THE USEFUL PART, FIRST

Choose crops for a purpose: an order, your shop or a planned experiment. Compare your own yield and cost figures instead of relying on an invented best-crop ranking.

Make each planting solve a problem

The game’s official description promises more than 100 crops and trait experimentation. That is the size of the game’s system, not a claim that this wiki has verified 100 crop records. Our launch edition does not fill that gap with guessed prices or growth times.

For each crop, record the seed cost, harvest yield and expected use. A crop needed for an immediate objective can be more useful than one with a higher listed selling price. Compare spare output separately from reserved quest stock.

A simple comparison you can reproduce

Enter your observed figures into the workshop calculator. Gross revenue is units sold multiplied by price per unit. Subtract the total costs you enter to estimate net proceeds. The calculation does not predict customers, crop modifiers, actual time to sell or future patch changes.

Use the same measurement period for two crops. Comparing one harvest with several harvests makes the result misleading even when the arithmetic is correct.

Verified cultivation milestones

The public achievement list records building 100 plots, producing a crop with all-gold genes, unlocking the underground garden, and expanding that garden one, two and three times. These targets confirm activities you can track; they do not supply the recipe or exact story trigger for reaching them.

Before automating a larger area

Test one area with the intended seeds and a healthy worker assignment. If a warning says seeds are depleted, inspect the planting selection. Keep an experiment note when changing traits so you can distinguish the result of a new crop from the result of a different setup.

Raintear Seeds and the seed-exchange fix

The official v1.0.2 notes identify Stella’s Store as the place to buy Raintear Seeds. Her shop appears later in the story with the Silver Key map. A missing shop is therefore a progression question, not necessarily a planting-assignment problem. Follow the Raintear Seeds guide before changing the farm layout.

The same update fixes errors when exchanging for crossbreeding seeds. Update before retesting an affected exchange, keep a separate save, and record the exchange and any error if it still fails. The note does not establish new crossbreeding formulas, prices, genes or guaranteed yields.

Raincry / Raintear: match the source version

The v1.0.3 English notice names Raincry Flower Seeds and the Star-Snow Shop; the earlier v1.0.2 passage above uses Raintear Seeds and Stella’s Store. Both notes describe later story access alongside the Silver Key map. Compare the seed and shop wording table before assuming a different English label means a different crop or missing seller.

The correction changes how to find the information, not any verified planting time, price or breeding probability.

Check crop-gene fixes before replanting

The v1.0.5 note covers several crop-gene problems and clearer shop/removal information. Use the Perennial, Stop Updating and Deeply Rooted checks to distinguish crop behavior from a saved setting or a misleading seed display. Do not rebuild a breeding line solely from a pre-update tooltip.
