The Best Crops in Grow a Garden 2
There is no single best crop, because 'best' depends on whether you are optimising income, plot space, or how often you have to check in. Here are three rankings that answer three different questions.
Best by efficiency (value per kilogram)
This is the ranking that matters if plot space is your constraint.
| Crop | Value | Weight | Per kg | Currency |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Atlantic Giant Pumpkin | 300,000 | 7.5 kg | 40,000 | Leaves |
| Rocket Pop | 22,500 | 0.8 kg | 28,125 | Sheckles |
| Romanesco | 10,000 | 1.5 kg | 6,667 | Leaves |
| Maple Mushroom | 13,000 | 5.0 kg | 2,600 | Leaves |
| Mushroom | 13,000 | 5.0 kg | 2,600 | Sheckles |
| Honeysuckle | 3,800 | 1.5 kg | 2,533 | Leaves |
| Eclipse Bloom | 12,000 | 9.0 kg | 1,333 | Sheckles |
| Hypno Bloom | 9,500 | 9.0 kg | 1,056 | Sheckles |
| Sun Bloom | 9,000 | 9.0 kg | 1,000 | Sheckles |
| Maple Venus Fly Trap | 3,000 | 3.0 kg | 1,000 | Leaves |
These rankings span both currencies — the Currency column shows which. A Leaf figure and a Sheckle figure are not directly comparable, so read this as two rankings interleaved. Within one currency the order holds.
Best by raw sell value
Useful if you are growing one prestige crop rather than optimising a farm.
| Crop | Value | Weight | Per kg | Currency |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Atlantic Giant Pumpkin | 300,000 | 7.5 kg | 40,000 | Leaves |
| Rocket Pop | 22,500 | 0.8 kg | 28,125 | Sheckles |
| Maple Mushroom | 13,000 | 5.0 kg | 2,600 | Leaves |
| Mushroom | 13,000 | 5.0 kg | 2,600 | Sheckles |
| Eclipse Bloom | 12,000 | 9.0 kg | 1,333 | Sheckles |
| Romanesco | 10,000 | 1.5 kg | 6,667 | Leaves |
| Hypno Bloom | 9,500 | 9.0 kg | 1,056 | Sheckles |
| Sun Bloom | 9,000 | 9.0 kg | 1,000 | Sheckles |
| Moon Bloom | 8,500 | 9.0 kg | 944 | Sheckles |
| Amber Cranberry | 7,000 | 9.0 kg | 778 | Leaves |
These rankings span both currencies — the Currency column shows which. A Leaf figure and a Sheckle figure are not directly comparable, so read this as two rankings interleaved. Within one currency the order holds.
Multi-harvest beats single-harvest, usually
Of the 83 crops with published values, 73 are multi-harvest and 10 are single.
A single-harvest crop's value is the total return from that plot, ever. A multi-harvest crop's value is per cycle. Any ranking that puts them in one list without saying so is misleading — and most do.
Prime window matters if you play in bursts
Most crops hold prime for four minutes, then start losing value. A handful hold it far longer — the Atlantic Giant Pumpkin gives you thirty minutes, the Ghost Pepper thirty, the Venus Fly Trap fifteen.
If you cannot check in every few minutes, those are worth more to you than their sell value suggests.
