- Stardew Valley has tons of crops to choose from, including new crops from update 1.6. I'll rank the crops from every growing season based on overall profits and utility.
0:39 Ranking Criteria
2:09 Spring Crops
9:32 Summer Crops
18:09 Fall Crops
24:54 Winter Crops
25:32 Special Crops
29:02 Final Thoughts
One big upside of the 1.6 crops, especially the summer squash, is that they’re high energy. Salads had been a good benchmark for energy/gold, but squash beat them out. Available at a time when having a kitchen is questionable, they can be a lifesaver.
THIS, but for me it’s mainly carrots. You energy drains sooo fast early game, and since 1.6 carrots have been my go-to mining food, since they’re FREE, common, and low-maintenance (only 3 day growth time). Empathis on FREE since money is also a scarce resource eary game.
@@user-oi5sj2ok7z Carrots and Squash are both nice and actually have similar advantages but also some differences, both can be gotten free.
Summer Squash continues to give you more for a single planting since they are a multi-harvest crop, and after the initial growth period being double I believe the regrowth time is the same period of time. Which means you need to find less of them to keep yourself stocked up. It's slightly lower energy and health gained but actually higher sell value.
I'd argue that since it's low investment cost and fairly decent sell cost that Summer Squash is actually one of the better money providers beaten mostly by the things like the berries which give you multiples per harvest and are multi-harvest as well. Specially if you can get a decent supply.
I'd argue that for those that desire such things, the Carrot's all day buff to your horse speed is it's positive trade off, along with the fact that you first get it in Spring of Year one when your money is the tightest.
Justice for tulips!🌷We’ve all grown them in year 1 spring as gifts. You get a tulip, YOU get a tulip. EVERYONE gets a tulip!
I did grow a lot of them in my flowers and bees only game 😅
This sounds amazing! Do you do any other crops for the community center, or do you just go straight to flowers?
@@Kitadollx We definitely grow other crops for money and the community center. It’s just the last few days of spring when we’re like “ehh I COULD plant more parsnips, but tulips seeds are cheap too.”
4 days later…
Omg they’re so pretty with different colors… OMG 😱, it’s taking up 2 rows of inventory. I don’t have space for this and tomorrow is summer🤣
@@Kitadollx I went joja so straight to flowers. I did allow myself to grow other stuff in the greenhouse since bees weren’t an option there
I’m about to start year 3 on my first farm and I still haven’t gifted any flowers other than daffodils….i swear I don’t have a hoarding problem
I give coffee S-tier for the speed once you turn them into coffee. Also, if you get a bunch, it makes the Qi quest of selling 100,000g worth of food easy as you can just craft them into espresso.
Another thing that hops have going for them is that they are pretty decent for energy and health, especially considering how many you get with them having a daily harvest!
For gold per minute in the keg, coffee really can't be beat. I wish I didn't have to be around to put new coffee beans in every two hours though.
That's good idea to save up coffee for the Qi quest. Thanks for watching!
@@Kitadollx True, it's very labor intensive... if you don't have the automate mod 😆
@@Kitadollx What I did on a run or two was staggered the coffee plant harvests so I could get through all the coffee beans of the day in a single cycle. At the end of one two year run, I had the whole greenhouse full of them and had over half a million in Triple Shots (that I couldn't sell because my rules didn't allow it, heh)
I also had one run where I made millions with hops and pale ales. Took a lot of making kegs, but I eventually made enough of them to handle all my hops plants.
Automate mod for just this is also a great option if you can get past the feeling of not doing enough work for your earnings. Hehe
Easily S-Tier, simply due to the yield of the seeds that can be replanted. After two years of havesting only these in spring, build the keg shed, spending Winter making coffees, still have left over for four years later of daily caffeine use. By far, the easiest scalable crop production. The only reason I stop planting it, is because I am tired of harvesting thousands of beans.
Leah gives me coffee at least once a week
With the speed of scythe harvesting, I consider that a bonus. I'd also consider how many recipes the crop is used in for cooking.
havesting with scythe >>>> without is so much faster and satisfying
Okay, something is REALLY off.
I was watching this at nigh 2 AM as one does, barely awake and this witch starts talking about me falling asleep and the timing simply CAN NOT be a coincidence.
As someone who uses list videos to fall asleep, I’m just really stoked to hear that I made it into “voice to fall asleep to” territory 💕
Check inside your walls.
Another wheat apologist here! One thing I like doing with wheat is to plant a full scarecrow's coverage worth (I think it's about 260+ plants) on or before the first rainy day in summer. Then I just ignore them and wait until enough rainy days happen and then harvest. Really makes the trip to the chest to retrieve the scythe worthwhile at that scale, and gives my kegs something quick to process to make some decent short-term money. Can repeat through fall and use that same area for carrots or garlic in spring. Helpful in the first few years when you've got way more land than can be effectively utilized (especially on the beach farm with no sprinklers).
Interesting idea. I guess I've got some things to try with wheat. I have a hard time leaving things un-watered if it's sitting there, but maybe I can let it go knowing it's specifically the rain's job :)
Thanks for watching, and thanks for sharing the tip!
@@Kitadollx It can be very hard as the end of the season approaches and I have had to water them all by hand at least once before, haha. Btw, I absolutely love your content! Been great to hear a new voice in the Stardew UA-cam world and your videos are very thoughtful and engaging. Keep up the great work we are here for it!
that's a very clever idea! I'm about to start a new farm, I think I'll try this; it feels like an excellent early-game project. You get the farming XP on land you otherwise wouldn't yet have the resources to exploit, without having to water, a slight boost in income with a cheap buy-in cost, and you build up a stock of hay before you've built your first silo so that when you get your first livestock you have a bit of feed laid by already.
This is also an argument for parsnips. Currently playing on the beach farms, planting 400 of them seems the easiest way to get farming XP in the first spring.
@@Storm-li1re What's your method for getting the ~$8000 needed ASAP before missing the rainy days? I'm always low on money in my first spring
Ace list _exactly_ what I was looking for as a new-old player. One thing about sunflowers/seeds and corn - it’s pretty handy to have a small stock on hand during winter when it’s too cold for the pigs to find truffles outside for the oil maker. Prob not enough to push them out of c-tier as the cooking oil doesn’t even approach truffle oil re: gold and you’re prob better off just shipping the raw crops but I just like having the oil-makers active during those winter days so they are churning out something (anything!).
Thanks again for the list!
one of the best voices. it soothes the soul. it's the perfect, "stardew valley" vibe voice.
Tysm! You are too kind. Thank you for watching
I use parsnips in spring as universally liked gifts because green beans are annoying to me. But if we account for all seasons, eggplants is an insanely cheap gift that is universally liked. If you don't have any fruit tree going on, planting eggplants and not selling them all is a must!
I’m surprised by the ranking of wheat. It synergizes well with speed gro, and with just deluxe and kegging it’s about comparable to pumpkins for profit. If you’re profession switching or using the radioactive speed gro it’s actually the most profitable fall crop. I don’t usually go for it because of how labor intensive it is, but it’s perfectly viable and even ends up giving you a good bit of hay too.
I may have been a bit harsh on wheat. Good points and thanks for bringing them up!
I feel a lil flabbergasted by scythe-harvestong being considered a downside (don't we love the Iridium Scythe???? It's the same principle, isn't it???) but otherwise hell yeah to all of this. I do think Kale should be a B considering how it's just Very Good for rapidly building up EXP and money before the Strawberry apocalypse, that's all.
The real useful part of this video is that it absolutely affirms multi-harvest "berries" as amazing in general, which I already knew but I'm HAPPY TO BE RIGHT. I'm admittedly pretty surprised that green bean, tomato, and hot pepper being relatively good (not that I'd ever take them when the better choice is right there, but they're not trash like I thought they were (green bean maybe in my next playthrough though?? But I like strawberries...)). And. God. Next fresh playthrough, I need to form a Hops empire, don't I (Pam will get none of it)
Ha. Yeah, the scythe harvesting issue is a little exaggerated. Before getting all the backpack upgrades, the scythe is one of those tools that sometimes gets stored away to make room in the inventory. If you always carry it around, then it’s not a big deal (and you probably will once you get the iridium scythe). Don’t worry, it didn’t make or break any of the rankings ;)
Thanks for watching, and good luck with your hops empire!
@@Kitadollx Yayaya understandable. I do always, always, always get the backpack upgrade almost immediately specifically so I can lug around every tool simultaneously, and so, as they say, my experiences are a lil messed up. I GUESS MY THING IS JUST THAT I LOVE KALE AND POTATOES A LOT Y'KNOW...... Beautiful vegetables. It's sad that they're relatively meh, but spring is spring I guess, pff.
I forgot to mention that actually another very useful thing here is wait Cauliflower isn't just good?? I always assumed it was just good, but I'm glad to know that's wrong since I do never plant it because potatoes and kale are much easier to spam leading up to strawberry day
That's totally fair. I like corn way more than I should, and I plant it when there are better options out there, so I get it. Sometimes it's better to just enjoy the game and not worry about the money so much anyway :)
The amaranth is the most underated crop in the game. The max potential is worth of A tier or S. And carrots are good as an A tier crop not B. And pineapples despite being unlock late game they are still worthy of S Tier because you can also use it as food just because of how fast they regrow. I can explain why but stardew wiki explains that better than me
Still, please explain the amaranth bit.
I already agree with the other 2, but never found anything special about amaranth...
@@kunichuck if you use all the speed grow posible in late game in addition to the lvl 10 for an additional 10% speed from tiller profession . You will have 9 harvests compared to only 3 you will normally get. This means that you will get more things to process in kegs and more money overall than pumpkin or even starfruit. Since those require more time to grow meaning that you can't get more than 2 harvest with pumpkin even with speed grow
I love growing a lot of Sweet Gem Berries! Then I get a lot of money for very little work. I only sell the gold star ones and make seeds of the rest. I get a bit annoyed if I have to spend to much time harvesting and plantingn every day.
Gold star hops has been my sustenance before i unlock a good supply of cheese. Paired with their profitability, it really is amazing
Sunflowers are also the only flower that can be processed. Into sunflower oil. uping the sell value of normal and silver quality flowers. It processes in just 1 ingame hour meaning 24 per day, per machine. And since you HAVE to make an oilpress for truffle oil anyway you can just make it early and use it for sunflowers until you are ready for truffles. They deserve an easy B for that IMO.
I love sunflowers and I really tried to justify moving them up. You're right about being able to make oil. I just wish the process was easier. Running the sunflowers through the seed maker and then running them through the oil maker can be really time consuming. They are both fast processing methods, but also just slow enough that you kind of end up having to babysit them to keep them running. If it was an automated process, I'd definitely bump them up. Thanks for the great comment!
Well actually, silver quality sunflowers sell for 100g each, and so does sunflower oil, so it’s better to just sell silver quality without processing it, AND if you have tiller silver quality sunflowers are worth 110g each, meaning you’ll lose money if you convert them into oil and the oil does not (for some reason) get the artisan boost. So it’s only worth turning normal quality sunflowers into oil. (Unless you get lucky and get the sunflower to drop seeds and/or put the sunflower into the seed maker and get 2-3 seeds which you can then make into oil)
In defense of Parsnips:
They fit in perfectly to a year 1 Parsnip > Potato > Strawberry crop rotation
They're a cheap easy crop to stockpile for gifts so you don't have to fumble through storage looking for specifically loved gifts in everyday situations
Their short growth time lets you fit them into the end of Spring 2 easily. When you harvest other crops late in the season you can often just fit in a Parsnip harvest before Summer starts.
I would give them a B
Everyone seems to forget that profit per day doesn't exist in a vacuum. With a 4 day cycle you get to reinvest that money sooner so the total crop count increases quicker as well. In that sense, if you run the numbers they're basically on par with potatoes in terms of profit. The real downside is having to tend to more crops, but imo that's negligible early game where you need money for SO MANY different things. You aren't saving up for one big purchase, you need a coop, you need a backpack, you need to expand your farm, you want to start cracking geodes, upgrade tools, etc. So having that quicker reimbursement is actually really valuable year one
I like your analysis and from a profitability perspective I agree with most of your list, however I feel like some of these rankings are a little cost-agnostic. SDV has three primary Costs: Available Gold, Energy and Time. Ranking a crop with a higher gold ROI over a potential Energy or Time savings may not be more valuable to the player depending on their current context. Even the initial "free" parsnip seeds are a potential pitfall to the first 5 days in game.
I think the most extreme example of this is in your ranking of Wheat. Wheat from a profit standpoint is a D tier crop for sure, but what it lacks in profit it more than makes up for in Time and Energy specifically in the context of the transition of Summer to Fall year 1. If you are farming at scale at all large portions of your field will need to be cleared, re-tilled and watered before being planted Fall 1. Additionally all of the Deluxe speed grow you purchased for your Summer Crop harvests will be gone. However, with some planning wheat can be planted on the 26th and harvested via scythe (energy free) Fall 1; not only saving time and energy in labor but also preserving your 80g per tile investment at the cost of 10g. Its use-case is a bit niche for sure, but I cant personally call it low-tier crop.
I think you're right. On it's own it's not very good, but I may have under-valued some of the utility. These are some good points. I will have to try out some other uses for wheat in my next playthrough! Thanks for watching and thanks for the well thought out comment!
@@Kitadollx A lot of these considerations are more grouped into "Speedrunner strats" so an average SDV enjoyer may never even use them. If you haven't tried any yet I suggest trying a run where you script out your first Spring at least. its a totally different way to play the game and offers many new challenges over a more traditional run.
Thank you for putting these videos together. Quality content on SDV has been pretty sparse since 1.5 dropped and so your videos are quite refreshing.
Fertilizer no longer lasts through seasons I think
One particular reason I would rank hot peppers and parsnips slightly higher-
Hot Peppers- as soon as you get a barn and a couple cows, hot peppers can become pepper poppers assuming you've gotten to 3+ hearts with Shane (Which by the way, hot peppers are a loved gift for the lad so it's trivial to get him to 3+ hearts assuming you grow even like 20 hot pepper plants) The +1 farming skill will more than pay for the profit loss of using the cheese in the early game before you have the throughput needed to process everything, and it's one of the few easy ways to get a +1 speed buff in the relative early game before you can crystalarium spam to get rubies for spicy eels from the desert trader.
Parsnips- You need both a coop and a barn for chickens and cows, but once again, having a decent number of parsnips on hand for when you want some Farmer's Lunches (+3 farming), which will net you a ton of extra cash for the same reason the pepper poppers help, just way more on harvest days. And it's not even like you need to make a ton of Farmer's Lunches, just for harvest days.
Obviously, both of these case points fall off in the late game, bonus farming level doesn't help you once you have enough processing throughput to handle your crop output, and you'll generally prefer spicy eel over pepper poppers for the +1 luck rather than the +1 farming, but in the early - mid game, they're pretty great imo.
Note- I don't think that it'd be enough to take Hot Peppers into A tier, but it'd be on the higher end of B tier imo, but imo, parsnips should escape D tier with their utility in making Farmer's Lunches.
Pumpkin juice (med in the keg) is amazing for energy/health when one is in the mines.
or you can sell it and buy salad
@@nguyenquocanh9961 Or make Pumpkin Soup which only requires milk and you get huge boosts ;)
Dude, I love your thorough approach and your calm/clear delivery.
On a personal list, I would bump up coffee beans because of the in-house source of Triple Shot Espresso
Love your work!
What about recipes? Parsnip goes into farmers lunch which boosts gold gain from other crops etc.
Yeah, I missed that one. It's available pretty early and easy to make, so there's definitely an argument for saving your parsnips for that, and maybe bumping parsnips up the ranking a bit. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
Great list, but I'd give parsnips a bit more credit! They are a liked gift by most of the villagers and some even love it, so it's good for building friendship with villagers who have expensive items as their favourites!
Befriending Pam early with them means getting batteries in the mail, for instance.
I feel you are underestimating wheat as well. For one it can be made into flour. Second it processes in a little over a day (only beaten by mead) as compared to 7 for whine. It ages in casks at double the speed of wine only beaten by the cheeses too. While I agree that there are better options a C is well earned for wheat. And what do you mean ugh for needing a scythe? It is just so much faster why do you think there is a mod for sycthe harvesting all crops (spoiler alert: no longer needed with the new update because of certain endgame perks)
Yeah, you're probably right. It looks like I missed some wheat utility and it probably deserved better. Thanks for the comment, and thanks for watching!
Coffee is very complicated to calculate properly because of the fact that they give 5 seeds which can be replanted, so the profit/loss table will look very weird, making coffee unable to compare to any other crops around. However, in my opinion it is undoubtedly an S tier all around.
I once got a coffee bean from spring 11th in the mine and decided to make a coffee only run. By mid summer I managed to fill up 2/3 of my farm with just coffee and sprinklers. I spent fall and winter just making a ton of kegs and made a ton of coffee to drink and to sell. I made 2x more than my 'standard' farming playthroughs where I just went with the flow and did everything.
Now whenever I see a coffee bean for sale, I just buy it. 2500 for 1 seed sounds expensive, but you have to factor in the snowballing effect once the first plant matures, since you get 5 seeds every 2 days and you can immediately plant them all. Now I always keep 1 full stack of coffee beans to regrow every year.
Great video! thanks for making this is gonna help alot in my new playthru 1.6!
Thanks for watching and best of luck in 1.6!
Wheat got done dirty. One of my favorite crops, quick return, quick processing into beer which sells well and is a loved gift by many a town drunk, and I can plant massive fields of it at the end of summer that weren't used for blueberries to save myself having to hoe and water for fall. Plus all that extra hay you gather can be used for emergency stocking of your silos in winter, its a solid crop.
Pineapple S tier they are a very cool crop, you can grow them in a barn by planting them in garden pots. You are placing garden pots with a Dluxe Retaining Soil and that's it, they grow all year round, yield a harvest once a week and I immediately made wine from them, passive income once a week. Wheat underrated too, 4 days growth or less with fertilizer, beer making and huge income
Wow i never knew hops were so good. Something new to try on my next playthrough. Thanks!
Bok Choy is great for getting golden walnuts quickly for farming. After you get all the walnuts you can plant multi harvest crops on ginger island.
I love that you definied criterias for your tierlist first. Every tierlist that doenst do that is kinda worthless in my eyes. Great job!
None of this takes into account how important some of these crops are for gifting and for cooking, and sometimes for energy. Other than that, pretty reasonable ratings.
How aesthetic they look on the farm ~ flowers make everything look pretty 🌷🌻🌹🌸
I absolutely love ur visions ur voice….especially ur voice❤ It sorta puts me in a calming trance🥰
You're too kind! Tysm for watching
Thank you so much for this video!! It looks like you spent a lot of time making it and it turned out really good!!
With an eel pond, the hot pepper is a solid crop to make a lot of spicy eels, one of my staples for Skull cavern. There are definitely many recipes that use low ranking crops, probably to encourage you to grow them
Thank you for giving fairy roses the recognition they deserve
Super quality video, underrated channel!
Great video. I was surprised how little Subs and Views you have. You have a great Voice and Explaining-Speed. Keep it up!
[Spring]
Cauliflower> best (gold) chance for success in luau yr. 1, giant crop (decoration), required (day 1) for 20 strawberry (extra harvest opportunity) by completing a bundle in c.c. and quest
Garlic> used for dungeon crawl runs (opposite of monster musk), quest
Parsnip> easy liked for many villagers, quest/c.c.
Rice> needed for c.c., no watering when growing, free from dungeon drops
[Summer]
Melon> giant crop (decoration), quest/c.c.
Starfruit> Ginger Island (best crop)
Sunflower> buy joja market not in town, oil for dungeon crawl runs, quest/c.c.
Wheat> free hay, beer, quest/c.c.
Corn> oil for dungeon crawl runs, quest/c.c.
[Fall]
Beet> sugar -> Ginger ale (luck)
Fairy rose> best flower, makes things mature quickly, $$$/efficient only with time/not fiscally (dust)
Pumpkin> giant crop (decoration), quest/c.c.
Sweet gemberry> $$$, quest forest, c.c. (make 2 only, ancient is better).
[Winter]
Powder melon> giant crop (decoration), quest/c.c.
[Special]
Ancient fruit> best greenhouse crop (1 sprinkler), free in dungeon, regrow, takes time to get going. Efficiency.
Pineapple> wine, good option instead of starfruit (if not needing money anymore) on Ginger Island.
Nice video!😊
Coffee is underrated. They grow fast, when you get the keg you can brew coffee and sell it, plus drink it for speed buff. Even better, get the triple espresso recipe from Gus and brew & sell that. The turn-over is very fast compared to other crops and you’ll be rolling in gold in no time. I give them a solid A. 😂
After realizing how broken hops was turned me into a pale ale farmer in game. I put them in the greenhouse and got so many per day.
Kayle requiring a scythe is a bonus imo because of how fast you can harvest
If rice shoots were available to purchase in year one I honestly think it'd be at least an A-tier crop tied with Strawberries.
The shoots are cheap at 20g, milled rice sells for 100g, and you don't need to spend energy watering them. The only issue would be getting the four cloth for a mill, but that's easy enough with a recycling machine.
Hot take, Wheat should be at least A tier. Keeps my animals fed for a lot cheaper, grows fast, and I can turn the wheat into bread if my kegs are full and sell 300 bread for almost $30,000. I keep at least 2 full stacks of wheat seeds in my chests at all times.
Beware that all those calculations of money per day are valid only if you have more money than you need to spend on seeds. For example going for parsnips in the first spring will result in more money in the end than cauliflowers just because you will have much earlier harvest and can plant more again.
Needing a scythe to collect is not a problem - you collect everything with scythe once you have mastery skills unlocked on farming
extra points to crops that create cute outfits when used with cloth in the sewing machine!
Oh, yeah! I didn't take that into account, but maybe I should have. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching
Cool video. I'm a total newb to stardew but some of my friends are starting a multiplayer farm soon so I'm eager to learn more about the game. Plus I get to have my headphones in at work so it's multitasking lol
Lucky Lunches are the absolute best in the skull mines if you also have triple shots. Blue Jazz is at least a B, I'd make it an A personally.
Great video! Pumpkins are personally A tier for me since they are an easy loved gift for multiple villagers (Willy, Abigail & Krobus). Also just the fun factor of possibly getting a giant crop & being able to use them for crafting jack o lanterns, lol.
lmao just watch this yesterday midnight and i literally slept, thanks for the goodnight! as i rewatch this today, goodnight to u
very useful video, I'm glad to see my favorites (the berries) on the top haha
I really love trellis crops and don't find the trellises to be a problem; I'lI just co-plant a row of something else that can be walked through. I like doing double rows of hops with single rows of corn or sunflowers between, then swap hops out for grapes in fall. Sure, this isn't the most efficient way to time out harvests, but for anyone who's playing "normally" (ie not doing a challenge run), this is an easy way to keep everything accessible, and it looks really pretty to boot. I also really love the height and visual texture trellises add to my fields; same goes for irrigated crops, and I'll typically make an effort to get giant pumpkins for the same reason even though it ties up arable land while you wait for the magic to happen. Makes the farming feel like less of a slog if I have beautiful patchwork fields rather than a massive monoculture blanket, but if you're in a hurry to make money, large-scale monoculture is definitely more efficient.
thanks for another great video! I always love when you upload :)
Yeah, I'm totally with you there! It's not too hard to make a lot of money in Stardew, so I'm all for sacrificing a little of that to add some personality and aesthetics to the farm. It's always so cool to see beautiful farms that people really put thought into designing, rather than endless fields of the same crop :)
Thanks for watching
There are lots of niche use cases that make seemingly underwhelming crops good. Wheat has 2 great perks: 1 you mentioned preserving fertilizer but more importantly the hoed and sprinklered space. This is huge for building a pumpkin or cranberry boom Fall year 1. Second: harvesting wheat gives hay, which some animal obsessed players like me are always low on, until bonemeal late-game.
Yeah, I may have underestimated wheat initially. It probably deserves to be bumped up a bit 😊
Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
Grape in A tear? That is overrated IMO. Sure they can boost the junimos but that is all they are good for. The wine isn't even worth processing in kegs since there are many fruits and juices that make more money. a B tear at best.
Yeah before raisins in 1.6 they felt more like a cosplay crop. And still do. "Lookitme! I'm a vineyard farmer making classic wine!" And Sophia the cosplay nerd from Expanded mod grows them. Isn't that proof?
i would put wheat on B tier and maybe even higher because technically you don't need to water them since summer will usually have atleast 4 rainy days. considering it only costs 5g to buy a seed, and the fact that in your first summer you usually have a lot of empty space on the farm. I usually plant all of my spare gold's worth of wheat so maybe around 200 seeds or soo and just leave them alone. The fact that is harvested with a scythe is a good thing. Since now i can harvest this 200 wheat after 4 free rainy days with basically 0 effort. Its basically free 6000g if you sell the wheat right away, but if you have a shed full of kegs ready by fall, then its not soo hard to convert this free wheat into about 56000g all for 1 day's worth of tilling the ground and never having to water or put sprinklers.
Carrots definitely get an S from me because its just that buffer you need to make it further in the mines
Personally wheat is higher for me, the fact it also gives you hay is great! But granted I don't put as much merit on the xp and I use mine for beer almost exclusively
Speed is important, obviously. In the first year you can't afford to buy a bunch of coffee, but you can get cheese and you can grow peppers, and you can befriend SHane to get the pepper poppers recipe. Thus, peppers are an A for me
Carrots should be higher. You can feed them to your horse to increase the horses speed for a day. They give really good energy return and they grow absurdly fast. And you can buy them from the racoon later on for a maple seed.
The cauliflower deserves at least a 'B' for being able to be one of the big crops for a farm's late game aesthetic!
Did I miss any talk about large plants? Seems like that could be another thing to consider here. :) The only point I'll argue, is that coffee beans make the zoom zoom juice, and I like being zoomy. xD
Yeah, I probably should have included more about giant crops. With the low probability, they probably won't be a significant bonus to finances, unless you're really lucky and get a lot of them. They do make great decorations on the farm though, and if they do crop up, I'd probably keep them instead of harvesting. Thanks for watching!
@@Kitadollx That's fair. I'm not even completely sure how to get them. xD lol. You're welcome!
I like just letting the cranberries die on winter 1 than I just leave them over winter and clear them in spring one. This saves energy as I don't have to hoe the ground and cutting the dead cranberries down doesn't take energy
omg I've been looking for a video like this
Great, detailed and relaxing video! :)
How profitable are the mixed flower seeds and each of the wild seeds , coud you hold a whole playthrough just with these crops ?
Scythe harvest is the best way. Swipe and collect!
Ancient fruit wine is a great money maker
I'm a newbie here... How is your scythe not cutting down your plants?
Your voice is good for sleep, im a fan now
Thank you this is very useful!
Pumpkins and melons scale well with a low amount of jars
Did you factor cooking in these? There are a TON of recipes that you can't do without wheat flour or corn/sunflower oil.
To some extent yes, but certainly not deep enough to account for everything. Since you can buy wheat flour and oil at the general store, I weighted that a bit lower, but if you are doing a lot of cooking, making your own wheat flour and oil will save you a lot of money over buying them from Pierre. There are a lot of good recipes out there. Thanks for bringing it up and thanks for watching!
I love growing tulips
Are they useful? Not really, but they make my farm pretty
Rhubarb is hurt really bad by the fact that Starfruit are available in the same store… but 4 rhubarb make more profit than 1 starfruit… although once you get kegs then rhubarb, even though 4 rhubarb wine sells for more than 1 starfruit wine you can get more starfruit wine than rhubarb wine if you processed rhubarb in groups of four so starfruit still wins
I'm wondering if use in cooking (especially based on the stats in said dishes) could adjust any of these. Maybe I missed you mentioning rice or beets being milled or sunflowers being turned into oil, too. Idk if that would factor. This was very informative though. Thank you!
Watching this still playing 1.5 on ps4. I think we never get the 1.6 but well atleast i know what others get
0:01 hello everyone, have a nice day!
You never considered health and energy of these crops, and barely considered the gift advantagr
Winter crops. Most important.
Surprised you didn’t mention fairy dust as a use for fairy roses
I always have a hard time justifying fairy dust. The only thing I can think of that makes money is the gold to iridium step in starfruit wine in a cask. What do you normally use it for? Is it mostly for convenience and quests? Thanks for watching!
Salmonberries they are free and you can get hundreds, turn them into jelly and make bank, parsnips are good if you pickles them
You’re missing one crop to add on this list the qi beans
Anyone else grow flowers solely for the aesthetic and then gift them when the season is over? 😅🌷
All three types of berries are top tier.
Why?
Becuse the name of my farm is Breezeberry Farm. So it's a must to grow berries on it.
What are your thoughts on preserve jars in the first year? With the dehydrator is there any point to make more than 2 or 3 unless you invest into fishponds. I still have the habit of making 15-20 of them for the vegetables like the pumpkin in fall.
I like to have a mix of kegs, preserves, and dehydrators. It really depends on individual crop prices, quantities, and how much time you are willing to wait for your money. For example, if you have a few blueberries, a preserves jar will generally beat a dehydrator on profit per crop, but if you have 1000 blueberries, it might make more sense to churn through them quickly (~15 times faster) in a dehydrator. Hopefully that makes sense :)
Have you ever ranked trinkets from best to worst?
I haven't yet, but it's on my list for sure :)
Thanks for the good suggestion and thanks for watching
@@Kitadollx Your Stardew Valley videos are the best!!
rhubarbs are in the same tier as green beans???
I don't see a mention of the extra harvests from potatoes. Any chance you forgot to consider it, since they're generally considered the best year 1 option outside of strawberries
Oops. Didn't mention it, but yep, definitely counted that in the math. They are still one of the better options for spring, but that's not saying a whole lot, given how bad most spring crops are. For gold, they only really fall behind strawberries, carrots, and coffee beans, but all of those have supply issues early on. Thanks for watching and thanks for the good question!
New to Stardew Valley here- why is harvesting with a scythe not ideal?
@GamextraMC It's not really that big of a deal and it didn't really make or break any ratings. Before getting all the backpack upgrades, some people like free up inventory space by storing tools that they aren't using. The scythe is a common choice to leave behind in a chest, since it's only necessary for very specific crops and harvesting hay from grass. Thanks for watching!
I like pineapple for energy
Tomato and wheat are needes for making pizza. There for S tier =D
I think you put hops to high because I consider pam to be kind of abusive to penny and because penny has done nothing to deserve that I tend to grow poppys as a gift for penny
so dedicated TwT
was pretty good until every crop started going in B tier. Looking at the crops comparatively and long term the B-A-S ranking is a little meshed together
why is harvesting with scythe so bad. its more effecient
Where is sweet gem berry
Starfruit Valley
I dislike and love the fact she knew I wanted to sleep xD...
An amazing video overall :3
