Stardew Valley Crop Guide – Seasonal Crops, Sell Prices, & Best Things To Plant

Crops are vital to running a Stardew Valley farm, and this guide shares details for every seasonal crop, sell prices, and which are the best.

Your crops in Stardew Valley are seen as the lifeblood of your farm. They’re going to create the foundation of your funds throughout your playthrough, and for most players, they’re the things you care about the most to take care of each day. Without a good variety of crops to take care of while you play, you can expect to have little money to use on activities or to expand your farm.

There are multiple crops that you can grow throughout the four seasons in Stardew Valley, but it can be difficult to keep track of every little detail. Here’s what you need to know about every seasonal crop, how much they sell on the market, and the best crops to plant while playing Stardew Valley.

Not every crop grows throughout the year. However, if you get a Greenhouse and add it to your Stardew Valley farm, any crop can be grown in there, so long as you have seed. This is the one workaround to have certain plants growing on your farm regardless of the season.

When you want to lay out a section of land to begin planting your crops, you will want to make sure you’ve tilled the land using your Hoe tool. After that, a seed can be placed down in that tilled spot, so long as it is in the correct season. Before placing down a crop, I recommend layering the soil with any type of Fertilizer to improve the chances of a higher-quality crop. There’s still a chance the crop won’t grow into a quality version, and it could end up costing you money, but it’s better to buy these items in bulk while playing Stardew Valley and increasing your chances.

After planting the seed of a crop in Stardew Valley, make sure to water it every day unless it rains. Eventually, the crop will be ready for you to harvest, and you can choose to keep it in a storage item or sell it directly on the market. There are four types of crop qualities you could sell to the market: Normal, Silver, Gold, and Iridium, with Iridium being the highest quality, and the most difficult to attain.

Every Spring Crop & Sell Prices in Stardew Valley

Spring is the first season you playthrough in Stardew Valley. There are several crops that you can choose to plant in your garden, but ultimately the second year of spring will likely be the most important for most players. This occurs after a full year of the game, and you’ve developed a sustainable foundation for your farm.

Here, we’re going to share every crop you can grow in the spring while playing Stardew Valley, and how much you can make selling them to the market. We’re also going to share how long it takes to grow them.

The best crops you can make during the Spring are going to be Potatoes, Strawberries, and Cauliflowers.
