The table below shows all the crops in the Stardew Valley and the price at which they can be bought in the store. You can find out how much time the crop grows. The list begins with the most profitable summer crops, which will make more money.
The lower the crop is in the table, the less profitable it is for cultivation. If you apply fertilizer to them, the crop will be many times more. Don’t forget to look at the timing when the season starts.
You can plant something in a short time to get the maximum profit, and then grow some vegetables or fruits to gather up money for quality seeds for better profits in the future.
| Crop | Seed Cost |
Grows | Sell | Profit | $ per day |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strawberry | $100 | 8 days | $120 | $20 | $11.67/day |
| Strawberries are only available at the Spring Egg Festival and continue to produce every 4 days after matured. If planted at the start of next spring, they would yield $720 worth of strawberries by end of spring and have an even higher profit margin. | |||||
| Rhubarb | $100 | 13 days | $220 | $120 | $9.2/day |
| Rhubarbs are available via bus to the desert, only after you’ve completed the Vault Bundles (one of the last) at the Community Center. | |||||
| Potato | $50 | 6 days | $100 | $50 | $8.3/day |
| Potatoes have a 25% chance at a 2nd potato when harvested, so we multiply the base value of $80 by an additional 25% to get this number. | |||||
| Cauliflower | $80 | 12 days | $175 | $95 | $7.9/day |
| Cauliflower can become a giant crop by being placed in a 3×3 grid, yielding double. Having larger patches makes this more likely to happen at least once. | |||||

| Green Bean | $60 | 10 days | $40 | -$20 | $6.4/day |

| Garlic | $40 | 4 days | $60 | $20 | $5/day |
| Parsnip | $20 | 4 days | $35 | $15 | $3.7/day |

| Red Cabbage seeds are only available at the general store from Year 2 Summer onward. | |||||
| Melon | $80 | 12 days | $250 | $170 | $14/day |
| Melons are an attractive option. They can become giant crops if you place them in large patches (3×3 minimum) and yield double, so you may be surprised with even more profit! Giant crops are harvested with the axe. | |||||

It manages a scant $1.9/day if you only plant it for one season and manage 4 harvests (it is available every 4 days after maturity). Corn is involved in two bundles, so I’d advise you to buy a few and fertilize them so that you can get a gold star Corn for Quality Crops and an extra for the Fall Crops Bundle. | |||||

| Sunflower | $200 | 8 days | $80 | -120 | -$15/day |
| Sure, Sunflowers belong low but they’re not the worst crop. You *may* get up to 3 sunflower seeds by harvesting these. So they can be planted again, free. It comes out to where you get just about the same amount that you planted in my experience. So you can continue Sunflowers for a long time after buying some. | |||||
