How Plant Values Are Calculated
Every crop's value in Grow a Garden follows this formula:
Here's what each variable means:
- Base Price — The standard value at 0.40 kg weight and 50x stock (varies by plant)
- Stock Multiplier — Current Fruit Price from Sam's Shop (1x to 100x slider; factor = stock / 50)
- Weight — Each crop has a random weight (0.01–1.50 kg); heavier = more valuable
- Mutation Total — Sum of all active mutation multipliers (additive stacking)
- Decay Factor — Fresh (1.0) or Decayed (0.5); see our decay timer guide
- Friend Boost — Extra 0% to 50% when selling with friends

How to Maximize Your Plant Values
Getting the highest possible value from your crops involves optimizing every factor in the value formula:
1. Target High-Weight Harvests
Weight is a random factor (0.01–1.50 kg), but heavier crops are worth significantly more. A 1.50 kg crop is worth 3.75× more than the standard 0.40 kg. Save your heaviest crops for selling during high stock multipliers.
2. Stack Mutations
Mutations are additive — stacking multiple mutations dramatically increases value. The best combo is Astral (×365) combined with Goldsparkle (×500) for a total of ×865. Read our complete mutation guide for all strategies.
3. Sell at Peak Stock
The Fruit Price stock multiplier ranges from 1x to 2x and refreshes every 5 minutes. Selling at 2x stock effectively doubles your income compared to 1x.
4. Avoid Decay
Harvested crops lose value over time. Sell within 8 hours to get full value, or use sprays to reset the decay timer . After 12 hours, crops become fully decayed and worthless.
5. Use Friend Boost
Selling with friends gives up to 50% extra value. Coordinate with your team to sell high-value crops together.
