How to Farm Money with Crops:
-----------------------------
Written by noseapus
My method and reasoning on the easiest way to make millions from farming.
-=Early Game Tips (money limited)=-
At the beginning, you will probably be limited by money.
* Sell everything you can (including the furniture in your house), and invest
all your money in seeds.
* Flowers can be foraged, so do not buy them.
* Regular crops give a 9.4-10.4% return on investment per day, but crops
which regrow only give 4.7-5.5%. (Excluding milling, but including cooking.)
* If milled into sugar, Sugar Cane gives 14.0% return on investment per day.
* However, this requires you to repair the general store. By this time, your
limiting factor will probably be energy.
* Even when milling, crops which regrow are still less return than regular
crops. Growing flour, milling it and then cooking bread only gives a 6.4%
return on investment per day
-=Mid Game Tips (stamina limited)=-
Until you have plenty of good food, you will be limited by the energy needed
to plant crops. The cheapest source of stamina is the Bathhouse.
Per tile of land, crops which regrow will be most profitable (so long as they
are planted on the 14th of the season or earlier).
-=Get good food=-
Some food gives more stamina for its cost. Particularly good are Baked
Sweetroot, Trail Mix, Monster Mash. Many of the dishes cooked from a single
ingredient are good, are easy to craft, and their recipes are obtained by
selling the ingredient.
-=Get the Farming and Cooking Skill Perks=-
These will increase your profits.
In particular, the ‘Restorative Cooking’ perk will give a small fraction of
your cooked dishes the Restorative infusion. When eaten, you will have some
stamina regen for 2 hours. Take advantage of this by growing crops can be
easily cooked:
* Spring – Turnip and Potato
* Summer – Corn and Tea
* Fall – Cranberry, Sweet Potato and Broccoli
* Winter – Beet and Cauliflower
Get a silver watering can early.
You do not need to go deep in the mines. About once a week, Balor’s Wagon
has Silver Ingots for sale for 500t each. Once you are level 16, you can
craft a silver watering can. This can plant 18 seeds at a time.
-=End Game Method=-
Manually watering your crops takes time and stamina, so does not scale well.
Instead, just let the rain water your crops.
-=Summon Rain=-
After reaching floor 21 of the mine, the dragon statue Caldarus grants you
the spell Summon Rain. It takes 4 days to generate the mana for this. Of
course, do not summon rain on rainy days.
Mana Potions are sometimes found in mines treasure chests. These give enough
mana to Summon Rain once.
You should have enough rain to grow any crop within a season, or several
rounds of the crops which grow quicker. To get better profits from crops
which regrow, only plant them in some seasons. Save up your mana so that
you can summon more rain whilst they are growing.
-=Fill your farm with crops=-
There are 3230 farmable tiles. This method works with just a portion of t
he farm used. I recommend filling as much land as you can afford seeds for,
until you have your desired amount of money.
Here are some example seed costs to fill your farm with different crops:
Crop Cost (t)
--------------------
Turnip 80 750
Potato 129 200
Cabbage 226 100
Strawberry 969 000
-=Use the Superb Sower skill perk=-
This lets you spread 54 seeds at once. Unless it rains, you don’t need to
plant all your seeds on the first of the month.
By initially sowing several different kinds of crop, you can stagger the
days on which you sow a second round.
-=Harvest crops with scroll wheel=-
If you bind ‘interact’ with scroll up and scroll down, you can harvest all
your crops by walking around and continuously scrolling. Once you are done,
bind ‘interact’ to whatever it was before.
Buying the seeds in bulk is less simple. You could use an external auto-
clicker or macro, or perhaps you have learned an advanced clicking technique
like drag-clicking. I hope the devs implement a way to buy or cook things
in bulk without getting RSI (repetitive strain injury).
