Quick answer
Plant tea. Biluochun wins spring (~25.6 gold/day), Maojian wins summer, Cotton tops autumn, and Jinjunmei - the best crop in the game - owns winter. Before Manor level 19, grow strawberries (spring), peanuts and watermelon (summer), and radishes or sunflower (autumn, level permitting).

How these numbers are computed
Each crop is simulated over a full 28-day season: growth days to first harvest, regrow days between harvests for multi-harvest crops (up to their cap, usually 5), replanting when a crop is exhausted, minus Grocery seed prices, using Best-quality (purple star) sell prices. The crop profit calculator lets you change quality tier, season length, plot count and Manor-level filters.
The community wiki also publishes its own ranking (gold quality over a crop鈥檚 full lifespan: Biluochun 20.4, Maojian 17.9, Cotton 15.2, Jinjunmei 21.6 gold/day). Our tables match its winners; small differences come from replant timing and quality tiers, as explained in the methodology.
Early-game priorities
- Manor 1-11: garlic and potato grow in any season; onions and wheat are cheap spring/summer fillers.
- Manor 12-18: strawberries (spring, Lv 12) are the first big earner at 37 base value.
- Manor 19: tea unlocks - from here, spring and winter become the richest seasons.
- Manor 27-30: summer tea (Maojian) and jasmine complete the set.
Frequently asked questions
What is the single best crop in Harvest Town?
Jinjunmei (winter tea) - the wiki鈥檚 own ranking puts it first at ~21.6 gold/day at gold quality, and it鈥檚 also the best greenhouse crop year-round.
What should I plant before I unlock tea (Manor level 19)?
Spring: strawberries (Lv 12) and beans; the calculator鈥檚 Manor-level filter shows your exact best options.
Are flowers worth growing?
Not for raw coins at Best quality they trail tea - but roses and tulips are loved gifts (check the gift planner), and lavender/goldenrod feed hive nectar production.
