Buying notes

  • Buy Pumpkin when you have crossed the 220 Shilling threshold and want your first taste of Rare-tier income without overcommitting your bankroll.
  • Compare against Grape Seed (170 Shillings, Uncommon repeat) — Grape's compounding repeat income overtakes Pumpkin after 2-3 cycles if you plan to stay active.
  • Time your Pumpkin purchase around mutation windows to squeeze the most value from the single-harvest payout.
  • Pumpkin nets 120 Shillings profit per harvest (340 minus 220), so the seed breaks even on the very first harvest with a 55% ROI — one harvest covers the full seed cost and leaves 120 Shillings pure profit.

Is Pumpkin Seed worth buying?

Yes, as your Rare-tier entry point. Pumpkin costs 220 Shillings and sells for 340 base, yielding 120 Shillings profit — a 55% ROI in a single harvest. It pays for itself immediately. However, it is single-harvest, so you must rebuy each time unlike Grape's free repeat cycles.

Pumpkin Seed vs Grape Seed — which is better?

Grape (170 Shillings, 260 sell, repeat) earns 260 every cycle after the first. Pumpkin (220 Shillings, 340 sell, single) earns 120 profit per harvest but requires replanting. Grape overtakes Pumpkin after 3 harvests. Choose Pumpkin for a quick Rare-tier payout, Grape for sustained Uncommon income.

When should I upgrade from Pumpkin to Watermelon Seed?

Upgrade once your bankroll exceeds 320 Shillings so you can cover Watermelon's 260-Shilling cost and still reinvest. Watermelon is also Rare single-harvest but delivers a higher base sell, so the per-harvest profit jump justifies the extra 40 Shillings if your funds allow it.
