Stardew Valley Crops by Season
Every main crop in Stardew Valley by season – how many days it takes to grow, which ones regrow, and where to get the seeds – including the 1.6 crops.
Farming is the heart of Stardew Valley. Each season has its own crops, and most of them die when the season ends – so plant early and plan ahead. Use the buttons to show only crops that regrow after harvest. Days are the base growing time without fertiliser or skills.
