Late Spring Threshold

Spring Day 15: What Can I Still Plant for Profit?

This is the classic edge-case question: on Spring Day 15, the wrong seed can lock your field into low late-season returns.

Spring Day 15 converts to daysLeft = 14 using daysLeft = 28 - (dayOfMonth - 1).

Run the exact Day 15 scenario here: /calculator?season=spring&daysLeft=14.

Top Picks (14 Days Left)

  • Potato

    Strong Day 15 default because a 6-day cycle still fits two harvest windows with stable late-season value.

  • Garlic

    4-day cycle lets you stack multiple harvest attempts in a 14-day window with low seed-cost risk.

  • Kale

    Simple one-cycle timing and predictable margin when you want fewer timing surprises.

  • Parsnip

    Cheap fallback for broad coverage when cash flow is tight after Day 15.

Baseline assumptions: no Speed-Gro, no profession bonus, direct crop selling.

FAQ

Is it too late to plant crops on Spring Day 15?

Not always. Spring Day 15 still leaves 14 days, which is enough for profitable fast-cycle crops in most baseline setups.

How many harvests can I get if I plant 6-day crops on Spring Day 15?

Usually two harvests. With 14 days left, a 6-day crop often fits two clean harvest windows if watering is consistent.

What should I plant with 14 days left in Spring for profit?

Start with potato and garlic. They are common Day 15 picks because they keep late-season gold/day competitive while staying low risk.
