Lemon analysis

Lemon's 0.45kg base weight is the smallest of any mid-tier crop, which makes it a weight-scaling specialist: any Master Sprinkler growth multiplies its value hard. Cheap, multi-harvest, and a genuinely efficient early-game pick.

Value ranking

#30 of 40

Lemon is the 30th-most valuable crop by base value, and sits 1289% above the median for Uncommon crops (36 ₡). Its closest comparison is Pear at 553 ₡.

Value density

1.11K ₡/kg

Ranked #18 of 40 for Sheckles per kilogram. That heavy baseline works against you: the value formula rewards exceeding base weight, and a 0.45kg starting point is hard to double. Most of this crop's value stays locked at its baseline figure.

Seed payback

16 harvests

At base weight and default growth, Lemon returns 0.063× its 8K ₡ seed cost per harvest, so it needs 16 harvests to break even. Being multi-harvest, it keeps earning past that point without replanting. For reference, the best seed-to-value ratio in the game belongs to Carrot.

Harvest type

Multi-harvest

Lemon keeps producing after it matures, so the seed cost is amortised across every future harvest. This is what makes multi-harvest crops compound while single-harvest crops only ever pay once.

Lemon value FAQ

What is the base value of Lemon in Grow a Garden?

Lemon has a base value of 500 Sheckles at its base weight of 0.45kg, making it the 30th-most valuable crop of 40. That works out to 1.11K Sheckles per kilogram, ranked #18 for value density.

How much is a Gold Lemon worth?

A Gold Lemon at base weight is worth roughly 10,000 Sheckles (×20), and a Rainbow one about 25,000 Sheckles (×50). Because weight is squared, a 0.90kg Lemon would be worth four times its base value — 2,000 Sheckles before growth or mutations.

Is Lemon worth the seed cost?

Lemon costs 8K Sheckles per seed and returns 500 per harvest at base weight, so it repays itself in about 16 harvests. As a multi-harvest crop it keeps earning after that, which is where the real profit comes from.

Is Lemon a multi-harvest crop?

Yes — Lemon keeps producing fruit after it matures, making it far more Sheckle-efficient over time than a single-harvest crop of similar value.
