🍅 Tomato

Tomato is an Uncommon multi-harvest plant in Sam’s Seed Shop at 200 Sheckles. It has a 100% appearance chance — always available — and earns 9 Sheckles per kg base. The community guide at games.gg confirms Tomato and Bamboo as the two Step 3 targets in the early progression sequence, after establishing Common crop income. Tomato attracts mutations quickly and sells at a solid price relative to its 200 Sheckle seed cost. Multiple sources cite it as the most useful Uncommon crop specifically because it multi-harvests and is always in stock.

Tomato has been available since Release — June 12, 2026. This page updates if availability changes or the source rotates out.

Buy from Sam’s Seed Shop at 200 Sheckles. Always in stock at 100% appearance chance — you will never need to wait for a restock cycle. Buy as many as your plots allow once you have cleared the Strawberry and Blueberry phase.

Tomato grows into a multi-harvest crop that produces red fruit repeatedly from one seed. Each fruit earns 9 Sheckles per kg base. Water before picking. Tomato reportedly attracts mutations faster than most early-game crops — community guides cite this as a reason to prioritise it before Bamboo (700 S seed) if you want to experiment with mutation mechanics early.

Tomato vs Tulip (40 S seed, 60 S avg, single-harvest): Tulip earns more per kg base (60 S vs 9 S) but Tomato multi-harvests and costs 5× more seed-wise. For pure base ROI, Tulip wins. For plot efficiency across a session without replanting, Tomato wins. In practice: buy Tulip first (it is the community’s recommended first Uncommon), then transition to Tomato as a filler while you save for Bamboo (700 S).
