Which tree fruit/nut is worth the most coins?
So, like title says, does anyone know which tree fruit/nut is worth the most per harvest?

If the crops and products stacked the same amount, it would probably be a little easier to tell individual worth. Trying to figure this out hurts my poor brain, haha.

also keep in mind that some need 3 days between harvests and some 5

hello compa!

I would tell you that the most expensive trees are the most profitable (the $7,000 ones, like cashew nuts). Keep in mind that by recycling 60 cashew nuts you will already get +700$ and that gives you “free” x2 every 5 days for each of your trees (2 boxes of 60 cashew nuts). The green apple tree, for example (1,180$ I think it costs) will give you 48 apples every 3 days or so (2 boxes of 24) and you can sell them for about 260$ each box, so in the end it gives you about 500$ every 3 days and the cashew nuts about 1,400$ every 5 days. In the long run, the more trees you have, the better.

Also keep in mind that they produce all year round, be careful not to buy the ones that only flower/grow in the fall (chestnuts, etc).

I have a spreadsheet on the official discord.

Bananas for raw money. Push into almonds when you are ready for baking. Chestnuts before fall if you are going to be brewing. Green Apples are used for brewing also but the goal is whiskey.

Hazelnut is used for a few events as a way to protect your reputation.
Thank you so much guys! Much appreciated!

Is it recommended to focus on specific crafts (Those that are worth the most) or is large variety better in the long run? For example:

If I was going to brew, like you said, would it be better to focus solely on whiskey, because it's the most profitable, or would variety be better in this case? Likewise with baking. Do the npc's even care about variety? Excluding events of course..

I often read (from the dev!), that the variety of items attracts more customers.

I never brewed or bought any whiskey, but I sold hundreds of bottles, haha. Fishing is great. :D

I have a minimum profit per sale I will use as a cutoff for variety. Some customers spawn wanting an exact item and if you don't have it you lose the customer and reputation. A few of them spawning in a row hurts your reputation but it will go back up pretty fast. Customers most of the time will pick random items on your shelves and buy those. The higher your average profit per item the higher your profit per day. The less items your carry the easier it is to manage your shop, storage, and production lines. Strawberry Chocolate from baking is a little expensive to make but the profit you will yield from it is super strong early in the game. You can make a cookie (case of almond, wheat, egg, milk) which gives 2, then a Strawberry Chocolate (Cookie, Honey, Strawberry) which gives you 2 of those and each case has 70 in it. The profit can exceed 10k per craft without holidays. Valentine's Day and Halloween they roughly double in value, Christmas they triple.

For brewing it depends on what time of year you are in. Independence day makes whiskey increase. Christmas makes win increase so try to have some of those ready for those holidays.

Indeed! I quickly discovered that fishing is good for both free beer and whiskey! Though, sometimes I find fishing too much to get a little boring x)

Thank you so much for the thorough explanation. I appreciate it. I think I'm going to try to focus on a few things. I found myself getting a little stressed out from trying to manage too many different items at once. I'll try keeping it simple and see how it goes :) Thanks for the help!

I really want to thank you again for the tip about the strawberry chocolate! I wanted to try it out, see if it was possible to get workshop and oven for the first christmas. I was able to get both and had juuuust about money for the things to bake one batch of strawberry chocolate. When I started the day I had a debt of about 500, and then ended the day with about 27k. I did NOT expect that! So thanks! Will definitely make more chocolates x)
