⏱️ Grow Time Scaling
Grow time scales with target fruit size. The time shown above is the base grow time for a 0.13 kg harvest. If you use sprinklers to grow a heavier fruit, the crop will take proportionally longer to reach full size — a fruit twice as heavy takes roughly twice as long to grow.
Weight & Value
A typical Onion weighs around 0.13 kg at harvest. Crop weight has a major impact on how much it sells for — the scaling is quadratic, meaning a specimen twice as heavy as average earns roughly four times more at the market.
Lighter harvests will be worth noticeably less than the base value, while an unusually heavy crop can multiply your earnings several times over. Always wait for the heaviest possible harvest before selling, and use our plants value calculator to see exactly what any given weight is worth.
Value by Stage
| Stage | Multiplier | Estimated Value | Time Online Required |

| 🌱 Unripe | 1× | ~220 | Immediately |
| 🌿 Ripened | 2× | ~440 | 2.4× grow time |
| 🌳 Lush | 3× | ~660 | 7.2× grow time |
Onion Strategy
Great early-game plant. Plant during Rain for Soaked/Flooded mutations to boost sell value. Community sprinkler tests used Onions as benchmarks: with one Basic + Turbo + Super Sprinkler, Onions reached up to 0.56 kg — nearly 4× the base weight. Adding multiple sprinklers of the same type showed no additional benefit.
