All 160 Crops and Mutations in Harvest Moon: Echoes of Teradea

Crops are the vegetables, grains and related plants you grow on your farm in Harvest Moon: Echoes of Teradea. You plant seeds, keep them watered, harvest them when they are ripe, and sell them or ship them for money. The bigger twist is mutation, where planting a crop in a different region's soil turns it into a new variety with its own best seasons, price and seed.

How Crops Grow and Get Harvested

Every crop has a home soil and a set of seasons where it does best, and both affect how well it grows. Growing times vary quite a lot. Quick crops like turnips and onions are ready in three days, while pineapples, potatoes and pumpkins take six.

Crops also differ in how often they pay out. Most give a single harvest, and then you plant again to get more. Regrowing crops give two or three harvests from one planting, with two days between each one. Potatoes and tomatoes give three, while strawberries and corn give two.

Crops need watering every day unless it rains, and Tidewind's rain covers the whole region, so crops there need no water at all. You can upgrade your watering can to cover more tiles at once, which helps on bigger farms. Tools are picked for you, so you never have to switch. The hoe comes out for untilled soil, seeds go into tilled soil, and your character harvests fruit once it is ripe.

Fences can be built right away at the crafting table if you have the right wood. They do more than stop crop theft, and in town they help plots survive storms.

Crop Families and Soil Mutations

Crops are grouped into families. Each family starts with a base crop, such as Asparagus, Carrot, Green Bell Pepper, Strawberry, Tomato or Wheat, and the mutations that come from it stay in the same family.

The soil decides which variety you get. The same seed can turn into different crops depending on the farm you plant it on. Yellow Bell Pepper is a good example: planted on Bloomfield soil it becomes Magic Bell Pepper, on Tidewind soil it becomes Bitter Bell Pepper, and on Quarrytop soil it becomes White Bell Pepper. Planting that seed on a farm without the matching soil gives you the plain crop, and rotating your crops can't make up for it.

Each region has its own soil, and Harvest Goddess Forest has mutations of its own. Desert and volcanic soils are a special case with their own fertilizer needs. To see every mutation a crop can produce, open the encyclopedia. It sits on the sixth tab of the menu, under a book icon with a sprout on the cover, and each base crop's entry lists all of its possible mutations.

How to Get Crop Mutations

Getting a mutation takes a few steps. Buy the base seed from the right store, carry it to a farm whose soil matches the variety you want, plant it there, and harvest what grows. Carrots show the idea well. The seed is sold at the Bloomfield General Store, and planting it in Quarrytop soil gives you Snow Carrot.

Once you have harvested a variety, the Traveling Merchant can sell its seeds at campsites. That means you can grow it again without starting from the base crop.

Desert and volcanic mutations are the exception. You must apply Desert Fertilizer or Volcano Fertilizer to the crop every day, though you can plant it on any of your normal farms. Fertilizing daily is what works, even though a mutation sometimes succeeds without it. Keep desert and volcanic plots at least one plot apart so the two fertilizers don't get mixed up.

The farm you use matters too, because each farm has a different number of plots. Bloomfield has 204, Maplehill 98, Tidewind 54 and Quarrytop 50. Producing a few of a rare mutation takes far longer on a 50-plot farm than on one with 204, so a bigger farm gets you there much sooner.

Where to Buy Crop Seeds

Starter seeds are cheap: Turnip, Carrot, Onion and Wheat seeds cost 5 to 10 G, and mutated seeds cost more. Some seed lines have a stock limit in the tens, like 20 or 30, while others have no limit.

The main seed shops are the Bloomfield General Store, open 9 AM to 6 PM and closed Thursdays, Eileen's General Store in Tidewind, open 8 AM to 6 PM and closed Tuesdays, and Heather's General Store in Quarrytop, open 9 AM to 6 PM and closed Tuesdays. The Maple Mart in Maplehill is always open. Store hours are worth knowing, since a wasted trip is a wasted day.

The Traveling Merchant is also always open, but some crops only appear when the merchant is at a particular spot on the map. Some seeds are tied to one region. Pumpkin seeds appear at Heather's General Store after you complete Quarrytop Chapter 1, and San Marzano seeds sell for 55 G each at the Maple Mart.

The Most Valuable Crops

Shipping pays 10% more than selling at a shop, and a crop's quality changes what it earns. Pineapples are the clearest example of high value, since every pineapple variety ships for hundreds of gold, and the dragon and gold barrel forms are among the top earners. The catch is that each pineapple gives a single harvest, so it is a one-time payout for its plot.

Desert and volcanic mutations also sell well, with Lavaman watermelon as one example.

Crops Needed for Quests and Unlocks

Mutations are used to unlock a long list of things, so it pays to grow them on purpose instead of harvesting whatever happens to show up. The main quest asks for five each of Magic, Bitter and White Bell Pepper. The Harvest Goddess Statues want three each of Alraune, Desert Lettuce, Maiden's Heart and Princess's Eye.

The Maple Mart furniture set needs three Snow Carrot for the refrigerator, and the Bloomfield Colorway asks for three Salad Onion. Every crop on that list is a mutation, so getting the right soil matters as much as getting the seed.
