Best Autumn crops ranked by Profit Per Tile/Day (PPT/day), with quick strategy for Day 1 vs mid-season.
Top picks (Crops/Flowers only)
Best strategy in 30 seconds
- Day 1: Autumn is peak ROI. Regrow crops tend to dominate the top ranks.
- Mid-season: Don’t plant slow growers late. Use the calculator to validate remaining days.
- Tip: If stamina is your bottleneck, focus on the highest PPT/day crops to maximize watering ROI.
Why we rank by Profit Per Tile/Day (PPT/day)
FoMT uses a 9-tile seed bag. A crop can look “best” by sell price, but still be bad ROI if seed costs block 3×3 expansion. PPT/day normalizes profit across the 9 tiles so regrow cycles and seed costs are compared fairly.
