Stardew Valley 1.6.15 crop guide
Best Greenhouse Crops in Stardew Valley
The Greenhouse changes crop math because season limits disappear. The best crop depends on whether you want low-maintenance weekly harvests, maximum Wine value, or fast machine throughput.
Quick answer
Ancient Fruit is the best default Greenhouse crop because it regrows weekly and fits Keg production cleanly. Starfruit has higher Wine value per bottle but requires seed buying and replanting. Pineapple and Strawberry are useful alternatives before a full Ancient Fruit setup.
