⏱️ Grow Time Scaling
Grow time scales with target fruit size. The time shown above is the base grow time for a 0.07 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 Carrot weighs around 0.07 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.

Botanical Lore
Scientific name: Daucus carota
Daucus carota is a root vegetable typically orange in color, though purple, black, red, white, and yellow cultivars exist. They are the domesticated form of the wild carrot, native to Europe and Southwestern Asia.
Carrots weren't always orange; they were originally purple or white. The orange carrot was developed in the Netherlands as a tribute to the House of Orange!
