Lava
Lava is a Legendary multi-harvest Forgotten Isle plant. Post-rebalance stats: 30 minute grow, 12 minute fruit regrow, 0.6 kg base weight, 44 Pearls base value (132 at Lush). Lava wild nodes require a Scimitar (Cutting tier 3, 8,000 Pearls from Roger) and each node drops 1 Lava Seed before a 300-second respawn.

⏱️ Grow Time Scaling
Grow time scales with target fruit size. The time shown above is the base grow time for a 0.6 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 Lava weighs around 0.6 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× | ~44 | Immediately |
| 🌿 Ripened | 2× | ~88 | 2.4× grow time |
| 🌳 Lush | 3× | ~132 | 7.2× grow time |
Lava Strategy
Lava is the first true late-game island crop. The 0.6 kg base weight is the heaviest of any island plant, so sprinklers scale value dramatically — combined with the Molten mutation (5× from Volcano Eruption), a Lush Molten Lava fruit can outperform Mainland late-game crops by several factors. The 30-minute grow time and 12-minute regrow reward long online sessions.
