The Rare Seed is a type of seed. A mature plant yields a Sweet Gem Berry.

One to five Rare Seeds can be purchased at the Traveling Cart for data-sort-value="1000">1,000g each during Spring and Summer. During any season, there is also a 1.26% chance that the merchant will be selling 1-5 Rare Seeds for data-sort-value="200"600–1,000g each. (It is possible for Rare Seeds to occupy two slots in the merchant's offerings in Spring and Summer). Rare Seeds can also be obtained by using the Seed Maker.

Despite the description stating that this seed "takes all season to grow", it takes only 24 days. If using fertilizer that speeds crop growth or having the Agriculturist Profession, it will take fewer days.

Tips

The Seed Maker creates an average of two seeds from one Sweet Gem Berry 97.5% of the time. Since a Sweet Gem Berry is worth at least data-sort-value="3000">3,000g, each Rare Seed produced from the Seed Maker is created at a cost of data-sort-value="1500">1,500g to data-sort-value="3000">3,000g depending on the quality of the input. This makes the maximum price of data-sort-value="1000">1,000g at the Traveling Cart a much better buy, even though the quantities offered there are limited.

Notes

A Livin' Off The Land tip (Fall 1, Year 2) informs the player that Rare Seeds take only 24 days to grow, and not a full season (28 days).
