Grow a Garden Bean

Bean is the common legume that quietly funds the rest of the garden — 29 Sheckles base, trellis-friendly, and strong when you treat pods as volume inventory instead of a trophy plant.

Base value

Bean value by weight

Bean has a base value of 29 Sheckles at unit weight. Because sale value scales with weight squared, the table below shows the raw sell and the same crop with Golden or Rainbow growth applied at common harvest weights.

Mutations & weather

Legume rows respond well to Pollinated (×6) when bee-path routes cross the trellis and to Windstruck (×3) on open layouts. Beanbound (×39) is an event tag tied to Beanstalk-style windows when that content is live — use it if the patch enables it, otherwise farm clean. Growth still allows only one of Golden, Verdant, or Rainbow.

Farming loop

Plant Bean in multi-vine beds so pollinator coverage hits several pods in one pass. Push kilograms on ordinary weather; reserve mutation camping for weeks when Pollinated or Beanbound is actually available. Harvest in batches for liquidity while rarer seeds finish.

Bean strategy

Trellis density for common legumes

Bean rewards density. One oversized vine looks impressive, but three medium vines finishing in the same session usually move more Sheckles and teach habits that transfer to Green Bean and Pea.

Keep sprinkler coverage even across the trellis. Starving the back row to inflate one front pod tanks average kilograms for the whole bed.

Cashflow role before Beanstalk ambitions

Beanstalk at 255 mythical base is a different economy. Bean at 29 exists to fund seed restocks and fertilizer while you practice legume layouts. Do not judge Bean by mythical comps.

When bundling with Green Bean or Pea, match weights roughly. Mixed light-and-heavy lots invite lowballs on the weakest pod.

Common questions

Should I plant Bean or Green Bean for cashflow?
Green Bean’s 31 base is slightly higher; Bean’s 29 is close enough that seed stock and trellis space matter more. Run both at your typical kilograms if you are unsure.
Can Bean keep Beanbound outside Beanstalk events?
Beanbound is event-tied. Outside those windows, prioritize weight and a single growth variant rather than inventing a substitute tag.
