Does Precision Cut reset if crop regrows without replanting?

Typically first harvest per planting cycle — regrowth without replant may not reset on multi-harvest crops. Verify per crop type in database.

Is Mantis better than Fox for sell value?

Fox boosts first daily sell globally; Mantis boosts first harvest per crop cycle. Different triggers — can run both on rotation-heavy accounts.

First harvest of each crop carries a value spike — Mantis Precision Cut captures that bonus before subsequent harvests normalize downward.

Mantis weight progression

Mantis hatches at 0.4 kg and grows with the formula W = (hatch ÷ 11) × (age + 10). The table below projects its weight at each age milestone so you can plan trade timing and weight targets.

Mantis weight by age

Age 1	0.40 kg
Age 25	1.27 kg
Age 50	2.18 kg
Age 75	3.09 kg
Age 100	4.00 kg
Age 125	4.91 kg

Playstyle

Mantis rewards crop rotation discipline. Precision Cut adds sell value bonus on the first harvest of each crop instance — replanting after harvest resets the bonus. Cycle multiple crop types so Mantis always has first-harvest targets ready. 0.4 kg light rare needs age investment.

Weight & trading

0.4 kg hatch weight is light for rare tier B. Precision Cut bonus scales primarily with age and crop base value — weight secondary. Age Mantis to 40 minimum before expecting noticeable first-harvest premiums.

Precision Cut applies bonus sell value on first harvest of each crop per growth cycle. Resets on replant. Does not affect second harvests on multi-harvest crops — check crop type tags. Pairs with rotation schedules rather than monoculture leave-and-reharvest.

Rotation schedule design

Stagger plantings across crop types so one crop hits first harvest every session while others mature. Mantis idle time equals poor rotation planning.

Precision Cut multiplies with crop mutation tags on first harvest — apply mutations before first sell for maximum Mantis plus mutation stack.

Multi-harvest crop caveat

Crops with multiple harvests per planting only trigger Precision Cut on first pick — subsequent picks sell at base rate. Factor this into crop selection for Mantis plots.

Mantis tier B for narrow mechanic — generalists prefer Fox or Raccoon; rotation specialists swear by Precision Cut returns.
