THE LOOP

Five actions, in order

  1. 1
    Take an affordable river seed

    Oak is free. Pine is the first paid Common seed at $25 in the checked table.

  2. 2
    Plant it on your plot

    The plot is where the seed becomes a crop you can harvest.

  3. 3
    Let it grow

    Do not spend the whole run browsing menus while the weather changes.

  4. 4
    Harvest before lightning

    Once the crop is ready, delay adds risk without improving the base loop.

  5. 5
    Reinvest one step at a time

    Move to the next seed your cash actually supports.

LIGHTNING RULE

Lightning can destroy the crop before harvest. Treat a ready crop as a decision now, not something to leave on the plot while you search for a perfect route.

FIRST CASH

Use price bands, not hype

A practical opening is Free Oak → $25 Pine → the $200–$500 Rare band → the $10K–$20K Epic band. If your cash cannot reach the next band, repeat the current loop instead of waiting for a Legendary spawn you cannot buy.

$0–$500

Learn the timing

Oak, Pine, Apple, Peach and Fig keep the first decisions cheap.

$10K–$20K

Build repeatable cash

Orange, Lemon and Avocado form the Epic price band.

$2.5M+

Check before you commit

Legendary and higher seeds jump sharply in cost and spawn rarity.

BEFORE REBIRTH

Use valuable inventory first

Rebirth removes current cash and seed inventory while previous unlock progression stays. Plant or use valuable seeds before you confirm the reset.

NEXT ROUTES

Continue by the problem you have

Your repeatable loop is river seed → plant → grow → harvest before lightning → reinvest.
