− | It is more profitable to use Quality [[Fertilizer]] than Deluxe Speed-Gro, since Speed-Gro fertilizers do not decrease the time between harvests. Cranberries' growth rate from Deluxe Speed-Gro (~0.25%) will drop from 7 to 5.25 days, but the amount of yields per season after that point is still 4. | + | It is more profitable to use [[Fertilizer]] than Deluxe Speed-Gro, since Speed-Gro fertilizers do not decrease the time between harvests.

Using [[Quality Fertilizer]] is more profitable if you craft it yourself. Otherwise if you decide to buy fertilizer, [[Basic Fertilizer]] would be more profitable.

− | | |
− | [[Deluxe Speed-Gro]] or [[Speed-Gro]] are useless for this crop, you still have only 5 harvests time per season.

− | [[Quality Fertilizer]] or [[Basic Fertilizer]], that depend on if you need to pay them. | |
− | If you need to pay for them [[Basic Fertilizer]] is better.

− | If you don't need to pay for them (craft), [[Quality Fertilizer]] is better
