'''Deluxe Speed-Gro''' is a [[Fertilizer]] that speeds [[Crops|crop]] growth by 25% (or a total of 35% with the [[Skills#Farming|Agriculturist Profession]])<ref name="speedincrease" />. It can be [[Crafting|crafted]] or purchased from [[Pierre's General Store]] for {{price|150}} from year 2 onward, or purchased from the [[Oasis]] for {{price|80}} on Thursdays. Ten Deluxe Speed-Gro may also be received as a gift at the [[Feast of the Winter Star]].

Up to 100 Deluxe Speed-Gro may be purchased from [[Demetrius]]' [[Desert Festival#Villager Shops|shop]] at the [[Desert Festival]] for {{Price|2|Calico}} [[Calico Egg]]s.
    
Deluxe Speed-Gro can be placed on tilled soil ''before or after'' planting a seed, or at any stage of crop growth. It does not reduce time between harvests for multi-harvest crops.

==Deluxe Speed-Gro Cost==

Applying Deluxe Speed-Gro days after planting a seed still decreases the time it takes to fully grow, but it reduces a fixed amount of days per stage for each crop regardless of the day it's applied, and the reduction in stages that the crop has already passed will not retroactively apply. Combined with the fact that the reduction disproportionately affects earlier stages more, this means that its reduction to the rest of the growth time is much lower than the advertised percentage of 25%.<ref name="speedincrease2" />.
Crafting Deluxe Speed-Gro is always cheaper than purchasing it.  The table below compares the cost of crafting 5 Deluxe Speed-Gro against purchasing the same amount at the [[Oasis]] or [[Pierre's General Store|Pierre's]]. The cost of crafting is the sell price of the constituent ingredients.

However, [[Oak Resin]] is a contested ingredient if the player is also expanding their supply of [[Keg|Kegs]]. The price of Deluxe Speed Gro at the [[Oasis]] (80g) is already cheap enough that it can "pay for itself" in many scenarios, and the player can only acquire vast/unbounded quantities of Deluxe Speed Gro by purchasing it.

  −
For example, in the scenario of growing [[Starfruit]] in the [[Greenhouse]] for wine, The amount of additional starfruit produced in the limited growing area can be increased by ~45% using Deluxe speed grow. Assuming unlimited availability of [[Keg|Kegs]] for this calculation, each Deluxe Speed-Gro used results in 2250*0.45=~1012g of additional profit, while only costing 80g to purchase.

<ref name="speedincrease2">The change in phaseDays in <samp>HoeDirt::applySpeedIncreases</samp> is static regardless of the date of fertilizer application relative to the date of planting. This means that applying fertilizer after planting only affects the current stage and any stages thereafter, in the same way that applying at the same day as planting affects those stages.</ref>
