What is Sunburst Melon?

Sunburst Melon is a legendary, passive-cadence permanent seed in the fruit family. Each owned copy supports one simultaneous crop. Harvesting yields produce and makes that seed copy available to plant again; the permanent seed is not consumed.

Planting and harvesting explains seed copies, timers and produce freshness. Seed levels and Crop Mastery improve a seed in different ways.

Where to get it

Buy Sunburst Melon in the Frenzy Medal Shop for 38 Medals per permanent seed copy. Earn Frenzy Medals through Farm Frenzy guild events; this seed is not a Farm Coin or CXL Shop purchase and is not a Harvest Pass reward.

After purchase, find the seed on Seeds or select an empty plot to plant it. If every copy is already growing, harvest one crop before planting that copy again.

Seed levels and exact upgrade prices

“Cost to reach” is the one-step upgrade from the preceding level. Level 1 is the starting state; cumulative upgrade cost excludes the seed purchase. HP/hour assumes immediate replanting, on-time harvests and one produce per crop on a Level 1 plot, with no Mastery, matching weather, fertilizer, buildings or companions.

Mastery requirements and points

These are harvest-equivalent progress requirements before Greenhouse and companion bonuses. Mastery adds Harvest Points based on the original Level 1 HP, not the upgraded seed-level value. Each level adds 2% of that original base, rounded up to a whole point. The bonus is added before matching-weather multiplication.

Base and maximum-seed examples

The matching-weather examples use Clear Skies at its normal +15% affinity bonus. Every example uses one produce per crop on a Level 1 plot, with no building, companion, fertilizer or late-harvest effects.

Common questions

Why is an older crop worth less than the seed card? A planted crop keeps its planting-time stats. Upgrading the seed later does not change that crop. Missing its Perfect Harvest window can also reduce the recorded HP per produce in inventory.

Do plot upgrades grant extra seed copies? No. Higher-yield plots grant extra produce. The permanent seed copy becomes available again after the crop is harvested; base Crop Mastery progress is awarded per crop, not per extra produce item.

Does Sunburst Melon disappear after November? No. It is a permanent Farm Frenzy seed, and the November CXL Shop sale window does not apply to it.
