Spring Season Walkthrough
Complete guide to Spring in Seikyu — best crops to plant, fish available, events, and priorities for a strong start.
Spring in Seikyu
Spring is your first season and arguably the most important. What you accomplish now sets the foundation for the entire year. Each Spring lasts 28 days.
Spring Crops
| Crop | Seed Price | Sell Price | Growth Days | Profit/Day | Regrows? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Turnip | 20g | 60g | 4 | 10g | No |
| Potato | 16g | 80g | 6 | 10.7g | No |
| Wheat | 50g | 120g | 5 | 14g | No |
| Cabbage | 45g | 200g | 9 | 17.2g | No |
| Soybean | 150g | 250g | 7 | 14.3g | No |
| Strawberry | 200g | 300g | 8 | 12.5g+ | Yes |
# Planting Strategy
Days 1-14: Plant Turnips and Potatoes for quick returns. Add Cabbage once you have more capital.
Days 15-21: If you unlocked Strawberries, plant them now — they'll produce before the season ends and keep producing. Otherwise, continue with Cabbage and Wheat.
Days 22-28: Only plant Turnips (4 days) or Wheat (5 days). Anything longer will wither when Summer arrives.
Spring Fish
| Fish | Location | Rarity | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Black Bass | Rivers | Common | 25g |
| Cuttlefish | Ocean | Precious | 130g |
| Crystal Shrimp | Shallow Sea | Rare | 30g |
| Carp | Various | Common | 10g |
| Crucian Carp | Various | Common | 12g |
| Lobster | Ocean | Rare | 80g |
Target: Cuttlefish are the most valuable Spring fish at 130g. Fish at the ocean on good weather days.

Tips for a Strong Spring
- Don't overspend on seeds — Keep a reserve of 500g for tool upgrades
- Visit Hephaestus regularly — Tool upgrades dramatically improve farming speed
- Fish on rainy days — Some rare fish appear only during specific weather
- Talk to NPCs daily — Even without gifts, daily conversation builds friendship slowly
- Save Strawberries for Year 2 — The 200g seed price is steep in Year 1, but they're worth it once established
Spring is about building momentum. A strong first season means a prosperous year ahead.
