Check Greenmarket prices before selling crops. Use spare fish, bugs and StarDash deliveries for money while crops grow.

A simple earning routine

  1. Set aside ingredients needed for your current quests and meals. Sell the surplus.
  2. Once the Galactic Bazaar is available, check the Greenmarket stall for crop prices on other planets.
  3. Compare the destination’s price with your own before traveling there to sell. Another planet is not always better.
  4. Check available StarDash orders and their displayed rewards. While waiting on crops or orders, sell spare catches.

Before cooking to sell

Compare the finished dish’s sale price with the total value of its ingredients. Cooking is not automatically more profitable, and preparation takes time.

What to check in your game

Prices and unlocked activities depend on your test progress. This is a way to compare options, not a guaranteed income rate or a fixed list of the best crops.
