Preserves jar

Sprite

The preserves jar recipe is Farming level 4: 50 wood, 40 stone, and 8 coal. A jar is also the reward for the Quality Crops Bundle, or the Rare Crops Bundle if bundles are remixed. The Prize Machine in the Mayor's Manor can give four jars as the seventh prize, at a 33% chance.

Jelly, pickles, and roe

Fruit becomes jelly worth twice the fruit's base price plus 50g. Vegetables, mushrooms other than red mushroom, and positive-energy forage become pickles at the same formula. Both take 4,000 minutes, which lands across two or three days: a jar started at 6:00am finishes at 7:20pm two days later. A start between 12:40pm and 7:20pm finishes at 6:00am three days later.

Gold-quality crops sell for 1.5 times the base price. Jelly and pickles are twice the base price plus 50g, so the jar beats selling that crop at gold quality. The margin is thinner when the crop was already gold, because the jar still pays from the base price and throws away the star.

Sturgeon roe becomes caviar at 500g in 6,000 minutes (4 days). Other fish roe becomes aged roe worth twice the roe's base price, in 4,000 minutes. Truffles are not mushrooms here, and they cannot go in the jar.
