Dew profit calculator

Coming soon: a calculator that will not ship until the Early Access numbers are verified.

The short version

The Dew profit calculator is locked until Early Access prices, yields and growth times can be verified in the live build. The page still gives you the sourced demo and beta reference values — clearly labelled — instead of pretending a beta number is a launch price.

Calculator locked Data gate: waiting for verified Early Access crop prices, yields and growth times.

Estimated profit— Dew

The controls are deliberately disabled. A working calculator will be enabled only after the data gate below is cleared.

Why it is locked

Selection flagged this tool as data-gated: it should ship only with verified crop prices and yields from demo or official sources. We have demo and beta prices, but not a verified Early Access price list, not verified yields per bed, and not a verified energy cost per dish. A calculator that multiplies those gaps would produce a confident wrong answer.

The official Early Access page confirms hydroponics and Super Crops but does not publish nutrient rates, Super Crop odds, station costs or a complete crop list. That is exactly the data a profit calculator needs.

Reference values we can source

These are not calculator inputs. They are the values a future calculator would need to re-verify at launch.

Demo and beta reference values. Early Access may rebalance any of them.

What the calculator will do when it unlocks

  1. Gross: quantity × sale price.
  2. Net: gross − seed or input cost − a verified energy cost.
  3. Per hour: only where the growth time is verified; a 6-hour pineapple and a 10-minute carrot are not comparable without it.
  4. Confidence: each row will show whether the value is official, demo or beta. A beta row will not silently mix with a launch row.

Data gate checklist

  • Early Access sale price for every crop and dish, read from the live build.
  • Seed cost and vendor for every crop.
  • Verified yield per garden bed and per hydroponics station.
  • Verified growth time, including weather and water effects.
  • Verified battery or energy cost per craft and per dish.
  • A patch number and checked date on every row.

Until all six are true, the calculator stays locked. The collection checklist and proficiency planner work now because they do not depend on those numbers.

No fake numbers

We could fill this page with a working calculator using beta values. We are not going to. The reference table above is the honest version: sourced, labelled, and not pretending to be launch data.

Sources and checks

Checked 2026-10-23. Factual claims are drawn from the sources below; demo and beta values are labelled because they may change at Early Access. Recommendations are ours.

No calculator data is live. Reference values are demo/beta and labelled.

We do not publish a recipe, price, stat or mechanic without a source. If something is missing, it is marked unverified rather than guessed.
