Costs are only part of the picture

This calculator helps you model the UPX and STEM costs of your gardening plan — but understanding how gardening actually works in Upland goes much deeper. Generating seeds, plant wellbeing, growth schedules, and Uppies all affect your results. For the complete walkthrough of everything you need to know about gardening in Upland, read our guide:

🌱 Planting Plan

The following calculator is intended to be used for calculating the planting and feeding costs for a single property.

Seed Type
Seed Name
Seed Cost (UPX)
Qty
Miracle Grow (UPX)

Feedings/Week
UPX Cost
STEM/Feeding
ℹ️ Unknown values: If a field is blank or shows a dash (—), that data hasn’t been officially confirmed for this seed type. You can enter your own estimate. Seed names that have “N/A” are seeds that cannot yet be planted, and thus the miracle growth and feeding values are unknown.
🌿 Seed Cost (UPX): Seeds can be purchased directly using UPX. However, some players choose to generate their own seeds by spending $SPARKLET instead. To effectively utilize this calculator, you will have to convert your $SPARKLET to UPX for the sake of these calcuations. This value should be your estimated average seed price.
💰 Miracle Grow (UPX): This default value is the UPX cost assuming you will apply the maximum miracle growth to bypass all growing stages of the plant.
📅 Feeding frequency: The STEM feeding cost shown here is a per-plant, per-feeding cycle. In practice, each plant has its own feeding schedule — determined by its type, growth stage, and current wellbeing. A plant with low wellbeing may need feeding more frequently. Use the feedings/week as a variable to better estimate the total costs.
🏠 Uppie Cost (UPX)
Optional one-time UPX cost to attract Uppie residents to your property. Added to the total one-time planting cost. This future feature will allow you to allocate a level 3 (or higher) Uppie to your property. This Uppie will automatically pet your plants on that property ensuring you maintain a high wellbeing score. Learn more about merging Uppies

Exports your planting plan and cost summary to a spreadsheet-ready file.

The UPX cost represents the total planting cost of all the seeds on your property, and growing them to full size. This includes both the base planting cost per seed and the Miracle Grow cost applied to accelerate growth, summed across every row — plus any Uppie attraction cost added below.

The recurring cost is the STEM cost required to keep your plants healthy on a weekly basis. This number scales directly with how many plants you have, so plan your garden size around what you can comfortably feed each week.


The values below are sourced from in-game data. The values shown are a seed’s maximum Miracle Grow cost to accelerate growth to full size (UPX), and the feeding cost for each feeding period (STEM per plant). Where a field shows “—”, no official value is currently confirmed — enter your own in the calculator above.
