For those dedicated farmers in *Stardew Valley*, the Greenhouse is a pivotal asset in revitalizing your family farm to its past glory. Here's a detailed look at how many plants the Greenhouse can accommodate in the game.
What Is the Greenhouse in Stardew Valley?
The Greenhouse, found on your farm, becomes available once you've successfully completed the Community Centre bundles or opted for the Joja Community Development Form. This structure is a game-changer because it bypasses the seasonal crop restrictions that apply outdoors. Once you've completed the six bundles in the pantry section of the Community Centre, the Greenhouse magically restores itself overnight, ready for you to harness its full potential.

Inside the Greenhouse, you're free to grow any crop from any season at any time, including fruit trees. This feature makes it a goldmine for year-round lucrative crop production, especially those that offer multiple yields. As long as you keep these plants in the Greenhouse, they'll be a continuous source of income.
The layout includes space around the perimeter for trees, storage chests, and equipment like Seed Makers. The main planting area consists of 10 rows and 12 columns of tillable land. However, the number of plants you can grow varies based on whether you use Sprinklers.

How Many Plants Can the Greenhouse Hold in Stardew Valley?
Without Sprinklers, the Greenhouse can house up to 120 crops on its inner tiles, with an additional 18 fruit trees around the edges. Fruit trees don't require watering and will flourish as long as they are spaced two tiles apart.
If you decide to use Sprinklers, the capacity changes. Sprinklers are a farmer's best friend for saving time, freeing you up to tackle other tasks around Pelican Town.
The number of Sprinklers needed to cover the entire inner section depends on their type and placement. Note that Sprinklers can also be positioned on the wooden border:
- Sixteen Quality Sprinklers are needed to cover all crops, occupying twelve inner tiles.
- Six Iridium Sprinklers are needed to cover all crops, occupying four inner tiles.
- Four Iridium Sprinklers with Pressure Nozzles can cover all the crops, taking up two inner tiles.
- Five Iridium Sprinklers with Pressure Nozzles can cover all the crops, using just one inner tile.
With smart planning and efficient use of space, the Greenhouse can significantly enhance your farm's productivity, allowing you to grow up to 120 crops year-round.
And that's how many plants the Greenhouse can hold in *Stardew Valley*.
