Player-harvested Sunflower Seeds or those produced from a Seed Maker actually sell for 20g on the latest update.
Seeds bought from either Pierre's store for 200g or Joja Mart for 125g sell back for 100g.

The latest player-harvested sunflower seeds sell price is 20g.
Sell price of player-harvested Sunflower Seeds.
The store-bought sunflower seeds sell price is 100g.
Sell price of store-bought Sunflower Seeds.


There is an interesting bug where if you stack a 100g seed into a 20g seed, both will be worth 20g.
But, if you stack a 20g seed into a 100g seed, both will be worth 100g.
Therefore, if harvesting Sunflower Seeds, make sure to buy a Sunflower Seed from the store first, to start each stack of seeds, so your harvested seeds will all be worth 100g in that stack.

In conclusion, I would argue that this makes harvesting Sunflower Seeds one of the best crops in the game, if paired with a Seed Maker, since

  • With a Seed Maker, and an average of 1 Sunflower Seed per harvest and 2 Sunflower Seeds per Sunflower, base profit is ((100*3)-125)/8 = 21.875 g/day
  • Lots of seeds means no cost in buying more seeds; you could essentially triple the amount of Sunflowers that you originally planted after each harvest at no cost
  • They last Summer and Fall, meaning you have more windows to plant, and the seeds are useful for longer
  • They are useful with Speed-Gro and Deluxe Speed-Gro, since they are a one-time harvest, and this can increase the g/day even further

I can confirm that this bug exists in PC v1.2.33. margotbean (talk) 00:14, 8 October 2017 (BST)

Bug was reportedly fixed in v1.4, but still exists with Joja seeds. Reported to devs; may be fixed in v1.5. margotbean (talk) 20:06, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
