The Paulownia (Empress/Princess Tree) is widely considered the world's fastest-growing hardwood, capable of reaching immense heights (10-20 feet) in its first year

I believe for block quality you're better off growing bushes.

Different for us all. What is fast to me might be different to you. Make a bunch of q10 pots, fire all your tree types into the ground. Later. Plant more of what is growing fastest.

It varies by player? Is there not just a fastest tree like how turnips are the fastest crop?

Also sometimes hard to find what is actually best because of a forgotten mechanic that fully grown crops left unharvested will have its growth time shortened to a point that will allow you to catch up. So seeds from a barrel lose this speed up and become regular seeds, so if you're testing you need to use barrel seeds to determine if its actually faster without the catchup mechanic no one uses because we all bot using barrels

Wasn't it stored in the tile rather than the seed?

  • Made it so that crops no longer need to be harvested the second they finish in order achieve their minimum cycle time. Whenever you destroy or harvest a crop the time the crop harvested had spent in the last growth stage is saved per tile or trellis. That time, up to a point, will then be added to your next planting on that tile. Do note that if you do not replant within a certain period, the retained time will be lost. Replanting within 3 RL days of the crop reaching its final growth stage should not lose you any time.
