Most Profitable Crop by Time
There are several threads on the most profitable crop over an unlimited amount of time and I will not rehash the benefits of Black Currant.
I created this spreadsheet and thread to discuss which crop to plant if you have a specific amount of time (3 hrs, 10 hrs, 12 hrs, 2 days, etc.) that you know you will not be playing Farm Story and you want to make the most coin in your absence.
Therefore I submit for your review:

The thing is not only profit
I think that, we are actually playing this game, not farming, which means that, we couldn't just plant, and leave the farm there for several days just becuz the profit will come when corps are collected. More than that, if we can get on the game several times a day, and do it for 3 days, it is for sure that the profit which you do several times a day, is more than the 3-days-crop. So I think people who actually likes the game, and love to play with it, just don't plant those 2 3 4 days corps, or you'll get stuck on it, everytime you get on the game, you can do nothing, but just wait till the time to come. That is no fun at all. Base on that, the most profit corp, have to be calculated base on how many times gamer can get on the game everyday.

... the rest of the story!
There's more to consider than profitability. How about this? Wait too long to collect your crop and it withers away, you get nothing. If you want, say, 12 hours leeway to collect a crop after it matures, you need a crop that matures in no less than 12 hours. So, tomatoes (yield 4 to 1 return) is a good choice. Takes 16 hours to mature, so you have roughly 16 hours to collect after maturity.
Thanks for all the spreadsheets!
I just want to say thank you to everyone who made a spreadsheet! I sat down to do this myself then thought "Hey, I bet someone did this already"
Thanks!
Wrong "Collection" numbers for Watermelon & Asparagus
I believe the correct "Collection" numbers are Watermelon 340 and Asparagus 300. These numbers bump Watermelon up as the best crop for 12 and 16 hours, though for 5 fewer coins for Asparagus at 16 hours, you get 3 vs 2 XPs - a reasonable tradeoff.
I suggest adding a column to indicate at what Level each crop becomes available. Such an indication would facilitate determining which crops could actually be planted, given a farmer's particular level. These figures may be hard to determine, though, as they disappear from the Store listings once the crop is available at a farmer's level.
What about coffee and dalhia

I would add these 3 columns right after profit/hour, it will allow people to type in thier farm specific info to see the best options for them!!! so they know what to plant for the time they have allotted to harvest.
