Unlike white turnips, they are sold as seeds and their value does not fluctuate. Joan will always sell seeds for 1,000 Bells, which must then be planted and watered every day for a week. The more days a Red Turnip has grown, the greater its value. A full-size Red Turnip sells for a maximum of 16,000 Bells, making a profit of 15,000.
