Powdermelon is one of the more trickier crops to grow in Stardew Valley. It’s part of all the new content that has been added to the game as part of the 1.6 update. Unlike many other crops, it’s purely seasonal, which makes it slightly harder for you to grow and harvest it in the first place.

Like any crop, Powdermelon also grows from seeds that must first be collected, planted, grown, and then harvested. As stated, the plant is seasonal, and the same applies to the seeds as well. You can find the seeds only during the winter season in game. You’ll need to be on the lookout for grass tufts and artifact spots.
It’s easier to find both on frozen lands, but the two appear very similar. Both artifacts and grass tufts are embedded within the lands and must be unearthed. In my experience, grass tufts have a higher rate of providing seeds including Powdermelon.

Moreover, you won’t have to look out for grass tufts and artifact spots to find more seeds. You can also sell Powdermelon in Stardew Valley for 60 coins, which is a pretty decent return.
