Cookie Clicker – How Different Soils Affect Cookie Yields

cookie-clicker

Different soil types offer different modifiers for "passive plant effects", ranging from -75% to +25%.

Some plants, such as Queenbeets and Bakeberries, have either a "harvest when mature for +X minutes/hours of CpS" or an "explodes into up to X minutes of CpS at the end of lifecycle" effect, which gives you cookies.

Are the yields from these plants affected by soil type's passive plant effect modifier?

In other words, do effects that involve harvesting a plant or waiting until it explodes count as passive plant effects?

Best Answer

No. All harvest bonuses are active and not passive. It was discussed here aswell along with others:
