If you’ve reached the endgame in Slime Rancher and find yourself wondering what to do with your fully upgraded ranch and free time, consider this high-efficiency farming method that earns roughly 1 million Newbucks every three minutes. This isn’t a guide for early-game players—you’ll need access to teleporters, drones, market links, and a thoroughly expanded ranch. You’ll likely be near the end of the 7Zee Club upgrades before attempting this.

Guide Structure

This strategy is broken down into three core segments:

1. The core loop and how it functions.
2. Drone and teleporter placement techniques.
3. Specific layout of gardens and corrals across every ranch expansion.

The Core Loop: Wake, Water, Warp, Sleep

The method is brilliantly simple. Each in-game day, you’ll:

• Wake up.
• Use teleporters to quickly jump between ranch zones.
• Water every drone to activate their daily tasks.
• Watch your Newbucks increase dramatically.
• Sleep and repeat.

Drones are assigned to handle everything:

• One program feeds slimes via auto-feeders.
• The second collects plorts and sells them via market links.

The beauty is that you only need to walk a short loop through your teleporters to trigger the drones with water, and the system takes care of the rest.

Drone and Teleporter Optimization

To make this loop incredibly efficient, you’ll need to keep these three key principles in mind:

1. Shortest Possible Distance: Keep zones close and easy to warp between. Create a circular teleporter route.
2. Double-Drone Watering Points: Place drones close together and next to water sources when possible. Some gadget sites allow you to water two drones from a single location.
3. Arrival Orientation: Position teleporters so you are immediately facing a drone upon warp-in. This shaves off seconds every day.

With these optimizations, you can activate every drone on your ranch in under 20 seconds per day.

Market Link Placement

Place Market Links close to each corral zone. This reduces the time drones spend moving back and forth between corrals and the market, which in turn makes plort handling more reliable. In zones where drones underperform with dual roles, assign one drone to handle only plorts and the other only food delivery.

Corrals, Gardens, and Slime Selection

A huge part of the setup is determining which slimes to farm and what foods to grow. Some key rules:

• Avoid meat-based favorite foods. Drones have a harder time managing chickens.
• Use maxed-out gardens (excluding scare slimes unless needed).
• Aim for Largos that share a favorite veggie or fruit, so you only need to manage one food type per zone.

Here’s the detailed zone-by-zone setup:

Main Ranch

• 4 Corrals: Tangle Mosaic Largos
• 4 Gardens: Silver Parsnips
• Corrals upgraded with everything except Solar Shields and Music Boxes

The Lab

• 3 Corrals: Dervish Mosaic Largos
• 2 Gardens: Silver Parsnips

The Grotto

• 3 Corrals: Dervish Saber Largos
• 2 Gardens: Prickly Pears

The Overgrowth

• 2 Corrals: Quantum Honey Largos
• 2 Gardens: Mint Mangos

The Docks (Lagoon)

• 2 Corrals: Boom Dervish Largos
• 2 Gardens: Prickly Pears

The Wilds

• 4 Corrals: Mosaic Saber Largos
• 2 Gardens: Silver Parsnips

Mochi’s Manor

• 2 Corrals: Rad Hunter Largos
• 2 Gardens: Oca Ocas

Victor’s Workshop

• 2 Corrals: Crystal Mosaic Largos
• 2 Gardens: Silver Parsnips

Each corral houses approximately 12 Largos, enough to optimize plort generation without overburdening food distribution or drone handling.

Final Thoughts: The Ultimate Passive Income Loop

Once all your drones, teleporters, corrals, and gardens are set, the loop becomes a passive system requiring minimal daily input. Simply wake up, walk the loop, water your drones, and let the money roll in.

This method does require a lot of upfront setup and thoughtful placement, but if you enjoy watching your Newbucks tick upward with minimal effort, it’s the best endgame money strategy available. It’s also highly customizable—there’s room for improvement, tweaks, and substitutions based on personal preference or slime aesthetics.

If efficiency is your endgame, this farming loop is the final stretch of slime ranching mastery. Happy farming!
