Farming XP, help me troubleshoot my run

I've been doing a Zamiel-inspired min/max run that requires getting to Level 6 farming on Spring 27. I just harvested my crops for the day, and it didn't push me from Level 5 to Level 6. I can't figure out what went wrong.

Here's a list of the crops that I have harvested:
20 parsnips (8XP/ea = 160XP)
10 potatoes (14XP/ea = 140XP)
14 cauliflower (23XP/ea = 322XP)
5 green beans (9XP/ea = 45XP)
73 unmilled rice (7XP/ea = 511XP)
125 kale (17XP/ea = 2125XP)
4 coffee beans (4XP/ea = 16XP)
1 tulip (7XP/ea = 7XP)
1 blue jazz (10XP/ea = 10XP)

This should be 3336XP, and the cumulative XP for reaching Level 6 is supposed to be 3300? Does the game only count one item for XP purposes if you get more than one from a single plant on the same day, e.g. 2 potatoes from one plant only gives 14XP?

I had a great run going, and this is killing me. 😭

Looks that way yeah.

Crops that yield multiple produce per harvest, such as blueberry, cranberry, or potato, only reward experience for the first product and do not offer any extra experience for the multiples.
Ugh. That sucks, but thanks for confirming. Calculating that way, I'm probably only at 3182XP.

I'm assuming that on console there are no actions that can gain additional farming XP on the same day?

I'm not doing this run to share with anyone, so at this point I'd take a minor one-time cheat just to avoid replaying the whole thing.

As far as I can tell, the math checks out just fine unless I'm missing something. As for your question about getting multiple produce from the same crop (2 potatoes from 1 plant), you only get experience for the first one harvested. Put another way, you get the same amount of experience per crop whether that crop yields 1 of itself or more than 1 of itself.

I was calculating based on the number of each produce harvested instead of the number of crops in the ground, and that is where I went wrong.
