What happens if its Growth Duration would put it into the next month? Or if
its Growth Duration was entirely within one month, but the player didn't get
around to harvesting it before the end of the month?
Perhaps give players a 10 day window to harvest, instead? (Growth Duration
to Growth Duration + 10). Although, that's going to potentially cause
problems with my next suggestion...

Maybe restrict this to out of season crops too (similar to the removal
mechanism). Otherwise, things get messy quickly -- what if I change the
parameters of a crop someone has already planted?
L'esprit de l'escalier...
Crops that are too old to be matured are spoiled. Spoiled crops can be
destroyed by announcement. Crop modifications can only be done if no
instances of that crop exist. (Maybe also require them to be out of season
so one can't immediately plant them, although at the end of the month
there's still a timing manipulation possible)
Also, since e has been on vacation, I deputise as Janet to note the Fancy Caps.
