In mono green, some essential non-creature ramp cards include Explore, Explosive Vegetation, definitely Skyshroud Claim!

Grubbernaut, I was hoping a bit of both, but if I had to choose one or the other I would go mana wise.

Game_of_Cones, I had not heard of Explore and Explosive Vegetation before. I like Skyshroud Claim because with 2 Emerald Medallions in play it practically pays for itself.

Three Visits and Nature's Lore are your 2 best in this category because the land enters untapped. Utopia Sprawl and Wild Growth are both excellent options. Birds of Paradise, Llanowar Elves, and plenty of other 1 drop mana dorks. Selvala, Heart of the Wilds, Somberwald Sage, Shaman of Forgotten Ways, and plenty of other options that tap for multiple mana.

Vastwood Surge, Collective Voyage, Vernal Bloom are a few I've used a lot.

There's no shortage of ramp options in green, and they come in all types and flavors. Spells, enchantments, 'walkers, creatures, you name it. When you're looking for options that perform a particular function then a site like scryfall or gatherer is going to be your best friend. It will let you search and sort by all sorts of factors from type to mana cost so that you can find exactly the functionality you're looking for.
Beyond just single cards that provide a one time ramp effect (Harrow) or ramp over time (Carpet of Flowers, Exploration) there are also a wide range of card combinations that can provide some serious mana acceleration or even infinite mana. For example: a common go to classic in mono green these days is Ashaya, Soul of the Wild and Quirion Ranger with any random mana dork (Elvish Mystic) plus a haste enabler (Lightning Greaves), or a non summoning sick dork that produces 2 or more mana (Priest of Titania) to produce infinite mana and ramp up to as much mana as you need this turn to play whatever cool big mana thing you wanted to play.
The aforementioned Scryfall and Gatherer sites will even let you sort by format legality so that you can find the right ramp cards and combos for any format you might be playing.

One I really like that you don't hear mentioned too much is Enter the Unknown Not only can it just play a land from your hand, but it can find a land, kind of scry, and also sometimes buff your other creatures like Marwyn, the Nurturer The fact that it usually ramps you early game and gives you card selection late game make it always feel great to draw : )

Cheap budget or cheap mana wise?
