Low cost cards to help with land drops in mono green
Commander (EDH) forum

Hi! I'm looking for low mana value permanents that will help my mono green deck hit land drops more consistently. I'm running 38 lands, but the deck's card draw is mostly high mana value, so the early game is a bit precarious.
For early card draw, I currently have Endless Atlas and am considering Tome of Legends or maybe a looter like Smuggler's Copter. A Sylvan Library would be nice, but it's outside my price range.
I recently came across Greenseeker and this sort of effect is exactly what I'm looking for. Main issue is that it's only one card, and Hermit Druid is the only other low cost permanent I've found with a similar effect.
If only Abundance weren't 4 mana...
Any suggestions?

I use Rowen and Wall of Roots in my “Kong, King of Skull Island” deck… not exactly ramp PROPER, but acceleration in the form of permanents still. Maybe those would help?

Just to get it clear: You're mostly not drawing enough lands and want input on how to solve that? Or do you draw enough lands but want more drops? That's quite the difference. Also, to give better suggestions: Is there a reason you want thise cards to be permanents?
Thanks for clearing it up.

Not drawing enough lands and hoping to solve that. I’m looking for permanents specifically because I’m wanting a repeatable effect. Ideally mana value 1 or 2 since my commander (Omnath, Locus of Mana) is mana value 3.
Thanks for checking!

Ok, that's actually quite tough, but I'll go with it. What comes to mind is Avenging Druid. It's a hermit druid version, if even a somewhat bad one. Abundant Harvest isn't a permanent, but a one-shot Abundance for is quite useful.
Here's the scryfall-search I used
These are propably the cards from my search that fit your request best:

I like Explorer's Scope.
Oracle of Mul Daya can help, though be aware you're telegraphing your future plays with her.

^ Yavi is one of my favs. In addition to what others have said I'd also rec Thawing Glaciers which is probably my fav land of all time if I had to pick one. It's especially nice if you run Rings of Brighthearth for copying fetches and/or with any land untappers. Blossoming Tortoise and Shigeki, Jukai Visionary are solid options though more ramp than landfixing. Not a perm but Life from the Loam is great. I also like Realms Uncharted for finding tech lands, you can get any two lands along with Echoing Deeps and Petrified Field. Gl with your build!

With monogreen I'm thinking permanents that do additional land plays including, but not limited to, Arboreal Grazer, Azusa, Lost but Seeking, Oracle of Mul Daya and Walking Atlas. Another for your deck would be Courser of Kruphix. I hope this helps. Happy Hunting!
