News Tag: Grow A Garden Items

Whether managing a garden in real life or a game, while flowers and trees are beautiful, they often lack a more vibrant, outward life. Introducing small animals to your garden can effectively solve this problem!

For example, in the farm-themed idle game Grow A Garden, while the main gameplay involves planting new crops and selling them to earn Sheckles, which can then be exchanged for more and rarer seeds, raising pets is equally important.

These uniquely designed creatures not only provide companionship in a game lacking social features, but more importantly, each one possesses unique buffs that can improve your planting efficiency.

Below, we will explain the specific mechanics of Grow A Garden pet system in detail and list the pets at different levels that are worth prioritizing.

The Specific Role Of Pets

When you're planting in Grow A Garden, the main steps generally include acquiring seeds, using gear to complete or speed up planting, harvesting plants, and selling them. Pets can benefit you at each of these stages:

• Generate seeds that can be collected for free
• Provide usable gear or directly increase plant maturity speed/yield
• Generate Sheckles for you to collect

All pets in the game are divided into 7 rarity levels. The rarer the pet, the better the bonus, but the harder it is to obtain. Furthermore, not all pets have additional uses; some are simply part of the garden's "atmosphere."

It's worth noting that pet bonuses are stackable. Therefore, we recommend placing pets with better synergistic effects within your limited pet slots to maximize the value of each slot.

How To Obtain Pets?

First, please note that the initial limit on the number of pets you can place in your garden is 60. If you want to place more, you need to earn more currency by completing tasks to unlock the limit of expansion.

Currently, the primary way to acquire pets in the game is by farming and hatching pet eggs, and there are relatively many ways to obtain eggs (otherwise, it would be difficult to collect more pets!).

Eggs are sold at Pet Eggs Shop and Traveling Merchants. You can sell your gained Grow A Garden items to earn currency, then exchange more eggs you need. However, only three random types of eggs are available for exchange each time.

Additionally, during special game events, you can obtain limited-edition pet eggs by completing event quests or trading in the event-specific shop. For example, Ghoul Garden event, currently celebrating Halloween, is in full swing.

There is also a special Anti-Bee Egg that can be obtained through crafting. To do this, you need to collect the relevant materials beforehand, then talk to Bizzy Bear to activate the crafting system and complete the crafting process.

Crafting one Anti-Bee Egg requires 1 Bee Egg and 25 honey. In addition, Anti Bee Eggs can only randomly hatch the following 5 pets:

• Wasp - 55%
• Tarantula Hawk - 30%
• Moth - 13.75%
• Butterfly - 1%
• Disco Bee - 0.25%

How To Improve Your Pets' Abilities?

After hatching, pets will gradually grow on their own; this is essentially their built-in leveling-up mechanism. However, to ensure they grow on time, you must feed them regularly - that is, provide them with XP.

Generally, feeding pets once every 12 hours is sufficient. Available foods include treats like Lollipops or Maple Syrups. Furthermore, using toys to interact with pets, or placing pets with XP boosts in the garden, can accelerate the leveling of other pets.

Pet Mutations

Originally, Mutations mechanism only applied to plants, but after Pet Mutations Update added to the game this July, pets can also gain more or stronger boosts through Mutations.

To mutate your pet, you first need to ensure it's 50 years old. Then, take it to Pet Mutations station near Pet Eggs stall and consume Sheckles to complete the mutation.

Raising a pet to 50 years old requires a significant investment of upgrade materials, and mutations also require a large number of Sheckles. Therefore, you should carefully consider your options before attempting mutations to avoid waste.

Currently, the following mutations can be triggered (probabilities vary):

• Shiny Inverted
• Windy
• Frozen
• Golden
• Tiny
• Mega
• Tranquil
• Corrupted
• IronSkin
• Radiant
• Shocked
• Rainbow
• Ascended

Halloween isn't officially here for about a week, but the time leading up to the holiday is often the most exciting. Grow A Garden's Halloween event, Ghoul Garden, is now in Part 2.

This event will feature some fantastic seeds and pets, but you'll need to participate and complete certain quests to earn them. Let's take a look at some of the interesting seeds and pets featured in this event.

New NPCs And Event Mechanics

Dead Tree

Dead Tree and Witch alternate every two hours. When Dead Tree appears, Witch disappears, and vice versa.

Dead Tree's appearance lasts four hours before a countdown begins. Interacting with Dead Tree grants you a random quest, and completing it unlocks rewards.

Here are Grow A Garden items you can get during Dead Tree event:

• x50 Candy Corn: 11.34%
• x3 Godly Sprinkler: 10.08%

Weeping Branch is a very special Grow A Garden seed. It gradually mutates surrounding plants, causing them to progress through three stages: Wilted, Withered, and Desolate.

Witch And Gravedigger

The witch and the dead tree appear alternately. When the witch appears, Halloween Market and Gravedigger also appear.

After speaking with Gravedigger, you can play Grave Dig mini-game. Each player has 10 shovels, which automatically recharge every 5 minutes. Players can use the shovels to dig the ground to find hidden treasure. Once the shovel is used up, they can no longer dig. Each Gravedigger only exists for one hour.

Here are the items you can obtain at Gravedigger:

• Spooky Egg: 23.26%
• Spooky Crate: 17.44%

These rewards also have various special effects. For example, Crow increases the growth rate of all spooky plants within a 30-yard radius by 1.5 times. Goblin can grab a random player every 5 minutes and bring them to you.

To use Hex Serpent, players must own a Hex Circle decoration and plant five Single Harvest plants within it. Every 12 minutes, Hex Serpent will perform a ritual, consuming these plants and granting a random reward. The rarer the plant, the better the reward.
