If you’ve been playing Grow a Garden for a while, you probably know that keeping up with updates is key to maximizing your progress. The upcoming update, dropping this Saturday, brings some exciting changes including a new gem egg, crafting recipes, and even a limit-break mechanic for pets. Here’s a detailed breakdown of what you should focus on before the update hits.
Stock Up on Common Eggs
One of the biggest changes in the new update is the addition of the gem egg, which requires common eggs as part of its crafting recipe. Since coal and garden ingots aren’t yet obtainable, your best move is to visit the pet egg shop and buy common eggs in advance. It’s a simple step, but having a stockpile will save you frustration once the update drops, as crafting the gem egg will be impossible without these eggs. Personally, I like to keep a small reserve of at least 50–100 common eggs so I’m not caught off guard.
Choosing the Right Crafting Pets
Crafting efficiency in Grow a Garden depends heavily on which pets you equip. Not all pets are created equal:
- Hamster: It offers a small crafting boost (around 5–10%), but even at max level with mutations, it’s generally underwhelming.
- Pisapolosaurus: This is by far the most effective crafting pet. Obtained from the primal egg, it gives a 10% chance to duplicate crafted items, which can significantly speed up gem egg production. Equipping multiple of these pets can nearly double your output.
- Orangutan: Provides a 7% chance to not consume items during crafting, which stacks with multiple pets for up to 56% total chance. This is particularly useful for harder-to-obtain materials like coal and garden ingots in the upcoming update.
If you’re looking to buy Grow A Garden pets safely and fast, U4GM is one platform where many players turn for verified trades. Using such services can save a lot of time, especially if you want to optimize your crafting setup before an update.
Preparing Your Garden and Seeds
The update also introduces smitting, which may require specific plants. To prepare:
- Visit the seed shop and buy all available seeds.
- Plant everything in your garden before the update. Some seeds, like coconuts, take over 15 hours to grow, so planning ahead is crucial.
- If you’re participating in Safari events, make sure to collect safari eggs and complete related achievements, as some pets (like the elephant) will become unavailable once the event ends.
These steps ensure you have the materials you need for crafting and event challenges as soon as the update goes live.
Joining the Adminus
Another tip from the leaks is to join the Adminus early. The Adminus offers:
- Sea shop purchases, including rare prismatic seeds.
- Gear stockings, which provide level-up lollipops and useful items.
- Admin quests that can reward seeds or rainbow lollipops (which grant 25 pet levels).
Level-up lollipops will be especially valuable because the update may include a limit-break mechanic, allowing pets to exceed level 100. If you want your pets ready for this, collecting lollipops now is a smart move.
Tips for Staying Efficient
- Leave your gear shop window open while exploring. This way, you can continue buying items or seeds during events like blood teleportations.
- Focus on equipping crafting pets strategically rather than just maxing out your highest-level pets. The Pisapolosaurus and Orangutan offer complementary bonuses that can dramatically improve efficiency.
The upcoming update in Grow a Garden offers exciting opportunities for crafting, pet progression, and garden optimization. Key takeaways:
- Stock up on common eggs for gem egg crafting.
- Equip the right crafting pets, with Pisapolosaurus and Orangutan being top choices.
- Plant all seed shop plants ahead of time to prepare for smitting.
- Join the Adminus to get valuable seeds, gear, and level-up lollipops.
- Plan ahead for Safari event pets and achievements to avoid missing out.
By taking these steps, you’ll enter the new update fully prepared, saving time and maximizing rewards.
