Beginner's Guide: Your First Hour

Welcome to Grow a Garden! This guide will take you from a barren plot to a thriving farm.

Step 1: Claim Your Plot

When you first spawn, head to the plot selection area. Choose any available plot - they're all the same.

Step 2: Get Your Starter Seeds

Visit Sam's Shop and grab the free starter pack:

  • 5 Carrot Seeds
  • 5 Potato Seeds
  • Basic Watering Can
  • Basic Trowel
  • Step 3: Plant Your First Crops

  • Open your inventory
  • Select a seed
  • Click on an empty plot tile
  • Water immediately with your watering can
  • Step 4: Wait and Water

    Crops need water to grow! Check back every few minutes to water. Growth times:

  • Carrots: 2 minutes
  • Potatoes: 3 minutes
  • Step 5: Harvest and Sell

    When crops are fully grown (sparkles appear):

  • Equip your trowel
  • Click the crop to harvest
  • Visit Sam's Shop to sell
  • What's Next?

    Once you have 500+ Sheckles:

  • Buy better seeds (Corn, Tomatoes)
  • Upgrade your watering can
  • Start watching for mutations!
  • Happy farming! 🌱
