Tips for Admin Abuse:
-
Play on a private or low-population server to avoid interference from other players’ overgrown plants
-
Participate early to maximize chances for rare pet drops and Prismatic seed rewards
Possible Admin Pack items include:
-
Grape, Ember Lily, Sugar Apple, Beanstalk, Burning Bud, Elder Strawberry, Crimson Thorn
-
Advanced, Godly, Master, Grandmaster Sprinklers
-
Levelup Lollipop, Common/Uncommon/Rare/Mythical/Bug Eggs
Admin Quests have been absent for four consecutive weeks, likely canceled.
Prismatic seed tasks (first five hours after Admin Abuse) include:
-
Crimson Thorn, Sugar Apple, Giant Pinecone, Elder Strawberry, Ember Lily, Burning Bud, Beanstalk, Rainbow Lollipop, Romanesco
To maximize your Prismatic seed chances, participation in Admin Abuse events is recommended, as mutations like Lightcycle and Voidtouched are more likely to appear.
Summary
Grow A Garden continues to deliver weekly excitement with new pets, seeds, events, and Admin Chaos. Whether you’re chasing rare seeds, completing seasonal milestones, or just enjoying the daily streaks, the upcoming New Year update promises a fun and rewarding experience for all players.
