In Grow a Garden 2, making money fast is essentially your goal while you care for your plants and collect the harvests they produce. Sheckles are the in-game currency you’re after. The higher your total, the better the tools, seeds, pets, and gear you’ll be able to purchase to keep expanding your garden. With that said, here are the best ways to earn money in Grow a Garden.
How to earn money quickly in Grow a Garden 2
In Grow a Garden 2, you can earn money more quickly by trading in high-value crops, team up with friends, negotiating, causing plant mutations, making use of Sprinklers and Watering Cans, and choosing the right pets that boost plants.
Sell high-value crops
Making profit from high-value crops is, without question, the quickest path to stacking up Sheckles. That said, reaching many of the S-tier crops from our seed tier list will take a little while. The main reason is their steep price—when you first start gardening, you won’t have any Sheckles to spend.
That doesn’t mean you’re limited to S-tier plants if you want to earn money; they’re simply the most efficient option. Bamboo and Mushrooms stand out as especially profitable crops. Even though they only have single harvests, they’ve proven to deliver the strongest returns quickly, both at the beginning and again once your garden is up and running.
Play with friends
This is a simple, yet very effective, advantage as you work on increasing how many Sheckles you earn. Each friend you have on your server boosts the worth of your crops by 10%. Just make sure these are Roblox friends so the bonus actually applies—and yes, the boosts add up. Since it’s 10% for each friend, being in a server with five others gives you a total boost of 50%. Just be careful that your friends don’t take your crops while you’re away…
Negotiate for a better price
Trying to negotiate a better offer from Steven at the sales shop is always a smart move, particularly when you already have high-tier crops stocked up, such as Dragon’s Breath. You won’t always land the best deal from this trader, but it’s still worth pushing for—there’s a chance you’ll get more than you expected!
Wait for and sell mutations
Your crops can mutate due to weather conditions or because of certain pets you own. Mutated crops are always worth more than their original forms, though different mutations come with different multipliers. For example, a Rainbow mutation adds a x30 multiplier to the affected crops, while a Bloodlit mutation is even more valuable, delivering a x60 multiplier.
In short, if you’re holding onto extremely valuable crops (like a Moon Bloom), you’ll generally do better leaving them on their parent plant until a mutation happens. Just keep an eye out for other players trying to grab your goods!
Utilize Sprinklers and Watering Cans
Sprinklers and Watering Cans are tools you can pick up from the Gear Shop when they’re available. Sprinklers are limited-time items that automatically water the crops in the specified section of your garden plot once you place them. Keeping crops watered can boost their weight and size, which may translate into higher selling values later.
Watering Cans can also be used to revive crops that have dried out, but their biggest benefit is that they speed up the growth of the plants you water. As of now, the Super Watering Can is the most powerful in-game option, providing a 300x speed growth multiplier to a plant. This is especially helpful when you’re growing a high-value plant that takes a while to mature.
Possess plant-boosting pets
After all, time is money, right? The faster your plants reach maturity, the sooner you can sell their produce for Sheckles—particularly if those crops end up mutating. That’s where the right pets really pay off. Some pets increase crop growth speed, while others improve your odds of triggering certain mutations.
Two pets worth highlighting are the Deer and the Unicorn. The Deer increases plant growth speed by 10%, and the Unicorn doubles the chance that your plants will gain the Rainbow mutation. You’ll run into the Deer more often, and when you combine it with other speed-boosting methods like a Sprinkler, your garden should start thriving quickly.
