If you’ve been spending time with Grow A Garden, you’ve probably noticed that not all seeds behave the same way. Among the more curious ones is the Easter Egg Seed. It’s a seasonal favorite that rewards players with unique harvests, but it can be a little tricky to plant correctly if you’re new to the game. After experimenting with it myself, here’s what I found works best.
Finding the Seed
The Easter Egg Seed isn’t available all the time. You’ll usually find it as part of limited seasonal events, or you might spot it in the grow a garden shop during special rotations. If you’re trying to plan ahead, it’s worth checking in regularly so you don’t miss your chance to buy Grow A Garden seeds when they appear.
Preparing the Soil
Unlike some of the common seeds, Easter Egg requires well-prepared soil. Make sure the plot is fully watered before planting. If your garden level is still low, you may want to upgrade the soil first, as higher-quality soil increases the chances of the seed sprouting faster.
Planting the Easter Egg Seed
When planting, place the seed in a medium-depth hole. Too shallow, and the seed may wither; too deep, and it takes much longer to grow. The sweet spot is right in the middle. After covering it, water immediately and check on it every in-game day. Consistency matters more than overwatering.
Growth Time and Harvesting
The Easter Egg Seed takes longer than most common plants, but the wait is worth it. Typically, you’ll start seeing signs of growth after two to three in-game days. Full maturity usually comes around day five or six, depending on your upgrades and how well you’ve maintained watering cycles. Harvesting rewards you with colorful Easter Egg crops, which can be traded or used in crafting recipes.
Tips for Success
- Don’t skip daily watering. Even one missed day can delay the growth cycle.
- Fertilizer speeds things up, but it’s not essential. Save it if you’re low on resources.
- If you’re planning a themed garden, consider pairing Easter Egg plants with other seasonal seeds for a festive look.
Planting Easter Egg Seeds correctly comes down to timing and consistency. With the right preparation and care, you’ll be able to add one of the most charming plants to your collection and make the most of seasonal events in Grow A Garden.
