Carrot
A simple, fast-growing root vegetable perfect for beginners to earn quick Sheckles in Grow a Garden.
Overview
Carrots are one of the first crops players encounter in Grow a Garden, available at Sam’s or Tom’s Seed Shop for just 10 Sheckles. Their Common rarity and short 30-minute growth time make them ideal for new players to farm Sheckles quickly. While their base value is low, mutations like Wet or Pollinated can boost profits, especially during weather events.
Best Usage Strategy
Plant Carrots in bulk during rainy weather for Wet mutations (2x multiplier) to double their value. Use Basic Sprinklers to increase mutation chances. They’re perfect for completing the "Plant 100 Carrot Seeds" daily quest, which rewards additional Sheckles. Harvest with the Favorite Tool to avoid accidental collection. Pair with pets like Black Bunny, which passively eats Carrots for extra income. Ideal for early-game grinding to afford rarer seeds.
