Ideas for creating a Grow a Garden layout

Creating a layout for your farm can be a daunting task, particularly for a late-game player. Since you only have a 4x2 grid of farmland to work with, you will have to reposition plants frequently to make space. Furthermore, remembering where each plant is can be difficult after planting dozens of Seeds and so, organizing them is equally important.

You can move plants using the Trowel tool in the Gear Shop. It costs 100,000 Sheckles and can be used twice before needing to be replaced. For a mid-late game player, this cheap tool is nearly always in the shop.

A sound way to improve the appearance of your farm while making it easier to navigate is to use Cosmetics. Items found in the Cosmetics Shop can help make your farm more accessible while making it more charming. You can use them to section off parts of the farm, use them as stepping platforms, or simply add them as decoratives.

With that in mind, let’s take a look at a few sample layout schemes for your garden.

Size-based layouts

The easiest option to organize your farm is to sort them by size. You can keep the largest plants like Coconut and Cactus in the back, while smaller ones like Strawberry can remain in the front. This will require plenty of repositioning, particularly if you don’t know how large a plant will be after fully maturing.

Alternatively, you can do the opposite and keep the larger ones close to the entrance of the farm. There is no real practical difference between the two size-based layouts beyond aesthetics; you can go for either based on which you like more.

Value-based layouts

Certain plants tend to produce more valuable Fruits than others. You can keep plants with high-value Fruits close to the entrance of the farm, which has the benefit of allowing you to harvest them quickly.

If you need to sell a few Fruits for, say, a shop that’s minutes away from expiring, this layout will be your best friend. Shops like the Blood Moon shop and Seed Shop will occasionally have you scrambling for Cash to buy their respective contents, after all.

With this layout, you will also be able to harvest low-value crops at your leisure after the valuable ones have been picked clean.

Release date-based layouts

If you want your farm to be a reflection of Grow a Garden’s release history, you can sort it based on the different plants’ release dates. This can lead to a messy farm, but it can create a wonderful sense of progression for you and for the title itself. The idea isn’t to stick with aesthetic or practical sensibility; rather, it’s about sticking to the theme of the farm.

Based on how you choose to keep your plants, you will need to reposition them very frequently. After all, Grow a Garden receives a new update every week, adding new species for you to collect and nurture.

Production-based layouts

You can also sort the plants on your farm based on the types of Fruits they produce. This involves keeping similar harvest types, such as prickly, flowers, single-harvests, and berries together, which is both practical and aesthetically sound. You can allocate boxes on the grid to one or more of these types based on your preferred utility or visual representation.

At the end of the day, the farm only needs to be accessible and visually pleasing to you. Everything other than your opinion is secondary in this case.
