The Coconut is a mythical and highly prized multi-harvest crop in Grow a Garden. Known for its long growth cycle, high value, and usefulness in many game events, the Coconut holds a unique place among end-game crops. After being removed from the Seed Shop during the Summer Harvest Event, it eventually returned in the Prehistoric Event—much to the excitement of the community.
Despite its slow growth time, the Coconut remains one of the most profitable and strategically important plants in the game thanks to its consistent yields, exceptional weight, and compatibility with several event mechanics.
In Grow a Garden, the Coconut stands out as one of the most valuable mythical crops, and many players rely on grow a garden pets to help obtain its rare seeds. Pets such as Dogs, Golden Labs, and Shiba Inus can occasionally dig up Coconut seeds, while Red Foxes may steal crops and return them with valuable rewards. Other pets like Moon Cats boost the chances of growing huge coconuts, making them essential companions for players who want to maximize harvest size, event efficiency, and overall coconut production.
Appearance
The Coconut crop goes through distinct visual stages:
Seed
- Pure white in color
- Slightly rounded, smooth texture
- Small compared to other mythical seeds
Sprout & Trunk
- Begins as a small green stem
- Evolves into a thick, sturdy trunk
- The trunk tapers as it grows upward, giving it a realistic palm-tree structure
Leaves and Growth Crown
- Fully grown trees develop 5–7 soft, light-green leaves
- Each leaf holds up to 4 coconuts, allowing total yields of 20, 24, or 28 fruits
Fruit
- Each coconut is a dark-brown sphere
- Contains three iconic dark holes on the surface
- Has a subtle stud-like texture that gives it a heavier, rugged look
- When shocked, coconuts lose their black spots and do not glow
Interestingly, large coconuts may reveal a tiny cube at the top—an odd detail that becomes easier to notice when the fruit grows to “Huge” size.
How to Obtain Coconut Seeds
Coconut seeds are considered one of the rarer seeds in the game. Their limited sources and high cost make them a milestone crop for newer players. Below are all known ways to acquire them:
1. Seed Shop (2% Chance)
- Appears only 1 out of every 50 rotations
- Cost: Sheckle 6,000 or Robux 597
Because of their rarity, many players refresh the shop frequently during events or Lucky Restock periods.
2. Lucky Harvest
Any harvested crop may very rarely trigger a lucky reward, which can contain a Coconut seed. This method is unreliable but rewarding when it occurs naturally through normal gameplay.
3. Red Fox Theft
Red Foxes sometimes steal crops and later drop seeds as compensation. Although unpredictable, this method can provide occasional Coconut seeds.
4. Snail Drops
Harvesting a Snail guarantees a seed, and there is a chance—though very small—that the seed will be a Coconut seed.
5. Pet Digging (Dog, Golden Lab, Shiba Inu)
These pets may dig up buried items, including rare seeds.
The more pets you own, the more frequently digging events occur, increasing your odds.
6. Seed Rain
During Seed Rain, any seed in the game (including rare ones) can fall. Coconut seeds are among the rarest to drop but still obtainable.
7. Red Panda Restocks
Red Pandas are capable of replenishing the Seed Shop with high-tier seeds, occasionally including Coconut seeds. This is one of the more reliable mid-game methods.
8. Lucky Restock
A random restock mechanic that can introduce rare seeds—including the Coconut—into the shop cycle.
Gameplay Uses
While Coconuts are profitable, their value extends far beyond simple selling:
Event Grinding
Coconuts are ideal for events due to:
- High base weight
- Consistent fruit output
- Compatibility with pollination-based challenges
Pollination (Bizzy Bee Event)
Because coconuts weigh around 10 kg or more, they interact favorably with pollination objectives, making them easier to target and transport by bees.
Economy & Passive Farming
The Coconut is a perfect crop for AFK or low-maintenance players:
- Long growth time means fewer interruptions
- Multi-harvest functionality increases long-term efficiency
- High market stability due to consistent value and demand
Huge Variant Hunting
Coconuts have a 1.43% huge chance, which can be further influenced by:
- Moon Cats
- Sprinklers
- Growth-boosting pets
Huge coconuts are visually impressive and significantly more valuable.
Trivia
- Growth time varies greatly: 6 to 15 hours, placing Coconut as the 4th slowest crop in the game.
- Sometimes, 2 or more coconuts spawn in the same space due to a glitch.
- A rejoin visual bug temporarily unifies their size, but actual harvest size remains unaffected.
- In early versions of Grow a Garden, the Coconut was the most expensive plant at Sheckle 4,750.
- Coconuts pair extremely well with tomatoes for grinding specific events.
