Great Pumpkin Seed Guide - Grow a Garden
By Paquito Jr Conde | October 19, 2025
Overview
The Great Pumpkin is a special, limited-event plant with a Halloween theme that grants a recurring mutation effect to other plants. It is a multi-harvest vegetable-type crop that periodically applies a high-value mutation to a random plant in your garden. Because it is both visually distinct and mechanically useful, many players seek it for income optimization and collection. The seed is rare in the Seed Shop and can also be purchased with Robux when available. Its main value is the passive mutation effect rather than raw per-harvest profit alone.

- Robux Purchase: Available through direct Robux purchase during event windows or special listings.
