Greedy Growers Beginner Guide — First Steps & Mistakes

First steps

• Buy a cheap seed from the river
• Plant it in your plot and water it (clicking speeds growth)
• Harvest before lightning strikes and sell for tickets
• Reinvest tickets into better seeds and upgrades
• Redeem any active codes

Core loop

Every harvest gives tickets you spend on better seeds, plot upgrades, or the auto-waterer. The loop is simple, but the lightning mechanic is what makes timing matter — trees grow more valuable the taller they get, yet lightning becomes more likely the taller they are.

Common mistakes

• Buying the most expensive seed too early (slow payback)
• Forgetting to water manually (manual clicks roughly halve growth time)
• Letting trees sit too long after full growth (lightning or withering)
• Relying only on codes instead of the core loop
