Pets Limitation in Grow a Garden
In Grow a Garden, pets provide valuable abilities that boost your garden’s productivity, but there are important limitations to keep in mind for effective management.
Pet Slot Limitations
Players initially have 3 pet equipment slots, allowing only three active pets at a time. Up to 5 additional slots can be unlocked by trading in pets that have reached specific age milestones, increasing the maximum active pets to 8. This system encourages aging and leveling pets strategically to expand your garden’s potential.
Unlocking these extra slots requires trading in pets that meet specific age requirements. The age thresholds for unlocking each new slot are:
- +1 slot: pet aged 20+
- +2 slots: pet aged 30+
- +3 slots: pet aged 45+
- +4 slots: pet aged 60+
- +5 slots: pet aged 75+
Inventory and Hatch Limits
There is a hard cap of 60 pets in your inventory. While unhatched eggs do not count toward this limit, you must have an available pet slot to hatch a new pet. Pets in your inventory are inactive and do not provide any benefits until equipped.
Pet Aging and Leveling
Pets age and level up by working in the garden and being regularly fed to keep their hunger bar full. Aging improves their abilities, making older pets more valuable. If a pet’s hunger reaches zero, it stops aging, so consistent feeding is essential.
Ability Stacking and Strategy
Pets’ abilities stack when multiple pets with similar perks are equipped, amplifying their effects such as faster crop growth, increased mutation chances, and resource gains. Choosing and managing pets wisely within the slot and inventory limits is key to maximizing garden efficiency.
