The farming sim Grow a Garden has become a standout on Roblox, especially since the Beanstalk Update arrived. This event focuses on a towering plant at the centre of every player’s field and relies on one key ingredient: woody plants.

These tree-based crops act as fuel for growing the Beanstalk, unlocking event prizes, and helping players climb the leaderboards. For anyone looking to learn how woody plants work and how to collect them, this guide breaks down the essentials.

Woody Plants Explained

In Grow a Garden, each crop falls into a specific category, and woody plants are the main stars during the Beanstalk event. This event started on 13 August 2025 and introduced plant types that usually grow on trees and shrubs, such as fruit or tough-stemmed produce.

When Jack, the event NPC, asks for “woody” plants, players need to hand these over to feed the Beanstalk. Each woody plant, depending on rarity, is worth 2 to 7 points towards the next event reward. The more points, the faster the Beanstalk grows, with benefits like Sprout Crates, the Golden Goose, or entry to the Goliath’s Goods shop.

The Beanstalk in each field grows based on everyone’s combined efforts on the server. When Jack’s speech bubble says “Woody,” only woody plants will progress the event. Stocking up plenty of these crops is important. Jack’s requests update every hour, and the right plant at the right time can help secure a top leaderboard spot or special items.

Earning Woody Plants: Tips for Collecting and Growing

A steady stream of woody plants calls for planning, luck, and wise spending. Top ways to build a solid collection include:

Seed Shops and Event Merchants: The main Seed Shop refreshes hourly and sells staples like Apple, Coconut, Mango, Cacao, and the rare Giant Pinecone (for 500,000 to 2,000,000 Sheckles). Special event shops, such as the Summer Merchant (Avocado, Kiwi, Feijoa), Honey Shop (Nectarine, Hive Fruit), and Twilight Shop (Moon Mango), boost the odds of finding top crops. Shopping late at night, especially during less busy times, usually improves the selection.
Seed Packs and Chests: Pears come from Summer Seed Packs; Sprout Seed Packs often drop Duskpuff, Mangosteen, and Gleamroot. Rhubarb appears in Culinarian Chests, while Zen or Night Seed Packs offer Maple Apple and Moon Blossom. To boost the odds of getting rare crops (only a 1 to 5 percent chance for the top ones), open several packs at once.
Trading and Working with Others: Use the official trading hub to swap duplicate plants like Mango or Peach. Attending busy servers during Beanstalk events means more shared plants and quicker event progress since the Beanstalk resets each hour.
Daily Challenges and Seasonal Events: Finishing Garden Guide challenges often awards Seed Packs or event crates. The Summer Harvest event gives players a chance to get a Kiwi or a Feijoa. After finishing the Beanstalk seven times, players unlock the chance to buy the Spriggan with 150 million Sheckles.

Woody Plant Tips for Climbing the Beanstalk

Target the Rarest: Focus on Mythical, Divine, and especially Prismatic plants for results. A single Giant Pinecone counts for seven basic crops.
Save Sheckles: Set aside enough currency (at least 50,000 to 200,000) for Sprout Seed Packs at the Giant’s Shop, unlocked after climbing the Beanstalk.
Use Fertilizer Wisely: Silver Fertilizer increases woody plant value for three hours, helping rack up points. Community posts often suggest checking the Seed Shop at midnight UTC for rare crates.
Keep Extras on Hand: With Jack’s requests changing each hour, a wide variety of woody plants ensures players never stall on event progress.

Why Woody Plants Matter

Woody plants provide the fastest way to score points and earn special event rewards. High-level crops like the Giant Pinecone can save hours of work, with Mythical and Divine plants keeping players competitive on the leaderboards.

The Beanstalk is a joint task, so teamwork is important—active servers help everyone reach prizes faster. Recent posts from users like @8bitGrrl and @dailyindia have highlighted just how much the community values top crops like Traveller’s Fruit and Moon Blossom. Leaks have hinted that even more woody plants, such as Petrified Oak, might be included in future updates, making them even more important.
