How do I start my first garden?
Join a game server, talk to Sam (the tutorial NPC), claim a free starter plot, buy seeds from the Seed Shop (Carrots recommended for beginners), and plant them in your plot. Follow the tutorial for a detailed walkthrough.
How do I get my first pet?
Earn 2,500 coins by growing and selling crops, visit the Pet Shop near the map center, purchase a Basic Egg, go to your inventory, select the egg, and click 'Hatch'. Your new pet will provide automatic benefits when equipped.

Mutations are special crop versions with unique appearances and increased values. Golden mutations (5% chance when leaving crops unharvested), Rainbow mutations (2% chance during rain with Tier 3+ watering can), and other variants occur under specific conditions.
What's the fastest way to earn coins?
Focus on multi-harvest crops like Strawberries or Blueberries, unlock Tomatoes for excellent value-to-time ratio, aim for mutations during weather events, complete NPC quests, use coin boost pets like Golden Lab (+15%), and redeem active codes.
Which tools should I upgrade first?
Upgrade in this order: Watering Can to Tier 2 (multi-plant watering), Harvester to Tier 2 (multi-harvest), Watering Can to Tier 3 (mutation chances), Fertilizer (30% faster growth), then Harvester to Tier 3 for maximum efficiency.
