Garden (Slime Rancher)

A **Garden** is a facility available at any plot on The Ranch, Ogden's Retreat, Mochi's Manor and Viktor's Workshop. Gardens are used to grow Fruit and Veggies, except the Kookadoba and Gilded Ginger.

## Slimepedia Entry

*The gardens used by ranchers use advanced technology to rapidly grow clones of fruits and veggies in a natural, though greatly sped up, way. By placing a sample into the replicator, the garden's soil is instantly populated by a fruit tree or veggie patch and will keep producing harvests until removed.*

## Default

A default Garden will produce crops up to their maximum harvest once every 18-24[*citation needed*]

in-game hours.
Giving the garden a splash of Water or Ancient Water will double the growth rate of the crop for 23 in-game hours. This effect does **not** stack with the Sprinkler.

## Trivia

* The Slimepedia icon of the Garden and Garden Deluxe depicts Cuberries growing on Mint Mango trees, with the coloring and trunk pattern similar to the Pogofruit tree.
* You can increase hourly food yield by harvesting crops as soon as they reach maturity, removing the crops for **10**, and then replanting it. Doing so skips a portion of the regrowth phase.
* The Deluxe Upgrade is not present in the Garden's Slimepedia Entry, despite Miracle Mix being present in it.
* You cannot grow kookadoba fruit, spicy tofu or gilded ginger in a garden.
* If you either jump or walk into the scareslime, it will wobble, similar to a bobblehead. It also makes a springing noise, audibly played whenever you run into it.
