Event Island and Duration
The Seed Stages Event Island will be open from September 27, 2025, to October 11, 2025, giving players two full weeks to explore the new mechanics, collect event pets, and earn exclusive rewards.

What Are Seed Stages?
Seed Stages focus on evolutionary farming. Unlike regular crops, Evo Plants go through multiple growth stages. Each stage produces unique harvests that can vary in value, offering strategic opportunities for trading and farming.
Evo Plants come with three additional stats you’ll need to monitor closely:
| Stat | Effect | How to Improve |
|---|---|---|
| Plant Health | Healthier plants grow faster | Feed your plants fruit or food |
| Growth Rate | Faster growth leads to quicker harvests | Maintain high plant health |
| Size Multiplier | Bigger multiplier results in larger fruit | Use gardening gear like watering cans |
Mutations also have a chance to carry over as plants evolve, adding an element of unpredictability to farming.
Mechanics: Tending Evo Plants
Evo Plants differ from regular crops in that they require active care:
- Feeding: Supply fruit or food to maintain Plant Health.
- Growth Management: Keep your plant healthy to maximize Growth Rate.
- Enhancing Size: Utilize gardening tools to increase Size Multiplier, yielding larger and more valuable fruit.
These mechanics encourage a hands-on approach, combining strategy with a bit of luck in mutation outcomes.
