How to Get the Medium Toy in Grow a Garden

The Medium Toy is a Legendary piece of gear introduced in Grow a Garden on July 12, 2025, as part of Update 1.14.0. As one of the most valuable mid-tier ability enhancers in the game, it is commonly used by players who want a consistent and affordable way to improve their pets’ performance during gardening, gathering, and exploration activities. The gear can currently be purchased in-game through the Gear Shop, making it accessible to both free-to-play and premium players.

Appearance

Visually, the Medium Toy stands out due to its simple but vibrant design. It consists of:

  • Two bright blue spheres
  • A matching blue pole that connects the spheres horizontally

The design resembles a classic toy dumbbell, symbolizing balance and moderate strength. Despite being a Legendary item, its visual style stays consistent with the playful and colorful aesthetic of other gear in Grow a Garden.

The Medium Toy is a valuable legendary gear item used to enhance the abilities of Grow a Garden pets, providing a five-minute additive boost equal to two Small Toys. Featuring two blue spheres connected by a blue pole, it can be activated by double-tapping any pet, including Golden and Rainbow variants. Easily obtainable from the Gear Shop for Sheckles or Robux, the Medium Toy remains one of the most reliable ways for players to improve their pets’ performance during gardening and resource-gathering activities.

Usage

The Medium Toy is primarily used to temporarily enhance a pet’s passive ability. When activated, it provides a medium-level stat boost that lasts for 5 minutes.

How to Activate

To use the Medium Toy:

  1. Select the pet you want to boost.
  2. Double-tap the pet to activate the gear.
  3. The pet immediately receives the ability boost and begins benefiting from the effect.

Effect Details

  • The boost is additive, meaning it increases the pet’s ability on top of its base value.
  • The effect applies equally to all pets of the same species, regardless of rarity (Normal, Golden, or Rainbow).
  • The strength of the buff is equivalent to two Small Toys, making it significantly better than a single Small Toy but still below the Large Toy tier.
  • The Medium Toy is often used during timed tasks or activities where increased efficiency is important, such as resource farming or event missions.

The Medium Toy can currently be acquired in the following ways:

Trivia

  • There was once a notable bug where the Medium Toy’s boost never expired if a pet had 0 hunger.
    This glitch caused the buff to become permanent until the pet’s hunger changed.
    A similar issue also affected the Small Toy.
  • The Medium Toy is sometimes considered the “budget alternative” to higher-tier toys since it balances affordability and utility.
  • Because the boost applies to all versions of a pet species, players often use it while testing which pet variants perform best under ability-enhancing effects.
