How to Get Tomato in Grow a Garden

The Tomato is a multi-harvest, rare crop in Grow a Garden. It is classified as a Leafy, Vegetable, and Summer type crop, meaning it is affected by items and effects that target those specific crop types.

This seed was still purchasable from the Seed Shop during the 2025 Summer Update.

Appearance

  • Tomato Seed: A solid red seed with a small green stem on top.
  • Tomato Produce: A red, studded sphere with a green stem. The fruit appears shiny and vibrant when fully ripe.

In Grow a Garden, players can not only cultivate rare crops like the Tomato but also interact with Grow a Garden pets such as Golden Labs, Shiba Inus, and Bone Dogs. These pets can help dig up hidden seeds, assist in harvests, and even uncover special items, making gardening both fun and rewarding. With the right combination of crops and pets, your garden can flourish into a vibrant, multi-harvest paradise.

  • The taller the crop, the more Tomatoes it can produce per harvest.
  • Selling a Tomato that weighs 7 kg or more grants the “GIANT TOMATO” badge.
    • To achieve this, players can use various non-limited sprinklers such as Grandmaster, Master, Godly, Advanced, or Basic Sprinklers.
  • Fully grown Tomato plants always produce at least two fruits at once, depending on height.
