Your Ultimate Guide to Growing Cacao in Grow a Garden (June 2025 Edition!)

Hey Gardeners! Welcome to your go-to guide for growing one of the most exciting and valuable crops in "Grow a Garden" right now: the Cacao! As of June 2025, Cacao is still a top-tier plant for making serious Sheckles, and getting your hands on those precious seeds can feel like finding a treasure. But don't worry, we're here to break down everything you need to know, from finding the seeds to making your Cacao trees super profitable.

What Makes Cacao So Special?

Cacao isn't just any old crop in "Grow a Garden." It's a Divine rarity seed, which means it's one of the rarest and most expensive plants you can get. Why bother with such a challenge? Because Cacao is a multi-harvest plant! This means you plant it once, and it keeps giving you delicious Cacao beans over and over again. Once you have a Cacao tree, it's a constant money-maker, especially if you can get those sweet mutations.

Think of it this way: instead of planting a new carrot every time you harvest, your Cacao tree is like a magic money tree that keeps spitting out valuable beans!

Where to Find Those Elusive Cacao Seeds in June 2025

Getting a Cacao seed is the first, and often trickiest, step. Here's the lowdown for June 2025:

Sam's Seed Shop (The Main Way):

• Cost: Prepare your wallet! Cacao seeds cost a whopping 2,500,000 Sheckles at Sam's Seed Shop. Yes, that's 2.5 MILLION Sheckles! You'll need to do a lot of farming of other valuable crops like Grapes, Peppers, or even just lots of Apples and Coconuts to save up.

• Rarity: This is the tricky part. Cacao is a "Divine" seed, so it rarely appears in Sam's shop. It's all about luck and patience.

• Shop Refresh: Sam's Seed Shop restocks every 5 minutes in real time. You'll see a little message at the top of your screen when it refreshes. Your best bet is to camp out at the Seed Shop, checking every time the stock updates. Some players report seeing Cacao only 2-3 times a day, so persistence is key!

• Fast Travel: Don't forget you can quickly teleport to the Seed Shop by clicking the "Seeds" button at the top of your screen. This saves time running around!

Robux Purchase (The Instant Way):

• If you're really eager and have some real-world money to spare, you can buy a Cacao seed for 679 Robux directly from the Seed Shop. This skips all the waiting and farming for Sheckles, but it uses real money.

Lucky Harvests (The Unexpected Bonus):

• Every now and then, when you're harvesting your other crops, you might get a "Lucky Harvest" which gives you an extra seed alongside your crop! While it's rare for a Divine seed like Cacao to drop this way, it's always a nice surprise.

Events (Keep an Eye Out!):

• "Grow a Garden" often has special limited-time events. While Cacao is a permanent seed, sometimes events introduce new ways to get rare seeds or offer special deals. The recent Lunar Glow Event, for example, brought Cacao in, and now the Bizzy Bees update (June 2025) is here with new content. Always check the event descriptions to see if there are any new opportunities!

Planting Your Cacao Tree: What to Know

Once you finally have that precious Cacao seed, here's how to make it grow into a money-making giant:

• Planting: Just like any other seed, click on the Cacao seed in your inventory and place it on a clear spot in your garden. It will immediately turn into a small Cacao tree.

• Space: Cacao trees aren't as massive as some of the super-rare Prismatic trees, but they do take up a decent amount of space. Make sure you have enough room. It's often a good idea to dedicate a specific section of your garden to your high-value multi-harvest trees.

• Growth: In "Grow a Garden," plants grow over time, even when you're offline (that's why it's a great AFK game!). You don't need to water or care for Cacao trees in the same way you would in real life. They'll grow on their own schedule.

• Harvesting: When your Cacao tree has Cacao beans ready, you'll see them hanging from the branches. Just walk up to the tree and press the "E" key (on PC) to collect them. Since it's a multi-harvest plant, the beans will grow back after a set amount of time.

Maximizing Your Cacao Profits: Tips for June 2025

Now for the fun part: making serious Sheckles!

Mutations, Mutations, Mutations!

• This is where the real money is! Cacao beans have a base selling price (around 10,000 Sheckles for a regular one, but some players report up to 21,000 for bigger ones), but mutations multiply that value.

• Gold Mutation: (x20 value!) This is the most common valuable mutation. You'll see a twinkling effect and little white flashes around the crop.

• Rainbow Mutation: (x50 value!) The rarest and most valuable mutation. Your plant will glow and constantly change colors.

• Shocked Mutation: (x50 value!) Happens during rare Thunderstorms. Your plants will glow brightly.

• Big Mutation: Your Cacao bean can grow much larger, increasing its base value.

• Honey Glazed Mutation: (x5 value!) NEW for June 2025! The Bizzy Bees update introduced this! You can get it from the new Honey Sprinkler or secret bee events. This is a great new way to boost Cacao value!

• Void Touched: (x135 value!) This is currently the HIGHEST multiplier! Obtained through the Blackhole event.

How to Get Mutations:

• Weather: Rain, Thunderstorms, and the new Bee Swarm events can trigger mutations. Keep an eye on the weather!

• Sprinklers: These are your best friends! Investing in sprinklers (Basic, Advanced, Godly, Master, and now the Honey Sprinkler!) placed near your Cacao trees will increase their growth speed and the chance of mutations. The new Honey Sprinkler is a must-have for the Honey Glazed mutation.

• AFK Farming: Since plants can get modifiers and mutations by just staying in the server, a common strategy is to place your Cacao trees (and other valuable plants) in a sprinkler-covered area and leave your game running while you do something else. Come back later to a massive pile of mutated Cacao!

• Pets: Some pets have abilities that boost plant growth or mutation chances. Look for pets like the new Bee pets from the Bizzy Bees event, or dogs that dig up useful items.
