The next Grow A Garden update is almost here, bringing Christmas Event Part 2 with a reworked holiday celebration, new pets, seeds, and plenty of festive rewards. Here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming update and what’s currently available in the Roblox gardening game.
When Is the Next Grow A Garden Update?
The next Grow A Garden update launches Saturday, December 13 at:
- 1 PM ET / 10 AM PT – Main update goes live
- 12 PM ET / 9 AM PT – Admin Abuse event begins (one hour before)
This weekend’s update brings Christmas Event Part 2, which will add new features to the existing holiday event and reportedly rework it from its current version. Expect new pets, seeds, cosmetics, and quality-of-life improvements.
Fair warning: The developers (Jandel and Jhailatte) have a reputation for oversleeping, so the Admin Abuse event may not start exactly on time. Plan accordingly!

- Reworked Christmas Event mechanics
- New holiday-themed pets
- Additional seasonal seeds
- Fresh cosmetic items
- Quality-of-life improvements
- Continuation of the Advent Calendar rewards
Based on the pattern of weekly updates since the game launched in March 2025, this should be a substantial content drop.

Admin Abuse Events: What You Need to Know
Every update, one hour before launch, an Admin Abuse event celebrates the incoming changes. This is when chaos reigns and rare rewards flow freely.
What Happens During Admin Abuse
Special features:
- Admin-only weather effects trigger
- Shops replenish with rarest items
- Minigames reward cosmetics and valuable prizes
- Free ultra-rare pets like Chicken Zombie or Junkbot
- Admin Packs become available
Pro Tips for Admin Abuse
Play on a private server or low-population server:
- Other players’ overgrown plants can cover valuable information
- In “Find the Pet” weather, pets might be hidden inside someone’s massive Briar Rose
- Fewer players = better visibility and less competition
Stick around after the official end:
- There’s often an encore with more giveaways
- Additional weather effects may trigger
- Extra admin surprises happen frequently
Admin Pack Rewards
Opening an Admin Pack can give you:
- Grape, Ember Lily, Sugar Apple
- Beanstalk, Burning Bud, Elder Strawberry
- Crimson Thorn
- Advanced/Godly/Master/Grandmaster Sprinklers
- Levelup Lollipop
- Common/Uncommon/Rare/Mythical/Bug Eggs
Admin Quest Status
Update: The Admins have skipped Admin Quest for the second consecutive week. It’s unclear if this feature has been cancelled.
Normally, a five-hour Admin Quest appears after Admin Abuse, offering Prismatic seed rewards including:
- Crimson Thorn, Sugar Apple, Giant Pinecone – 11.11% each
- Elder Strawberry, Ember Lily, Burning Bud – 11.11% each
- Beanstalk, Rainbow Lollipop, Romanesco – 11.11% each
These quests typically require Lightcycle and Voidtouched mutations, which are more common during Admin Abuse events.
What to Prioritize Before the Update
With Christmas Event Part 2 launching December 13, here’s what to focus on now:
Must-complete tasks:
- Advent Calendar – Don’t miss daily missions (need 19/25 for Gingerbread Blossom Seed)
- Farm Christmas mutations – Stock up for the Gifts system
- Collect Christmas Eggs – Ultra-rare pets like Ice Golem (0.5%) won’t last forever
- Save Sheckles – Part 2 will likely introduce expensive new items
- Participate in Admin Abuse – December 13 at 12 PM ET for exclusive rewards
Optional but recommended:
- Complete Season Pass milestones before January 1
- Purchase limited-time items from Santa’s Stash
- Grind Snow Shoveler for Silver Lollipop (0.65% – extremely rare)
