Your Garden

Overview

YOUR GARDEN is the bed of three mounds on the Ball Grove hub. Each mound can hold a bush — a rare drop from winning harvests — and a planted bush is an idle source of balls, gems, gold balls and the occasional Time Candy: tap its loot pips whenever it is ready, let it regrow, repeat. It is also the only home of the Bramble Hedgehog.

1. Win a Ball Grove run — every win rolls for a bush.
2. A bush is planted ready on the leftmost empty mound.
3. Tap its 4 loot pips until their lives run out — every tap pays.
4. It regrows in 5h with freshly rolled pips.

An empty mound reads NOT UNLOCKED. Tap it and the game tells you how to fill it: “Bushes are a RARE DROP from a grove COMPLETION”, that mound's odds (“HARD 1 in 50 · REGULAR 1 in 150” for the first), and “Complete runs to plant one here.”

Planting a bush

Every won run — solo or duo, any difficulty — rolls once for a bush. The roll always targets the leftmost empty mound, and each mound has its own odds: the first bush is the cheapest, the third the dearest, and Regular is exactly 3× rarer than Hard at every step. Lost runs and runs after all 3 mounds are planted roll nothing.

Bush drop ladder

Next empty mound	Chance per win (Hard)	Chance per win (Regular)	Expected wins (Hard / Regular)
Mound 1	2% (1 in 50)	0.667% (1 in 150)	50 / 150
Mound 2	1% (1 in 100)	0.333% (1 in 300)	100 / 300
Mound 3	0.5% (1 in 200)	0.167% (1 in 600)	200 / 600

A drop shows up on the results screen as a purple RARE DROP basket with a “BUSH! Planted in your farm. (n/3)” line, goes to your friends' timeline, and is planted ready — its loot pips are already rolled, so you can harvest it the moment you get back to the hub.

Expected wins to fill all three mounds on Hard: about 350; on Regular about 1,050.

Harvesting a bush

A ready bush shows 4 loot pips. When the bush grows, each pip rolls its own reward kind — first a 0.5% (1 in 200) roll for a Time Candy pip, otherwise balls, gems or gold balls at equal thirds — and gets 3 lives (the small dots under it). You tap pips individually:

1. Every tap on a live pip pays its kind — the amounts below, credited straight to your wallet with a reward flyer.
2. Then a 50% roll decides whether one of that pip's lives burns. Lives are the point: on average a pip pays 6 times before it is spent.
3. Every tap also rolls 0.0833% (1 in 1,200) for the Bramble Hedgehog to scurry out (see below).
4. When every pip is out of lives the bush breaks and starts REGROWING — 5h later it is back with a fresh set of pips and freshly rolled kinds.

What a pip pays

	Pip kind	Chance a pip is this kind	Per tap	Per tap with a Bramble Hedgehog (1★+)
	Balls	33.2% (1 in 3.02)	+25	+28
	Gems	33.2% (1 in 3.02)	+10	+11
	Gold Balls	33.2% (1 in 3.02)	+200	+220
	30 Min Time Candy	0.5% (1 in 200)	+1	+1

What a bush is worth

Averages for one bush, one cycle (4 pips × 3 lives ÷ 50% = 24 paying taps), every 5h. The second column assumes a 2★ Bramble Hedgehog (10% more per tap, 1 extra life per pip); a 3★ favourite crop shifts the mix rather than the total.

With all 3 bushes planted that is roughly 597 balls, 239 gems and 4,776 gold balls every 5 hours you remember to visit.

The Bramble Hedgehog

The Bramble Hedgehog (RARE) hides in your bushes. Every tap on a live pip rolls 0.0833% (1 in 1,200) for it to pop out — about 1.98% (1 in 50.5) per bush cycle, or one hedgehog roughly every 50 bushes. When it hits, confetti, and a full reveal: “BUSH PET FOUND — A Bramble Hedgehog was hiding in your bush!” It posts to your friends' timeline (“found Bramble Hedgehog in the Ball Grove!”) and, together with the Fruit Worm, unlocks the Grove Secrets trophy.

Tradable

Never — bush catches are its only source

Fusable

Yes — duplicates from later bushes fuse it to 2★ and 3★, which is its whole progression

Abilities

3, one per star — ability N needs N★

Applies

To your garden whether or not it is equipped — the game uses the best star you own

Favorite Crop is picked on the pet's card in the Pets menu — three chips, BALLS, GEMS or GOLD BALLS. Below 3★ the card reads “Fuse to 3★ to pick which crop your bushes grow +50% more often.” Pip kinds are rolled the moment a bush is tapped out (and when a new bush is planted), so set your favourite before you spend a bush's last life — the choice shows up in its next cycle.

Timers

Regrow

5h from the tap that spends the last life — the mound shows “REGROWING · 4h 59m 12s” style countdown with the bare bush

Ready

No cap on how long a ready bush waits — it never rots. Pips and their kinds are fixed until you spend them (they were rolled when the bush last broke)

New bush

Planted ready immediately, with rolled pips

Basket feeds

Not a garden timer, but related: at most 30 Fruit Baskets can be opened per hour

A cycle is “tap it out, wait 5h”, so a bush that is tapped the moment it is ready produces up to 4.8 harvests a day. Kinds are re-rolled at every regrow, so a bush that grew three gold-ball pips this time is a fresh roll next time.

Tips

• Harvest on Hard to plant faster — the first mound is 1 in 50 on Hard against 1 in 150 on Regular, and the same 3× holds for every mound.
• Tap every pip: each one pays on every tap and only has a 50% chance to lose a life, so there is no reason to stop early — the bush only regrows once all 4 are spent.
• Gold-ball pips are the prize (200 gold balls a tap, about 1,200 per pip). A 3★ hedgehog set to GOLD BALLS makes 43% of pips gold.
• The hedgehog roll is per tap, so a 2★ hedgehog (more lives, more taps) also makes the next hedgehog more likely — duplicates are exactly what you want.
• Check the garden every 5 hours: regrow starts from the last tap, so a bush left ready is a bush not regrowing.
