Grow a Garden has steadily grown into one of the most creative and community-driven farming games on Roblox, combining casual gardening mechanics with deeply strategic systems involving mutations, pets, trading, and rare seeds. But with the arrival of the Trader Hub update, the game is entering an entirely new era—one that massively expands player-to-player interactions, opens new economic pathways, and introduces a fresh progression system around streaks, stalls, tokens, and collectible pets.This update doesn’t just add new items. It adds an entire trading ecosystem, complete with a dedicated hub, high-value currency, and progression-reward loops that transform how players think about gardens, rare fruits, and long-term goals.If you’re trying to understand everything this update adds—and how to make the most of it—this guide breaks down every new mechanic in detail.The Trader Hub: A New Core Feature for Grow a GardenAt the center of the update sits the much-anticipated Trader Hub—a new location accessible through a glowing portal in your garden world. For many players, the portal appeared immediately; for others, it required progressing past the tutorial or holding enough in-game currency. If you don't see the portal yet, you’ll need around 100 million to 1 billion shekels in your account and must be fully out of the early-game tutorial.Once inside, you’ll immediately notice something striking: this world is alive. Even before launch, players were able to enter it publicly, so the place is packed with booths, stalls, and gardeners trading every imaginable item. This hub fundamentally changes Grow a Garden by providingublic stalls for item listingsToken-based tradingCosmetic stall skinsPlayer-driven pricingRare items being circulated for the first timeIt’s essentially a real-time marketplace—something the community has been asking for since the game’s earliest updates.Stalls: Your New Trading BaseInside the Trader Hub, players can claim one of the new 10 stalls—interactive booths where you list items for sale. Stalls are obtained through containers that cost either Robux or the newly introduced tokens.Once you claim an unoccupied boothress E to interact.Choose your stall skin (cosmetic).Click List Item.Select an item from your inventory.Set your price in tokens.And this brings us to the biggest addition to the game…Tokens: The New Currency That Changes EverythingTokens are the backbone of the Trader Hub update. They’re valuable, rare, highly sought-after, and—most importantly—they can be used to purchase almost everything that used to be Robux-exclusive.What are Tokens Worth?Tokens have a very simple valuation system:1 token = 1 Robux in valueWhen a player buys your item for 10 tokens, you receive 9 (because of a 1-token marketplace fee). This Robux-equivalent pricing immediately stabilizes the economy and makes item values predictable.How to Get TokensThere are two primary methods:1. Trade Items for TokensThis is the main free-to-play method. By listing rare seeds, mutated fruits, or valuable items on your stall, players can buy them using tokens.2. Buy Tokens With RobuxDirect token purchases exist, though the display prices may appear inconsistent due to early-release bugs. Still, the conversion remains 1 Robux → 1 token.You Can Now Buy Everything With TokensThis is arguably the most revolutionary part of the update.For the first time ever, free-to-play players can buy:Robux chestsPremium seedsPetsGarden expansionsCosmeticsShop itemsTokens mirror Robux in all in-game stores. For example:A Robux-only seed can now be purchased with tokensA Robux chest can be opened without spending any RobuxSeed packs, tools, and pets all accept tokensThe only limitation:Tokens only work inside Grow a Garden, not across Roblox.This update massively levels the playing field between paying and non-paying players. While tokens are hard to earn, their presence democratizes access to formerly premium gameplay advantages.Trader Troy Update: New Streak Rewards and ItemsNext, we return to Trader Troy—the long-standing progression NPC. His streak rewards have been expanded dramatically. Previously capped at streak 12, the system now offerstreak 17Streak 25Streak 35Streak 50 (final)With these expansions come new seeds, new pets, and the ultra-rare booth sign.New Seeds Added in the UpdateOnly three seeds were added, but they are tied directly to the new streak levels and serve as stepping stones into advanced gameplay.1. Coin Fruit (Streak 17)A simple, early high-streak plant with moderate value.Average sell value: 20,000 shekelsEasy to harvestFunctions as the base for new Coin MutationVisuals are simple but fitting for its streak tierWhile not powerful, Coin Fruit is extremely important because two of the new pets interact with it.2. Cherry Bloom (Streak 25)Aesthetic and colorful, Cherry Bloom is a one-harvest plant with a great look but modest earnings.Average sell value: 60,000–76,000 shekelsSingle-harvest onlyEasy to unlock and growMore useful as a decorative or tradable fruit3. Pinkside Dandelion (Streak 35)The star of the seed update. This vibrant sunflower-like plant provides genuinely strong income.Average sell value: 159,000–200,000 shekelsGood for mid-game grindingPossibly based on the original sunflower modelVery efficient for streak-level economicsThis is the only new seed that meaningfully increases shekel income.New Pets and Their AbilitiesPets are a highlight of the update, each offering a unique gameplay mechanic and new ways to interact with your garden economy.1. Shekeling (Streak 17)The Shekeling may be small, but its unique sacrifice mechanic makes it fascinating.AbilitiesGenerates 1.25 shekels per second passivelyEvery 5 minutes, it sacrifices itself at a Coin FruitMutation applied: Coin Mutation (x3 multiplier)Pet is consumed and disappearsMutation cannot be mimickedIs it good?It’s niche, but introduces a new mutation, giving collectors and high-level players something meaningful to farm and trade.2. Messenger Pigeon (Streak 25)A mobility-based pet focused on transporting mutations.AbilitiesEvery 4 minutes, takes a mutation from one fruitDelivers that mutation to a random player’s fruitIgnores fruit types and favoritesWhat this meansThe pigeon likely transfers (not duplicates) mutations. This makes it a tool forending mutations to alt accountsTrading mutation effects indirectlyMoving high-tier mutations from expendable plants to valuable onesIt’s situational, but clever players will find uses.3. Camel (Streak 35)A surprisingly powerful pet, especially given how easy it is to unlock.AbilitiesEvery 10 minutes, gathers 5.6 prickly-type plantsForms a caravan with other camelsDelivers packages (one per fruit collected)Packages contain random rewardsRewards include:Rare fruitsHigh-tier variantsGears and materials (likely)Better camel groups = better lootThis pet will likely become a long-term farm tool for progression-focused players.The Booth Sign (Streak 50)The final streak reward unlocks the Booth Sign, one of the most useful trading tools ever added.Unlock chance: 5% at streak 50Alternatively purchased in Trader HubLets you display your sale items above your headAllows active advertising instead of waiting at your boothPlayers can now roam the marketplace showcasing:Rare mutationsHigh-value petsLimited seedsToken-priced itemsThis will reshape the trading culture inside Grow a Garden.The New Coin MutationTriggered by the Shekeling, the Coin Mutation is a new addition:Multiplier: x3Exclusive to Coin FruitVisual effect: coin-like shimmering overlayCannot be mimicked or duplicatedAlthough not the most powerful mutation, its exclusivity makes it collectable.Final Thoughts: A Small Update With Massive ImpactWhile the update may appear small in terms of raw content—only three new seeds, a few pets, and a new mutation—the systems introduced are enormous.What this update really changes:A functioning player economyF2P access to premium itemsToken-based tradingMarketplace-driven pricingNew streak progressionA whole trading culture around stalls and booth advertisingIt is the foundation for all future economic updates in Grow a Garden.As more rare seeds, mutations, or pets get introduced, the Token system and Trader Hub will become essential tools for collectors, farmers, and traders.This is the beginning of Grow a Garden’s next chapter—one defined not just by plants and pets, but by economy, strategy, rarity, and community-driven commerce.If the developers continue expanding on this foundation, the Trader Hub may eventually become one of the most important features in the entire game.
