How to Farm Harvest Points Solo in Grow a Garden Summer Harvest Event Guide

The Summer Harvest Event in Grow a Garden has been causing major frustration among players—and it’s easy to see why. From unrealistic point goals to rare seed drops, this event isn’t kind to solo players. But there’s good news: there is a reliable solo method that works. If you’re tired of relying on others and want to farm harvest points on your own, this guide breaks down the tomato farming method step by step so you can grind rewards efficiently—even without a team.

Why This Event Is Difficult for Solo Players

Most of the rewards in the Summer Harvest Event are locked behind high point requirements. Getting thousands of points as a solo player is a huge grind—especially when most high-yield seeds are incredibly rare. Fortunately, the developers recently updated the event with quality-of-life improvements, like the ability to submit all fruits at once via Georgia (once the event is live). But even with this buff, maximizing your gains as a solo player requires strategy.

Best Solo Farming Method: Tomato Seed Strategy

Here’s how to make the tomato method work for you:

1. Get an Auto Clicker

Use a reliable auto clicker like OP AutoClick for PC or a trusted mobile option. Set your hotkey (e.g., Ctrl+X), and let the tool farm seeds or click menus while you’re AFK.

2. Farm Tomato Seeds

Tomato seeds are common, fast-growing, and low-maintenance. You can stockpile hundreds of them in just a day or two of AFKing. Each tomato plant gives about 3 fruits, and each fruit is worth around 3 points.

3. Use Basic Sprinklers

Buy tons of basic sprinklers from the gear shop. They increase growth speed, which lets you harvest more tomatoes faster. Place them efficiently to cover multiple plants at once.

4. Optimize Your Garden Layout

Group all your tomato plants in a tight circle around your sprinklers. This lets you maximize the effect of each sprinkler and use space more efficiently.

5. Calculate Your Points

Let’s break it down:

• 500 tomato plants × 3 fruits = 1,500 tomatoes
• 1,500 tomatoes × 3 points each = 4,500 harvest points

This is a realistic target for a solo player, enough to unlock seed packs, eggs, and uncommon rewards—though not enough for prismatic-tier items, which still require multiplayer grinding.

Extra Tips for Higher Efficiency

• Join Discord servers to team up with others. Multiple solo players using the tomato method can easily break the 20,000+ point range together.
• Beware of scammers when trading or forming groups. Stick to trusted servers and use common sense.
• Ignore rare seed methods like Sugar Apple or Fijaya unless you’re lucky—these are too inconsistent to rely on.

The tomato method isn’t flashy, but it works. For solo players looking to earn decent Summer Harvest rewards in Grow a Garden without needing a full team, this method is your best bet. Focus on collecting seed packs and building up your farming efficiency gradually. While you won’t hit the highest tier rewards solo, you’ll still walk away with solid gains without burning out. If the developers lower the point requirements in a future update (which they should), this strategy will become even more rewarding. Until then, plant smart, automate wisely, and harvest often.
