How to Farm Spooky Egg in Grow a Garden + AFK Event Guide!

The Halloween update in Grow a Garden has arrived, and it brings one of the most rewarding farming events yet — the Spooky Egg event. With the right setup, you can earn more than 400 spooky eggs per day, even while AFK. Whether you’re on PC or mobile, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know to farm efficiently and get the best Halloween rewards.

How the Halloween Event Works

The main feature of this event is the Witch’s Cauldron, located in the Halloween area. Every 2 minutes, you can donate fruits to the cauldron for rewards like spooky eggs, candy corn, and pumpkin crates.

• You’ll get more rewards depending on how many points you contribute.
• Playing solo can actually be better since you’ll get the top reward tier by donating the most points yourself.
• Each round gives around 2 spooky eggs and 27 candy corn, adding up to hundreds of eggs daily if you stay consistent.

Candy corn can be used in the Halloween Market to buy cosmetics, seeds, and pets. The most notable ones include the Reaper pet for XP boosts and the Wolf pet, which temporarily turns you into a werewolf for added speed and jump height.

Best Crops to Use for Farming

To fill the cauldron efficiently, focus on multi-harvest, fast-growing crops. The faster your crops grow, the more fruits you can donate every 2 minutes. Recommended crops include:

• Tomatoes – Easy to plant and regrow quickly.
• Coconuts – Great for higher yields.
• Pepper Plants – Fast regrowth, suitable for smaller gardens.
• Sugar Apples – Top choice if you already have a large supply.

You don’t need rare or mutated crops for this. The goal is to maximize the number of harvests per minute, not rarity.

How to AFK Farm Spooky Eggs (PC & Mobile)

For PC Players:

• Use a macro program like Tiny Task to record your farming routine.
• Set your camera at a fixed angle and record your character walking to crops, harvesting them, teleporting to the cauldron, donating fruits, and repeating the process.
• Enable continuous playback so the macro runs automatically until you stop it.
• Stay in a private server for maximum rewards and fewer interruptions.

For Mobile Players:

• Use a macro app like ClickMate and set it to infinite playback.
• Place your multi-harvest crops (like tomatoes) close to your starting point.
• Record a short loop of collecting fruits and donating them to the cauldron.
• Keep your camera position fixed throughout the process.

If there’s an earthquake event or map change, you may need to readjust the camera before restarting the macro.

Extra Tips for Maximizing Rewards

1. Play Solo: Private servers give you full control over points and rewards.
2. Use Fast Pets: Equip pets that boost hatching speed or harvesting efficiency.
3. Check the Market Hourly: The Halloween Market appears periodically, so don’t miss your chance to buy exclusive pets and items.
4. Donate to the Jack-o’-Lantern: Every 2 hours, donate Halloween-themed plants for extra spooky rewards.
5. Craft Event Lanterns: You’ll need these to teleport quickly to the event area; stock up a few hundred before going AFK.

The Spooky Egg event is one of the easiest and most rewarding updates in Grow a Garden. With a simple setup and a good macro, you can farm up to 480 spooky eggs per day while doing other things — completely AFK. Make sure to take advantage of the Halloween Market for exclusive items and pets before the event ends. If you haven’t started farming yet, now’s the time. Set up your crops, load your macro, and let the spooky harvest begin!
