How to Get and Use the Hex Serpent in Grow A Garden
The Hex Serpent is one of the rarest and most mysterious pets currently available in Grow A Garden. Unlike most pets that come from hatching eggs or completing quests, this one can only be obtained through digging, which makes it even more unique. Here’s a complete guide on how to get the Hex Serpent, what it does, and how to use it properly for maximum rewards.
How to Get the Hex Serpent
To get the Hex Serpent, you need to take part in the Gravedigger mini-event located in the Halloween area. This limited-time event allows players to dig up various treasures hidden underground.
- Find the Gravedigger NPC – Head over to the new section near the event area where you’ll see the Gravedigger standing.
- Start Digging – Click on the dirt mounds with skeleton hands to start digging. Each dig costs one attempt, which refills every few minutes or can be purchased using Robux.
Possible Rewards – You can obtain a variety of Halloween-themed rewards, including:
- Spooky Egg
- Zombie Fruit
- Crow Pet
- Goblin Pet
- Wisp Flower Seed
- Mummy’s Hand Seed
- And the Hex Serpent (2.33% chance)
The Hex Serpent is considered a Divine rarity pet, which means it’s extremely rare. Be prepared to spend time (and possibly some Robux) if you plan to collect more than one.
How to Use the Hex Serpent
Once you have the Hex Serpent, you’ll notice it has one of the most unusual abilities in Grow A Garden. Here’s how it works:
- Ability: “Every 12 minutes, the Hex Serpent performs a ritual, consuming five single-harvest plants planted in a hex circle, granting random rewards.”
- Requirement: You need to have the Hex Circle cosmetic placed in your garden. Without this, the serpent’s ability will not activate.
Important: The Hex Circle cosmetic is believed to be obtained from Spooky Crates or as one of the digging rewards, but it’s extremely rare. Make sure to collect as many spooky crates as you can during the event to increase your chances of getting it.
Once placed, plant five single-harvest crops around the Hex Circle, and the Hex Serpent will periodically “consume” them to give you random high-value rewards. The better your plants, the better the rewards you’ll get from the ritual.
Why the Hex Serpent Is So Unique
What makes the Hex Serpent stand out from other pets isn’t just its rarity—it’s how it introduces a sacrificial ritual mechanic into a farming game. This mechanic adds a new layer of gameplay, allowing players to turn their plants into rewards instead of just selling them.
Players who manage to form an army of Hex Serpents can theoretically generate an endless stream of items and materials, making this one of the most powerful pets to have in the game.
So, The Gravedigger event is time-limited, so take advantage of it whenever it appears. Save up your digs or buy them in advance to maximize your chances of getting the Hex Serpent. Keep an eye out for the Hex Circle, since the serpent’s full potential can’t be unlocked without it. Combine this pet with other Halloween pets like the Crow and Goblin for a strong seasonal setup.
The Hex Serpent Grow a Garden isn’t just a cool Halloween collectible—it’s a game-changing pet that can bring you infinite rewards when used right. Make sure to grab it while the event is still active, and start building your own cursed garden of riches.
