The Honey Bee is one of five brand new bee pets in Grow A Garden, and if you watch a lot of Grow A Garden content, you may have seen creators call this bee, the Golden Bee, as that’s what the bee was first called.
Now it has launched officially launched in-game, it’s now the Honey Bee, which is a much better name for it. Keep on reading for the low-down on the Honey Bee pet, and find out what benefit it’ll give you and your garden.
What Is The Grow A Garden Honey Bee Pet?
The Honey Bee pet is ranked as being a “rare” pet, and it can be found inside a Bee Egg.
Bee eggs aren’t eggs you can purchase with sheckles, the usual Grow A Garden currency.
Each of the bee eggs cost 18 Honey Coins, and you make Honey Coins by collecting your pollinated fruit, and handing it to Onett inside the wooden hive on the event display in the center of the field.
Once you’ve handed over 10kg (or more) of pollinated fruit, the machine will take 3 minutes to turn the fruit into honey. After those 3 minutes are up, you get 10 Honey Coins.
To use your Honey Coins, you “talk” to the Queen Bee, and choose the “trade” option from those she gives you, and this opens the Honey Shop.
The Bee Eggs are 18 Honey Coins each, and labelled as being Mythical, in terms of rarity, but you can use Robux to purchase them also, and they’re 129 each.
When you get a bee egg, you will get one of these five bee pets:
The Honey Bee is the second rarest bee pet to hatch, with a chance of 25%.
It has such a cute design, with a gold and brown bee design, with the same stripes as the standard bee, and the same smiley expression, but with yellow wings instead of white.
As the honey bee flies around your garden, a falling golden petal animation sprinkles from its stomach downwards.
What Benefit Does The Grow A Garden Honey Bee Give You?
The honey bee is very similar to the standard bee, in that they both pollinate your fruit.
With the honey bee, every 19:24 minutes it flies to a nearby fruit and pollinates it, applying the pollination mutation.
I like that when the Bizzy Bees update is over, and we won’t get the bees pollinating our crops, we can use our bee pets to give our crops the pollinated mutation long after the update ends.
You don’t have to do anything, it just flies around your garden pollinating your crops every 19 minutes.
It’s very similar to the standard bee, except the standard bee pollinates every 24 minutes, so this one is 5 minutes quicker.
