If you’re new to the Roblox Plants Vs Brainrots game, there are two stores you can purchase items from. There’s the Seeds Shop, which is where you buy your in-game seeds, and then the Gear Shop, which is where you buy your gear items.
If you play Grow A Garden, the concept is identical, and both stores, like Grow A Garden, restock every 5 minutes.
With both the Seeds Shop and the Gear Shop, there are some common items which are always restocked every 5 minutes, and then rarer items which are less common or very uncommon to find in stock.
Each item in both shops has a rarity rating, just like the Brainrots: Rare, Epic, Legendary, Mythic, Godly and Secrets.
The Godly and Secret seeds and gear items are hard to find in stock, which is where the official Plants Vs Brainrots Discord is helpful, as it allows you to be pinged/notified whenever a certain seed is in stock.
When it comes to the Gear Shop, there will always be Water Buckets and Frost Grenades in stock, so you can stock up on these items every 5 minutes, whenever the stock refreshes.
The Water Bucket has an “Epic” rarity rating, and costs $7,500 per water bucket, and there are between 3 and 7 Water Buckets in stock at any one time, but more often than not, it’ll be just 3 Water Buckets you find.
You can also purchase one singular Water Bucket for 34 Robux, but that’s crazy expensive, so please don’t ever use Robux to purchase something that is restocked every 5 minutes guaranteed.
When you purchase the Water Bucket, it’ll go into your “Gears” section within your inventory, and you just click to equip the bucket, and you’ll be holding it, ready to use it.
How To Use The Water Bucket In Plants Vs Brainrots
Whenever you plant a seed in Plants Vs Brainrots, you’ll see the name of the seed above where you clicked to plant it, as well as a countdown timer, to let you know how long it’ll be until the seed has fully grown.
The Water Bucket description is: “Splash on plants to make them grow 25% faster”, so, by using one Water Bucket, you will make your newly planted seed grow 25% quicker.
Something that is important to remember, is the 25% time reduction is only on the remaining time, and not the start time.
So, if you use one Water Bucket on a newly planted seed, you’ll see a big time reduction in the growing time left, but if you use one Water Bucket when there’s only 1 minute left, you’re going to only reduce the growing time by 15 seconds, so it’s just not worth it.
I tend to use Water Buckets to reduce seed growing time to under 2 minutes, and then let the time pass naturally, without wasting Water Buckets.
Water Buckets only work on growing plants, and have no effect whatsoever on fully grown plants, so don’t waste your water using them on fully grown plants, as it’ll use up your buckets, without offering any benefit at all.
The higher the rarity of a plant, the longer it will take to grow. For example, the Godly and Secret Seeds will take considerably longer than the Epic and Legendary Seeds, so that is also something to consider when deciding if you should use up your Water Buckets to quicken a seed’s growing time.
