🧩 Plant Lineup Used

Plant	Purpose
Sunflower	Passive income generation throughout waves.
Lily Pad	Allows placing defense in the pool lanes.
Fume-Shroom	Mid-range splash damage, effective against grouped zombies.
Gloom-Shroom	Main AoE powerhouse for pool and lane defense.
Pumpkin	Protective shell to shield Gloom-Shrooms and Magnet-Shrooms.
Garlic	Redirects zombies into controlled lanes for maximum AoE.
Magnet-Shroom	Removes helmets and ladders, simplifying waves.
Tall-Nut / Wall-Nut	Heavy front-line defense (optional).

🧱 Field Layout

The setup focuses on two Garlic-controlled lanes funneling all zombies toward powerful Gloom-Shroom clusters.

Layout breakdown:

• First two columns: Sunflowers (for constant income).
• Middle rows: Lily Pads + Gloom-Shrooms (main kill zones).
• Behind them: Pumpkins to protect from heavy hits.
• Front line: Garlics to keep zombies within your splash lanes.
• Optionally, add Magnets in upper and lower rows for utility.

🧄 Garlics wear out over time — replace them at the end of each flag.

⚙️ How It Works

1. Setup before the first wave: Spend around 4000 sun to fill the board like the example image.
2. Zombies spawn → All get redirected into 2-3 lanes by Garlic.
3. Gloom-Shrooms and Fume-Shrooms instantly clear grouped enemies.
4. Pumpkins ensure your core plants survive all 5 waves.
5. Coins and diamonds drop frequently because of dense zombie kills.

⚡ Maintenance Tips

• Replace Garlic and Pumpkins each flag as they wear down.
• Keep at least 400–600 sun reserve for emergency replacements.
• Enable 2.5× Speed Mode for faster farming.
• Avoid planting unnecessary items — this saves sun for reinforcements.

💵 Expected Results

Run Duration	Coins Earned	Difficulty	Win Rate
~5–6 minutes	1500–3000+	Easy	100% (AFK-safe with maintenance)

Players using this strategy report steady coin income and consistent success with minimal replanting needed.

🧠 Bonus Tip

If you also want the Sol Invictus achievement, finish the level with 2000+ sun remaining by keeping Sunflowers active and avoiding overspending during the last flag. This setup aligns perfectly with psyhovenko’s Gloom–Garlic method.
