The Garden
The Garden is an island where players can farm. It is similar to the Private Island in that each player has their own and they can build on it. The player must be SkyBlock Level 5 to access The Garden.
Mechanics

The menu can be accessed with /gardenlevels, /gardenlevelsmenu (both of which can only be accessed while on the Garden), or by going to the Farming Skill menu, where the icon is located at the bottom of the menu, above the "Go Back" and "Close" buttons. It can only be accessed after the player has visited the Garden at least once.
Unlike Skills, there is no "Level 0", meaning that the player starts at
Garden I (1). Additionally, Level 1 is automatically unlocked when visiting the Garden for the first time after it is unlocked (reaching SkyBlock Level 5). Also, there are only 15 levels (
Garden I (1) –
Garden XV (15)).
Crops
[edit | edit source]Different crops can be grown and harvested in The Garden, but require a Garden level to be unlocked. Nether Wart and Mushroom growth speed is also increased in the Garden, on top of the increase in growth speed gained by the Garden level.
The average amount for each base drop is .
Crop Growth
[edit | edit source]The Crop Growth influences how fast crops planted in the Garden grow. Every 1 Crop Growth increases the growing speed by 1%, up to a maximum of +210 Crop Growth at Garden level 15, Crop Speed Attribute level 10 and DNA Analysis Milestone 6 (crops grow 210% faster). Each Garden level gives +10 Crop Growth after Garden level 1, and each DNA Analysis Milestone gives +10 Crop Growth.
Crops in The Garden do not require light to grow at maximum speed, but they do require water. Crops will not grow at all on completely dry soil (even with Bone Meal or Enchanted Bone Meal), and will receive a 40% growth speed debuff on soil that is not fully moist.
Pumpkin and Melon plants only require water for the stem to grow. After it is grown, new pumpkins and melons will grow regardless of soil moisture.
Crop Growing Mechanics
[edit | edit source]Every 10 game ticks (0.5s) the server sends a number of random ticks to randomly selected crop blocks within a plot. If a crop receives a random tick, it grows by one growth stage. If a crop is already fully grown, nothing happens. Due to this behavior, harvested crops replenish fastest when no crops are yet fully grown, and slowest when almost all crops are already grown.
Crops only grow if the player is in the Garden, regardless of distance to the plot. They do not grow if the player is outside the Garden or offline.
Pests
[edit | edit source]After reaching garden level 5, Pests are Mobs that have a chance of appearing whenever a Player breaks a crop in The Garden. There are 13 types of pests that can spawn. When 4 or more pests are on The Garden, a Player's Farming Fortune will decrease up to 8 pests. Farming Fortune can be restored by capturing the pests, or can be avoided by having more Bonus Pest Chance. Pests can also be exchanged at
Pesthunter Phillip for temporary Farming Fortune.
The Desk
[edit | edit source]The Desk is a key feature of The Garden, which can be found in the Barn. It allows the player to configure Plots, add Crop Upgrades, access SkyMart, view Crop Milestones, and view and change the Barn's Skin. It can also be opened using the /desk command (only works while in The Garden).
The cost of your garden plots that you may have will likely be different than the ones shown above in the UI. This is because the costs shown in the above UI are if the plots are bought in numerical order. The cost of a plot depends on the "tier" of the plot and how many plots you have already unlocked in that "tier", not the plot number. The "tier" of a specific plot is determined by its
Garden Level requirement, which can either be 1, 3, 5, or 7. In addition, the cost(s) for all remaining plot(s) that have not been unlocked in a specific tier will all be the same, unlike the UI above, where the plot costs are all different. This means that if n plots have been bought in a single tier, the cost for every other plot in the tier will be cost of the nth plot of the tier, shown above in the UI.
For example, if Plots 1, 2, and 3 were bought, Plot 4 will cost Compost x8. But if Plots 1 and 3 were only bought, the costs for both Plots 2 and 4 will be Compost x4, as that is the cost in the UI for Plot 3, after two "Tier 1" plots have already been bought. The costs for plots in other tiers will remain unaffected, as they are only affected by other plots in their "tier".
Composter
[edit | edit source]The Composter is a feature that allows the player to turn crops and other Organic Matter into Compost. It requires Machine Fuel such as
Biofuel to operate. It can create 1 Compost every 10 minutes, with each Compost requiring 4000 Organic Matter and 2000 Fuel.
Plots
[edit | edit source]The Garden has 24 Plots in a 5x5 grid, with the Barn in the middle. Each plot is 96x96 blocks. To unlock a plot, the player has to spend
Compost or
Compost Bundles at the Desk. There is also a
Garden Level requirement. After unlocking the plot, it needs to be cleaned.
Plot Eraser can clean the plot instantly.
Sam's Scythe or a
Garden Scythe can be used to break plants faster. Leaves will decay once the plot is over 70% clean. Breaking the following blocks on the plot counts towards cleaning progress:
Dirt and
Grass Blocks above ground level
Stone
Flowers
Long Grass
Double Tallgrass
Wood
Leaves
After cleaning the plot, the player can paste a preset onto it at the Desk, which will overwrite the blocks on the plot. The player can use default presets for crops, which use the specific crop's corresponding "seed" item. The seeds can be obtained through the Bazaar if the player has a Booster Cookie active, or from the player's inventory and Sacks. The player can also save plots as custom presets, which will only paste non-crop blocks and will not drop blocks broken by the player.
Melon Slices and
Pumpkin blocks in the player's inventory will be automatically converted to seeds. Enchanted forms of crops can also be used to paste plots, and the difference will be refunded into the player's inventory once pasting is done. (Note: While this is supposed to work with sacks too, it currently only works with crops in the player's inventory.)
-
Super Flat Preset
-
Wheat Preset
-
Carrot Preset

Pumpkin Preset
-
Sugar Cane Preset
-
Melon Preset
-
Cactus Preset
-

The cost to unlock plots is given in the table below. Each plot gives +3 Farming Fortune and +5 SkyBlock XP.
Crop Upgrades
[edit | edit source]Crop Upgrades increase the player's Crop Fortune while harvesting certain crops. Each crop can be upgraded at the Desk for Copper, and each upgrade grants +5 Crop Fortune and +1 SkyBlock XP.
| Level | Requirement | Cost | Cumulative Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tier I | 5 Copper | 5 Copper | |
| Tier II | 10 Copper | 15 Copper | |
| Tier III | 20 Copper | 35 Copper | |
| Tier IV | 50 Copper | 85 Copper | |
| Tier V | 100 Copper | 185 Copper | |
| Tier VI | 500 Copper | 685 Copper | |
| Tier VII | 1,000 Copper | 1,685 Copper | |
| Tier VIII | 2,000 Copper | 3,685 Copper | |
| Tier IX | 4,000 Copper | 7,685 Copper |
Visitors
[edit | edit source]Visitors are NPCs across SkyBlock that occasionally visit the player's Garden. The player will receive an offer from them. Offers can be accepted or declined.
Visitors will stay in the Garden until the player accepts or declines their offer. A maximum of 5 Visitors can be in the Garden at one time.
All Visitors come with a rarity tag. The higher the rarity of a Visitor, the rarer it is to have them visit.
Requests
[edit | edit source]When visiting, Visitors will request varying amounts of certain items.The quantity of the items that a Visitor requests is determined by a base number of items, the player's
Garden level, and the visitors rarity.
Rewards
[edit | edit source]Visitors offer
Farming XP,
Garden XP, Copper, Bits, and sometimes other unique rewards to the player if they accept the visitor's request.
All Visitors also have a chance to give one of the following items:
Hypercharge Chip (3%)
Quickdraw Chip (3%)
Flowering Bouquet (2%)
Overgrown Grass (0.1%)
Green Bandana (0.4%, RARE Visitors and above only)
Visitor's Logbook
[edit | edit source]The Visitor's Logbook keeps track of who has visited the player's Garden, and requirements for NPCs to visit.
SkyMart
[edit | edit source]SkyMart is a shop accessible through the Desk. It allows the player to purchase Farming-related Equipment, Tools, Barn Skins and more. Most of the items are purchased with Copper, but Coins and SkyBlock Gems are also used as currencies.
Garden Milestones
[edit | edit source]
Farming Experience obtained from Garden Milestones is not affected by Farming Wisdom.
Crop Milestones
[edit | edit source]Crop Milestones can be reached by harvesting certain amounts of crops. When milestones are reached, they grant
Garden XP,
Farming XP, and SkyBlock XP. Crop Milestones can only be leveled up while farming on The Garden. Any crops broken outside The Garden will not count towards this milestone (Private Island, Barn, etc.). Additionally crops farmed by any means that are not the player do not count towards Crop Milestones even though they still count towards Collection progress.
Crop Milestones have 46 tiers per crop.
Visitor Milestones
[edit | edit source]There are 2 types of Visitor Milestones:
- Unique Visitors Served, which increases based on the amount of offers from unique Visitors the player has accepted
- Offers Accepted, which increases based on the amount of offers from Visitors the player has accepted
Both grant
Garden XP,
Farming XP, and SkyBlock XP when milestones are reached.
Barn Skins
[edit | edit source]Barn Skins are a type of cosmetic that changes the look of the Barn. They can be applied to the Barn at the Desk.
Greenhouse
[edit | edit source]After reaching
Garden VII (7), the
Carpenter can visit The Garden. Completing their offer for the first time grants the
Greenhouse Blueprint, which can be given to
Sam to unlock the Greenhouse.
The Greenhouse allows the player to plant regular crops and grow Mutations. Up to 3 Greenhouse plots can be unlocked and placed.
Bugs
[edit | edit source]- During the tutorial quest, the first visitor currently does not appear. Leaving the Garden (and making sure no one else is on it) and then rejoining it about 10 seconds later should make them appear.
Trivia
[edit | edit source]- The only SPECIAL Visitor is
Spaceman. They are not accessible anywhere in SkyBlock. - The Fear Mongerer Visitor turns into a bat when leaving the garden.
- Talking to a Visitor while being a guest on someone else's Garden will result in the following dialogue. Hmm... I haven't seen you around here before. Do you work here?.
- Visitors have a variety of lines while waiting in queue, similarly to Minions.
- One of those lines features one of the visitors asking what is the time, another visitor answers and their dialogue changes with the time. This is the only way to tell SkyBlock time precisely to the minute.
- There is a limit of 64 simultaneous primed TNT entities on the player's Private Island and The Garden.
