The Crimson Thorn is hands down the most coveted plant in Grow a Garden right now, and I’m here to show you exactly how to get your hands on this incredibly rare Transcendent seed. The Crimson Thorn is a Transcendent crop that was added in the Seed Stages Event and has become the most valuable plant on Grow a Garden.
As someone who’s spent countless hours tracking this elusive seed, I can tell you that getting the Crimson Thorn requires patience, strategy, and a bit of luck. But don’t worry I’ll share all my proven methods and insider tips to maximize your chances of snagging this game changing plant.
Method | Success Rate | Requirements | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Seed Shop Purchase | 0.01% chance | 10,000,000,000 Sheckles or 1149 Robux | Primary method very rare spawn |
Red Fox Pet | Low | Red Fox + Active farming | Can steal from other players |
Lucky Harvest | Very Low | Plant other Transcendent crops | Extremely rare occurrence |
Dog Pets | Very Low | Dog/Golden Lab/Shiba Inu | Very rarely dug up |
Snail Pet | Medium | Snail + Harvesting Crimson Thorn | Yields seed when harvesting |
Red Panda Restock | Variable | Red Panda pet | Can restock shop inventory |
The most reliable way to get Crimson Thorn is through direct purchase from the Seed Shop, though you’ll need serious patience. Has a 0.01% (1/10,000) chance to be in stock in the Seed Shop. A user can purchase a seed for 10,000,000,000 or 1149 Robux.
This makes it the most expensive crop in the game, beating the Maple Resin, and the first seed in the seed shop to be over 1000 robux.
Here’s my #1 tip that changed everything for me: join the official Grow a Garden Stock Discord server. This is absolutely game changing because:
I’ve successfully grabbed 3 Crimson Thorn seeds using this method, compared to 0 from manual checking. The competition is fierce, so speed is everything!
Red Fox Approach: The Red Fox is your best pet companion for Crimson Thorn hunting. Can be stolen by a Red Fox, which means if someone else has a Crimson Thorn growing, your Red Fox might snag it. Not exactly ethical, but it’s a game mechanic!
Dog Family Strategy: Very rarely dug up by a Dog, Golden Lab or Shiba Inu. I keep all three of these pets active and have them constantly digging. The success rate is incredibly low, but it’s passive income while you focus on other methods.
Snail Method (Best for Multiplying): Once you have your first Crimson Thorn, the Snail becomes invaluable. Snail, yield a seed when harvested, giving you a chance to duplicate your investment.
Lucky Harvest can occasionally grant Crimson Thorn seeds, but this is extremely rare. Focus on planting other Transcendent crops to trigger Lucky Harvests, though don’t expect this to be your primary method.
The Crimson Thorn produces multiple crystalline fruits that can sell for substantial amounts. The Crimson Thorn has the highest base value for a multi harvest crop, beating Bone Blossom and Maple Resin.
With proper gear and mutation luck, each harvest can net you millions of Sheckles, making the 10 billion investment worthwhile for serious players.

Absolutely! As the most valuable multi harvest crop in the game, it pays for itself within a few harvest cycles, especially with good mutations. The prestige factor alone makes it worthwhile for serious players.
With Discord alerts, you could find it within hours. Without alerts, it could take weeks or months of manual checking. The 0.01% spawn rate means patience is essential.
While pets can potentially find or steal Crimson Thorn seeds, these methods are extremely unreliable. The Seed Shop purchase remains the only consistent method, though it requires significant Sheckle investment.
Use Red Fox for stealing opportunities, Dog/Golden Lab/Shiba Inu for digging chances, and Snail once you have a Crimson Thorn growing. Red Panda can also help with shop restocks.
If you can afford it, yes! Having multiple plants increases your harvest frequency and mutation opportunities. However, prioritize one first, then expand your collection.
