The Sugar Watering Can has rightfully earned its reputation as one of the best speed-boosting tools in Grow a Garden. Its limited availability during the Ghoul Garden Part 2 event makes it even more desirable — a badge of honor for dedicated players.

The Sugar Watering Can Returns

The spooky season is in full bloom, and Grow a Garden has brought back one of its most sought-after tools — the Sugar Watering Can. This Mythical-rarity gear item has become legendary among players for one reason: it drastically cuts down plant growth time.

If you’re aiming to speed through your harvests or grow those rare Prismatic and Legendary crops before the event ends, you’ll want to get your hands on this item fast. But there’s a catch — it’s not available in any permanent shop. You’ll have to earn it through the Ghoul Garden Part 2 Halloween event running throughout October 2025.

The Current Method: The Halloween Gear Box Grind

The Sugar Watering Can can only be obtained from the Halloween Gear Box, a special event crate that you can earn through various seasonal activities. Getting it will take some effort (and a bit of luck), but the payoff is worth every minute of grind.

Step 1: Collect Candy Corn – The Event Currency

Your journey begins with Candy Corn, the lifeblood of the Ghoul Garden event. You’ll need plenty of it to purchase Gear Boxes and increase your chances of getting the Sugar Watering Can.

Here’s how to earn Candy Corn efficiently:

  • Contribute to the Witch’s Brew: Donate your crops to the central cauldron. The rarer the crop, the more Candy Corn you’ll earn.
  • Submit Plants to the Jack-O-Lantern: Fulfilling the Jack-O-Lantern’s requests can reward you with steady Candy Corn income.
  • Complete Dead Tree Quests: The Dead Tree NPC offers sets of three rotating tasks (like using the Witch’s Broom or consuming Soups). Finishing them can reward large Candy Corn bundles or even a Halloween Gear Box on rare occasions.
  • Try Grave Digging: Participate in the Gravedigger NPC event for a chance to uncover Candy Corn or, if you’re lucky, an entire Gear Box.

Step 2: Get the Halloween Gear Box

Once you’ve built up your Candy Corn stash, it’s time to get your hands on the Halloween Gear Box. There are several ways to do it — but some are much more reliable than others.

  • Buy from the Ghostly Gadgets Shop:

The most consistent method. For just 30 Candy Corn, you’re guaranteed a 100% drop—a box every time, no RNG required.

  • Complete Dead Tree Quests:

By finishing all three of the Dead Tree’s tasks, you have about a 5.04% chance to receive a Gear Box as a bonus reward. It’s a bit of a grind, but worth doing if you’re already farming Candy Corn.

  • Join the Grave Digging Event:

Participating in a successful dig gives you roughly an 11.63% chance to uncover a Gear Box. It’s the luck-based route, but it can pay off big if fortune’s on your side.

Step 3: Open the Box and Test Your Luck

Once you’ve got your boxes, it’s time to hope for the best. The Sugar Watering Can is one of the rarest items inside the Halloween Gear Box, with an approximate 9.52% drop rate.

You might need to open several boxes to pull it — but persistence pays off. Many players stockpile boxes throughout the event just to increase their chances before it ends.

Why the Sugar Watering Can Is Worth It

The Sugar Watering Can isn’t just a collector’s item — it’s a game-changer for efficient farming. Here’s why it’s one of the most valuable tools in Grow a Garden:

Supercharge Growth

This gear significantly reduces the remaining growth time of your plants, letting you harvest crops much faster than with the standard watering can. For high-tier plants like the Transcendent Great Pumpkin, this can save hours of waiting time.

Stackable Speed Boosts

The Sugar Watering Can works beautifully alongside Godly or Master Sprinklers. Together, they create an incredibly fast-growing environment that helps you maximize profits — especially during limited-time Weather Events like the Marrow Moon or Grim Reaper.

RNG Protection

Every gardener knows the pain of losing a perfect crop to random mutations or bad luck. The Sugar Watering Can eliminates that frustration by letting you instantly finish crops that are nearly ready, locking in your rewards before RNG can interfere.
