Killing Zombies (sometimes coins, diamonds, chocolate, or Zen Garden plants may drop), and killing a Zombie Yeti will drop five diamonds (four on later encounters).
Leftover Lawn Mowers, Roof Cleaners, and Pool Cleaners (they turn into gold coins after each level and are automatically collected)
Marigolds (they drop coins and occasionally diamonds at intervals)
Completing Levels (when Mini-games, Puzzle Mode levels, and Survival Mode levels are completed, a money bag or trophy is dropped; clicking on it will cause gold coins or diamonds to be automatically collected)
Eating Brains in I, Zombie (coins, diamonds, presents, or chocolate may drop)
Every few levels in Vasebreaker Endless (the last vase will drop a money bag)
Completing Adventure Mode levels after beating them for the first time (the last zombie will drop a money bag with 5 gold coins in it)
From Zen Garden plants (Zen Garden plants drop money after being watered or fertilized, as well as after the Phonograph or Bug Spray is used on them. After the Phonograph or Bug Spray has been used, they also drop occasional coins in a manner similar to Marigolds.)
Destroying a Grave with a Grave Buster (coins, diamonds, presents, or chocolate may drop)
Selling Zen Garden plants (directly adds a certain amount of money to the bank balance; this amount depends on the type of plant and its maturity)
Note:Gold Magnets do not drop money, but only collect it.
Money is used to buy items from Crazy Dave’s Twiddydinkies. Before the shop is unlocked, it can be used to purchase seed slot upgrades directly from Crazy Dave, though you can only have up to 8 slots before the shop is unlocked after level 3-4. In most cases, money will drop under certain conditions, and the player must click on it, move the cursor over it or have a Gold Magnet collect it to obtain it, although it will sometimes be automatically added to the bank. (The player can’t have more than $99999.00; once that amount is reached all money collected won’t affect your total). Through cheating it is possible to get $999,999 and above. However, in certain GOTY versions, you can’t get above $99,990.
You’d think Torchwoods would douse snow peas. And you’d be correct, because you, my friend, are one smart cookie.
Those hateful Zombotany zombies! Who do they think they are, shooting at your plants? It’s a good thing Wall-nuts stop ‘em cold.
The Pogo Party and Bobsled Bonanza mini-games are really, really, really difficult. Wanna drop one of those ‘reallys’ off that description? Use the Squash.
Just when you thought jalapenos couldn’t be any more useful, a Tree of Wisdom lets you know that they also destroy the Zomboni’s ice trails! Bam!
Once you buy the Imitater, try clicking the little drawing in the upper left corner of your Almanac to access the entry on that sucker.
I hear that typing ‘mustache’ brings about a terrifying transformation in the undead!
Please do not tap on the glass! Or actually, go ahead, right-click on your Aquarium Garden or during Zombiquarium to deafen your underwater creatures.
When I was just an acorn my grampa told me, ‘Son, Vasebreaker puzzles are much easier if you break the vases on the right side first.’
Dancers in I, Zombie may seem expensive, but in the right situation they’re worth every penny.
I had a dream. In it, cattail spikes popped balloons and dropped zombies to the ground. I don’t know what it means.
When facing the final boss in the game, he will launch massive fire balls and ice balls at your plants. They crush everything in their path except zombies (basically, all plants in that row), but there is a way to stop them!
To destroy the ice ball, you must use a Chili Pepper in that row. To destroy the fire ball, you must use an Ice Shroom. And the good part is that you don’t need a coffee bean to wake it! The Ice Shroom will work fine without it!
A quick guide on how to ~10 minutes make 8-10k gold depending on your luck. I like this strategy because it only requires 9 seed slots instead of 10 and only 2 of the seeds from the shop the Gloom Shroom and the Gold Magnet. For those who doubt the Gold Magnet I have tried this without it and it just took way too much clicking.
Playing Plants Vs. Zombies with all the codes activated on survival hard 1 round.
I was just playing around so that you can see what all the cheats look like. I am pretty bored with this game now as the only thing I could do is to try and get all of the different types of plants for the zen garden. I sold all of the duplicate plants that I had and I think that I have about half of the different types of plants in the garden at the moment.
My tree of wisdom is 1000 feet tall and I have no desire to grow it any higher.
