Grow a Garden is an electric Roblox title that’s taking the gaming world by storm. It’s a simple premise that yields hours of entertainment, allowing players to build, customise, and cultivate a sizeable garden with a range of plants. It’s a massively popular title, and in this guide, I’m going to teach you how to open crates in Grow a Garden to get the most out of the game.
In a recent update, the Grow a Garden team introduced a series of cosmetics-based crates that players can purchase from a new vendor. That’s all well and good, but once you’ve purchased them, how do you open crates in Grow a Garden?
Let’s find out.
Everything You Need to Know About Crates in Grow a Garden
Let’s dive into everything you need to know to get the most out of cosmetic crates in Grow a Garden in Roblox.
Where to Buy Crates in Grow a Garden
The latest Grow a Garden update introduced a new trader named Sam, who can be found between the Gear and Pet Eggs stores. It’s from Sam that you’ll purchase the new cosmetic crates and unlock items to customise signposts, gnomes, and more.
Are Crates Free in Grow a Garden?
Crates aren’t free, and you’ll need to pay for the lower-tier crates with Sheckles, the in-game currency. The more exotic and rarer cosmetics crates can only be purchased with Robux, which means they cost real-world money.
The most expensive crates will set you back a pretty penny, too. It looks like the best crates in Grow a Garden can cost millions of Sheckles. It’s also worth stressing that crates have a 10-hour cooldown in Sam’s store.

Can You Buy Cosmetics in Grow a Garden?
You can buy cosmetics directly from the shop in Grow a Garden, but they boast some staggering price tags.
