Garden In! Achievement Guide – Unlock Every Trophy

Garden In! invites players to nurture a vibrant indoor garden filled with unique plants and hybrid creations. Achieving 100% completion means not just growing every species, but mastering the game’s mechanics from customization to research. These in-game accolades mark your progress and encourage exploration of every feature, making each unlocked achievement a satisfying milestone in your botanical journey.

Careful planning and keeping your garden organized greatly improve your experience as you chase every trophy.

Early Game Achievements

These achievements typically come naturally as you familiarize yourself with the basics of gardening and crafting in Garden In!. Simple interactions like changing room colors or watering plants are often enough to unlock them fairly early without needing special effort.

Time for Renovations

Time for Renovations

Changing your room’s color palette is one of the first ways to personalize your space—and one of the first achievements you’ll earn.

Head into the room customization menu by selecting the paint palette icon, pick any available color scheme you like, and confirm your choice. The achievement unlocks instantly upon making any change, so no need to worry about finding the ‘right’ color.

Tip: Opt for your favorite colors here—this unlock won’t restrict your aesthetic choices.

Taking Notes

Taking Notes

The Herbarium is your garden’s record keeper, tracking every plant you encounter and grow.

Simply open the brown book marked HERBARIUM in the game’s user interface. Unlocking it for the first time will grant you this achievement immediately.

If it doesn’t trigger right away, try closing and reopening the menu after progressing a little further in your playthrough.

The Mendel Experiment

Hybridization is central to Garden In!’s gameplay, and placing seeds into a Hybridization Vase kicks off this mechanic and its related achievement.

Once you have a Hybridization Vase, insert any two compatible seeds into it. The achievement pops up as soon as both seeds are planted—you don’t need to wait for the hybrid to grow.

Dry No More

Dry No More

Plants inevitably dry out if neglected, but watering a parched plant grants this achievement.

Let one of your plants get visibly dry, then water it normally. This immediate action triggers the achievement as soon as the plant receives water again.

Who’s a Good Plant?

Occasionally, your plants will crave attention, indicated by a floating heart icon above them.

When you see this, simply interact with the plant by petting it to unlock the achievement.

Note: It’s easier to complete this achievement separately from the dry plant one to stay organized.

#NewFilter

Research eventually unlocks camera filters, which you can apply to your room view for visual flair.

Once you accumulate 400 Research Points, you’ll be able to unlock your first filter and earn this achievement.

Unlocking 10 different seed types through ongoing research marks a meaningful milestone in your gardening journey.

There’s no need to rush; simply keep researching and growing your collection until you hit 10 seed varieties for the achievement.

If you are always doing research, then there is no need to grind specifically for it.

Mid-Game Achievements

Mid-Game Achievements

Lab-Room

Once the Laboratory (Greenhouse) is unlocked, placing a total of 10 Hybridization Vases there secures this achievement.

You can either craft or buy new Hybridization Vases directly inside the Laboratory or move existing vases from other rooms to count toward this total.

• Craft or buy new Hybridization Vases directly in the Laboratory.
• Move existing vases from other rooms.

Both methods count toward the achievement.

The Best One

Fill one room with 30 copies of the same plant to earn this achievement.

This can be 30 single-pot plants or 15 hybrid pots since hybrid pots count as two plants apiece.

You can complete this in two different ways:

• Place 30 fully grown single-pot plants, or
• Place 15 fully grown hybrid pots, since each hybrid pot contains two plants.

The achievement unlocks as soon as the room contains enough identical plants.

The achievement triggers as soon as the threshold is met.

Fast Strategy

Cloning a plant you already have simplifies this challenge. Don’t stress about rare species—just replicate whichever plant you can in volume.

Landlord

Unlock every room the game offers by progressing through research and spending resources as new areas become available.

This achievement simply requires patience and steady advancement; no shortcuts needed.

There’s no trick here, just keep doing research and spend your resources as soon as you unlock new areas.

Once the final room is unlocked, the achievement will appear automatically.

Mid-Game Preparation Tips

Mid-game is a prime window to get your garden organized and set up strategies that’ll save significant time later.

Keep Every Room Organized

Keep Every Room Organized

Assign each room a clear, specific purpose instead of cluttering spaces with mixed plants and items.

A practical setup is:

• Main Room: Hub for research and daily tasks.
• Laboratory: Dedicated hybrid breeding area.
• Balcony: Area for trying out newly discovered species.
• Garden: Large-scale farming spot tailored for quantity achievements.

Maintaining this order helps you track which achievements and tasks you’re working on more easily.

Never Leave Research Idle

Never Leave Research Idle

Research underpins almost every advancement in Garden In!. To keep momentum, start a new project as soon as another completes.

Regular research yields:

• New seeds and plant types
• Unique flower pots
• Camera filters
• Additional rooms
• New plant categories

• New seeds
• New flower pots
• Camera filters
• Additional rooms
• Plant categories

Maintaining research fills gaps in your collection and opens more gardening possibilities smoothly.

Continue Unlocking New Hybrids

Continue Unlocking New Hybrids

Variety is key to achievements that require completing the entire plant collection, so don’t stick with favorites for too long.

Experiment with new hybrid combinations and grow different species to keep your garden diverse and progress briskly.

Save Space for Collection Achievements

Save Space for Collection Achievements

Later achievements demand lots of space and plant variety: dozens of plants in a room, hundreds cared-for, and a large species collection.

Don’t overcrowd your rooms with decorations. Leaving open space early on makes meeting these size-based challenges much more manageable.

If you leave a bit of extra space now, those achievements will be much easier to complete later.
