Fast Sun Production During Early Game

Getting more suns early in the game is undoubtedly one of the best way to win the game easily. That is why it is advisable for everyone to at least plant two columns of Sunflowers or Sun-shrooms to produce more suns, especially those plants that need to be upgraded.

Unlike, night time there are no free stuff like Puff-shroom that can be used as an early defense during the day, so it is necessary for you to plant either of the not so tough but very cheap offensive plants like the Peashooter, Cabbage-pult and Kernel-pult. Usually, during the day, you can plant at least three Sunflowers before the very first enemy strikes and before he gets too close to your house you have to eliminate him.

When I first played the game I usually plant a Peashooter on every lane but I found out that you cannot plant Sunflowers fast enough by spending much on your defense. What I did was I planted a Potato Mine on a lane where a zombie is heading. This provide you more suns to plant Sunflowers while holding off the zombies from passing through. Aside from that, you are spending less with just 25 points (equivalent to 1 sun produced by Sunflower) for every Potato Mine.



1) The first enemy to strike.
2) Plant a Potato Mine on the lane as fast as possible to trigger its detonating device before the enemy gets any closer.
3) The sooner you plant the Potato Mine the better. The icon above your screen shows the duration of time when you can start planting another one.



1) Good thing Potato Mine does not take so long to recharge.
2) The second zombie is approaching.
3) If you have an upgraded Twin Sunflower, you can plant it as early as the second zombie shows himself.
4) From the time you planted your first Potato Mine, the number of Sunflowers that you can plant may already have doubled.



1) As much as 625 suns or even more may have been stored in your vault when the third and fourth zombies appeared.
2) As early as the third zombie appeared you may already upgraded 2 Sunflowers into Twin Sunflowers.
3) These Conehead Zombies are tough indeed. Their traffic cone helmet made them twice tougher than the normal ones. Good thing a Potato Mine can turn these guys into ashes in one blast. Planting a Peashooter at this short distance may only ends up a meal for these gluttons.

Within a very short time, probably when the third and fourth zombie appeared, you may already have two columns of Sunflowers in your lawn and huge amount of suns stored. After you have a stable number of Sunflowers to support the sun requirements for planting, then you can proceed on designing your lawn as you want it to be.
