How Pet Abilities Stack for Greater Gains
According to the official Grow a Garden Discord, pet abilities can stack. This means that having multiple pets with similar traits amplifies their benefits. For example, several Polar Bears can increase the odds of spawning Chilled or Frozen fruits, while combining pets like Owl, Night Owl, and Blood Owl significantly boosts experience points for all active pets. Unlocking up to eight pet slots allows players to mix and match pets to suit their farming goals, maximizing efficiency and rewards.
