- @Perfume-shroom92 I was doing this as a test run to see if Piglet could get Pokra. But if Big Pig had this much trouble, I'm not sure I should invest my time. I mean Big Pig is level 9 - 13 and Piglet is a 3 - 5. I've got some extra fuel so I'll try Big Pig again tomorrow and see if I can find a strat that might work for weaker plants too.
- @linuxPigPen The trick is to have the plant food perk and kept on using blover+ reinforce mint with BB and the occasional appease mint... but fact is blover really needs to be constantly on to blow away all those 'little annoying robots' that keeps dropping down (and i keep forgetting...)
@linuxPigPenThe recent change in PP makes it much harder for low level plants to play the spicy (3 chilies) levels.
I have tried a few times with my level 1 plants but so far without joy,
Now the good news is that if you are after Pokra seeds, there will be a Pokra tournament next week so I guess this would be a much easier option.

Try Appease-mint, Blover, R-mint, Bowling Bulb, Shine Vine, Enlighten-mint. I start with 3 BB and use the rest of the sun for SV. Also, wait ~20sec before you hit Let's Rock to get the burst of sun immediately. Plant Food is used to refresh R-mint and excessive PF is used on yellow tiles when they appear. Plant Appease-mint when ever it is recharged and don't forget to spam Blover 😉 Perk: Plant Food Perk - Level 2.
I usually have ~20-30sec to spare with level 1 plants.
You should post that on reddit.

With medium difficulty, I get to win but often only with 1 or two gems, a little more coins than easy setting but I prefer gems.
With hard difficulty, I either get 0 gems or overwhelmed with bug bot imps.
No! NO! I was so close to win! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
You have enough gems to hire the sherrif
Have they nerfed the plants in PP? I was playing I think #8 last night with the Citrons and the LB and I couldn't kill anything! Even a Citron with plant food wouldn't take out one of those nibbler machines. Big Pig has good Modern Day plamts. This should have been a cakewalk.
I've been using peanut, 2x power lily, reinforcemint and blover.
This works well on max difficulty, I think the zombies are tougher.
- @linuxPigPen They have increased the zombies difficulty in Penny's this time..... I hate it...even on easy, citron's plant food can't take out the machines in one go...it takes about 2 plant food effect which i thought is just plain ridiculous....
Probably a boring strat, but I kept using Bass Blast perk + Blover or Reinforcemint + Blover in almost every level without locked plants/belt.
I also used Imp Pear's PFE and took advantage of the power tiles (also brought Power Lily just in case) to significantly reduce the zombies' health so that my Pokra can easily defeat them.
Imp Pear is also useful in the don't spend suns level, and can kill a zombie by putting two IPs in front of them, especially in the beginning while preparing your defense.
In the case of locked plants or conveyor belts, duh, I just played Endless first to collect power ups, lol. Thankfully my plants levels are high enough to be able to beat locked plants/belt level without having to use power ups. That, except level 17 aka the legendary Magnifying Grass level, where I just spammed power toss.
- @ForestOutlook Even with my maxed level MG it took like 6-7 taps just to kill an imp in 3 chilly,which is too ridiculous...
Dang, that's one buff Imp. I regretted that I actually care about preparing the (boosted) twin suns and the sunflos to hoard some suns. I ended up being too busy spam-tapping MG to kill one cone zombie, while the suns are spreading uncollected. Felt too hard even for 3 chillies. I lost count how many times I had to tap the MG to kill one bucket zombie (if I managed to kill him at all, before resorting to power toss).
The devs seem to have gone too far this time. It looks like the devs are still experimenting (if not confused about) Penny's difficulty.
After the discussion about level 17, I decided to give it a try with level 1 plants 😛 https://streamable.com/hyr840
Haha, that's so cool.
I might've been allergic to MG first that I'd rather not stay too long in that level 🤣
Stand corrected, I guess I'm giving kudos to the devs this time, heh.
- @PowerToss I think it took like 10 shots for a M121 MG to kill the conehead machine :/
I will bear this level in mind and then curse my way through it..... :/
Thank you Penny.
9 gems dropped!
I thought I counted it wrong until I double checked the amount of gem increased.
Don't ask me how I did it because I do not have the faintest idea how this happened, all I remember is this was played on the spicy (medium difficulty) zomboss level.
I'm still going to ask you how just because 😅
Or at least, what plants did you use (are they high level/mid/low level plants)?
How many gems do you usually get with the same plants and in the same level difficulty?
Maybe we can analyse from there somehow, haha.
I'm getting 4-5 gems on Spicy 3 with PowerToss strategy (SV, BB, Reinforce-mint, Blover and CG and I use the PF perk)
First time that I maxxed out Penny Perks
Apparantly the Extra Objectives dissappear from the levels
What has @eieio_31310 in it's pocketses, we want our Precious (gems) ...
@ForestOutlook I select the plant food perk so there is constant supplies of PF to shower Zomboss with peas.
Over-achievements? 👿
