If you have Torchwood, you don'T need firepeashooter anytime soon, if not, erm, fire peashooter is spesificly good for frostbite caves, its not that important for anywhere else. I have no idea what Lava Guava does in all honesty, I'm not into code hacks and spoilers but I easily tell how good Hurrikale is. It's very useful and it can save you in many situations, anywhere, so if I were you, I'd first buy that.

Sweet Potato is THE worst extra plant (by this I mean premium and Gemium), very likely the worst plant in the game, and is going towards worst in the SERIES (though Sea-shroom, Cactus, and... uh, my mind went blank, oh wait, ).

Reasons:
 * 1) 300 sun for the health of a Wall-nut. Worse, it loses health even faster since there are more zombies coming to her.
 * 2) Plant Food effect is useless.
 * 3) Range is horrible.
 * 4) You can't do the "plant behind a zombie and watch him eat it" trick. You can with Wall-nut, Tall-nut, and even the smaller Pea-nut.
 * 5) Does not regenerate health.
 * 6) Recharge is deplorable.

There were only two reasons I even got it:
 * 1) I thought the range would be better.
 * 2) I can create a "Pirate Seas" effect in Far Future and Big Wave Beach, although other worlds don't work very well. This allows for 15 Twin Sunflowers which EASILY repay the 600 sun spent to create the setup. And let's face it, I already use over 4000 sun on offense! However, they get useless after a while. The Winter Melons overkill the zombies.
