How are these better than Winter Melon in ANY way? Powered Dusk Lobber is much more effective than Winter Melon and costs way less sun.

Cabbage-Pult is actually good, because it's the first lobber-type plant you get, so let's not judge it too much.

And Kernel-Pult is really useful for stalling zombies, even more so when coupled with Iceberg Lettuce that was plant fed.

Yes, Winter Melon does more damage than any of those and slows zombies down, but the problems are: 1. It's WAY too expensive for any real viable use, unless you have a truckload of sun. Out of the first one, leaks out the second problem: All the aforementioned plants cost less. Even with Dusk Lobber strength, it cannot slow down zombies and it's still not as strong as Winter Melon. Not to mention the fact that it has Mediocre recharge and needs to be combined with Moonflower (which also has Mediocre recharge).

You said it yourself. Cabbage-pult and Kernel-pult are in no way better than Winter Melon. I agree that they are useful in the beginning, but comparing a 500 Sun plant to a 100 Sun one makes no sense.

Again, if you take Sun-shroom or Primal Sunflower, it won't take too much to get a lot of Sun, as long as you keep using early killers (like Potato Mine). The part with Cabbage-pult and Kernel pult is a joke. Actually let me help you rephrase that: That whole sentence of yours where you said that there other lobbed plants that can replace Winter Melon is a joke in itself. A really bad attempt at creating a joke worth laughing for.
