Talk:Big Wave Beach - Day 28/@comment-26165760-20150303184041

I tried a very different approach. First, double sunflowers on the second, dry-land column and snapdragons on the lily pads. The snapdragons get normal zombies and doubled up they also get coneheads. Then, fill in banana launchers on the back column and put Tall-Nuts on lily pads in column 5. That makes Snorkel Zombie come up so the snapdragons can get him. Whenever a fisherman or Octo Zombie appears, hit him with a banana; there should always be enough active banana launchers to do this if you have five. Fill in gaps in columns 3 and 4 with Winter Melons.

I did this and didn't have to use any Plant Food until the final wave, at which point I just plant fooded four banana launchers and won.

A KEY OBSERVATION: Planting a Tall-Nut over an injured Tall-Nut does NOT count as losing a plant for purposes of this level. Once I worked that out it went from very hard to merely hard.
