And, ladies and gentleplants, my least favorite plant: Sorry for the long post. I got a little too satisfied writing this. 1. Plantern does Blover's job better? More like the other way around...
 * It's a better idea to just spend an extra 25 sun and get yourself a Chard Guard. Even in Pirate Seas, it's not that good. You can get better plants for 50 sun. Though I don't dislike it that much for one certain reason.
 * Very mediocre. Expensive, somewhat useless effect, and not much defense to back it up.
 * The recharge basically kills it. Sure, you can get 6 before the first aquatic zombie in most levels, but that just makes it worse, as you can get enough sun beforehand and get better plants.
 * (NOTE: This is about the first game's Blover. The second game's blover is amazing.) 100 sun for two actions that other plants do better ain't good.
 * Does not deserve its premium status. At all. Just save yourself 50 sun and get Endurian.
 * Only grabs one zombie. Also, low tides make this a risky plant to use. It wasn't that great in the first game either.
 * Gets overshadowed by four different plants.
 * SEVEN DOLLARS? SEVEN!?!? It also overshadowed my second favorite plant. And it rarely targets Gargs, making its tremendous damage pointless.
 * There are three things that happen when you use this plant: 1. Zombie dies near the right, and he zombies eat the new spawn, 2. zombie dies while eating another plant, preventing the spawn, and 3. another plant kills the zombie before the Spore-shroom can.
 * Weak, slow, expensive. The master of none of the PvZ universe.
 * 50 sun. Fifty. Freaking. Sun. For a whopping 25 damage on ONE zombie. Not even able to kill a conehead. The fact that it only hurts one zombie makes it completely worthless. Why not spend 50 sun and get a Squash, which kills most zombies? Or a Shadow-shroom, which causes nearly double the damage, and can hit multiple zombies? Or a Primal Potato mine, which kills almost every zombie in a 3x3 radius? You can kill or greatly damage MULTIPLE zombies with 50 sun, while this weak piece of glass can only slightly scratch one. It also takes 350 sun to kill a garg and his imp, while you can use the same amount of sun with 2 cherry bombs/Grapeshots and a blover to do the same to multiple. This plant is utterly useless and overshadowed by so many things that even Bloomerang would feel bad for it.

4. Shadow-shroom doesn't damage multiple zombies unless you spend another 50 sun to plant a Moonflower next to it. Does everybody use Blover here?? For a plant that only temporarily clears up fog, Blover is a waste of sun. I'd rather spend my sun for something more useful since sun is scarce. Especially in Survival Hard, it's also a waste of seed slot.
