Grave Busters are important in Whack a Zombie and later nighttime levels. It is very hard to beat Whack a Zombie without Grave Busters. Ice Shroom may work but only for 3 seconds. In later nighttime levels, graves can be at the fifth row from your right. That is very dangerously close to your defences and sometimes you won't even have space to plant a single puff shroom in that row! (unless it is very far back) if a Buckethead pops up there, you are definately losing unless you have pumpkined one of your back attackers or you use a instant. If you leave itt to the Lawn Mower, you will get 50 less money in the end, but I think you don't care. Marigolds and Gold Magnets are needed for a 100% successful gold farm.You need probably every upgrade plant (except for the Gold Magnet) for Survival Endless and it is hard to get enough money to buy everything (Wallnut First Aid and Garden Rake is nessassary, You won't win without upgrades, and you will probably want to grow your Wisdom Tree, fill your zen Garden, make the Garden plants happy, and buy the Mushroom garden and the water garden for your Zen Garden. Unless you don't like survival and Zen Garden, you will need lots of in game money (If you don't like survival and Zen Garden, I'm surprised that you even bought the game) and spend time Gold Farming unless you cheat. Kernel Pult is actually better than the Cabbage Pult. While it does 2x less damage, the buttering it does may be the difference that you survive many gargantuars or you get your brains eaten. It requires luck, so it may not be always good, but you should have paired it with a Repeater/Gatling or a Melon/WinterPult which can take care of the zombies while it is firing the weak ammo. It also means you won't get Cob Cannon (you need the Kernal to upgrade), and the Cob Cannon is probably nessasary in survival. Generally, if you hate these plants, it makes the game very hard and you will not be able to get much success in Survival Endless.
