Defeat a normal Roof level without using any catapult plants

Note: This achievement is equivalent to the Nintendo DS version achievement "Unsiege Mentality".

Strategy

The best way to get it is on Level 5-1, on Quick Play. To get it, you should pick the following (Up to 8 slots). And its a good idea to have purchased the roof cleaners.

• Sunflower
• Flower Pot
• Coffee Bean
• Peashooter or Repeater
• Fume-shroom (with Gloom-shroom)
• Umbrella Leaf
• Garlic
• Chomper

A garden rake is strongly recommended.

As the achievement states, you can't use catapult plants (Cabbage-pults, Kernel-pults, or Melon-pults, let alone Cob Cannons and Winter Melons). If you have one of them, you can't achieve this. It's not very different from any other level, so it can be easy. Start building your Sunflowers first and then you'll see a Zombie. He will step on the rake and will die. Another one will come, so use a Peashooter to shoot him down. Put 4 Umbrella Leaves to defend your Sunflowers away from the bungees and later, when you have a lot of Sun, use the Gloom-shroom and Garlic, because the Gloom-shroom is technically cheaper than a Threepeater. Then, replace the 5 Peashooters with Sunflowers. Then, when a Garlic is damaged, since it can't be repaired by the Wall-nut First Aid, use your shovel and then replace them, or let them finally get eaten, but if a Flower Pot gets eaten with 1 bite after a Garlic gets eaten, put a Flower Pot on a space where a zombie ate it, but don't be too late.

Note: This Achievement can't be earned by completing Level 5-5 (Roof) as it is a bonus level in which no achievements can be earned.
