Level 4-1 is the forty-first level in Plants vs. Zombies, Plants vs. Zombies: Journey to the West, and Plants vs. Zombies: Great Wall Edition, and it is the first Fog level. It is a regular level. When this level is finished for the first time, the player obtains the Plantern.

Difficulty

The fog covers the three rightmost columns on this level, leaving only six columns clearly visible for the player.
Jack-in-the-Box Zombies may explode and destroy some plants.
A few zombies will still pop out in random spots in the middle of the pool during the final wave. However, this can be prevented by planting an Ice-shroom right before it occurs.

Strategies

Required plants:
- Puff-shroom
- Sun-shroom
- Sea-shroom
- Peashooter
- Wall-nut
- Squash
- Lily Pad
- Tangle Kelp (if you have eight seed slots)
- Fume-shroom (if you have nine seed slots)
Do not worry about the fog, because it will only matter in later levels. Start out with planting Sun-shrooms and Puff-shrooms on the left side of the lawn with the occasional Sea-shroom when it recharges.
Do not waste time in planting Sea-shrooms. Plant them as soon as they recharge.
When you have enough sun, plant Peashooters on the leftmost columns without digging up Sun-shrooms (digging up Puff-shrooms are okay because they are free).
Use instant-kills when the zombies start getting too close to your house.
If the fog is too much of a problem, the player can plant Torchwoods to clear out some of the fog.
