Strategies[]

Play it like how you would normally play any Roof levels by using lobber plants. Switch in Cabbage-pults for Melon-pults and upgrade Melon-pults to Winter Melons when there is enough sun available. It is necessary to use Sunflowers and Flower Pots, and as the game progresses further, try to get Twin Sunflowers. It is good to have Tall-nuts to protect your plants, and Pumpkins to protect them from ambush zombies. Bungee Zombies and Catapult Zombies may appear, so use Umbrella Leaves to deflect them, but since they only appear in huge waves, you could use Jalapenos, Cherry Bombs or Doom-shrooms against Bungee Zombies or Ice-shrooms with Coffee Beans to freeze them and other instant kills against catapults. If you have Imitater, use it to quickly place more Tall-nuts and/or Pumpkins.

Jackninja5's Strategy[]

Wave 1[]

Choose:

The first flag is different from the other flags. Use only one column of Sunflowers and plant Cabbage-pults and Kernel-pults instead of Peashooters and Snow Peas. The first zombie gets a "SPUDOW!!" from a Potato Mine. Plant Flower Pots on the lawn where you would plant other plants. Plant Umbrella Leaves on a few tiles. It is so hard to explain with writing, so here is a diagram:

FPS FPC FPU FPK
FPS FPU FPC FPK
FPS FPC FPU FPK
FPS FPU FPC FPK
FPS FPC FPU FPK

  • FP = Flower Pot
  • S = Sunflower
  • C = Cabbage-pult
  • K = Kernel-pult
  • U = Umbrella Leaf

You possibly won't be able to plant much Umbrella Leaves in this flag so use lots of instant kills. So I have my setup like this:

FPS FPC FP FPK
FPS FPU FPC FPK
FPS FPC FP FPK
FPS FPU FPC FPK
FPS FPC FP FPK

Wave 2[]

Balloon Zombies and Pogo Zombies arrive.

Plant:

Twin Sunflowers have what happened to them before. Keep the Umbrella Leaves going and get rid of the Balloon and Pogo Zombies. My diagram is this:

FPTS FPC FPU FPK FP
FPTS FPU FPC FPK
FPS FPC FPU FPK FP
FPS FPU FPC FPK FP
FPS FPC FPU FPK FP

  • TS = Twin Sunflower

Wave 3[]

Choose:

Twin Sunflowers should be completed by this flag. Plant Tall-nuts and Wall-nuts on empty Flower Pots. Plant Melon-pults to replace Cabbage-pults. Keep the Winter Melons up.

Diagram:
FPTS FPM FPU FPK FPTN
FPTS FPU FPC FPK FPTN
FPTS FPM FPU FPK FPWN
FPTS FPU FPM FPK FPWN
FPTS FPWM FPU FPK FPTN

  • WN = Wall-nut
  • M = Melon-pult
  • TN = Tall-nut
  • WM = Winter Melon

Wave 4[]

Choose:

Melon-pults make this easy. Winter Melons and Tall-nuts should still be there.

Wave 5[]

Choose these plants and you will be done with the easy Survival Modes:

Winter Melons will be complete and Tall-nuts should be protected. Blovers can get rid of the Balloon Zombies.
