Looking to get and sell Frostspike seed in Grow a Garden? You’re in good company. This legendary rarity crop has captured widespread player interest since its introduction, leaving many wondering about acquisition methods and trading potential.
If you’ve been following the updates in Grow a Garden, you may have heard rumors about a mysterious plant called Frostspike. It’s a crop of legendary status that’s tied to a rare “Frozen Ice King” weather event. Below is everything you need to know about how Frostspike works, how to (possibly) get it, and whether you can trade or “sell” it in-game.
What is Frostspike?
- Frostspike is a limited, Legendary, multi-harvest crop in Grow a Garden.
- It belongs to the “woody, Stalky, Prickly” crop categories.
- Statistically, its floor (minimum) crop value is reported around 40,612 sheckles, while average value is near 45,000 (though some sources suggest slightly adjusted ranges).
- Its weight metrics vary across sources — one site lists min 2.80 kg, average 4 kg, with a “huge” chance (i.e. chance for oversized yield) around 0.40%
- However: Frostspike is not yet broadly available in normal gameplay. It is typically classified as unobtainable via regular methods, only through special admin or event conditions.
So in short: it’s a high-rarity and limited crop, more for collection than for steady farming use — at least until further updates open more access.
How to Get Frostspike?
Because Frostspike isn’t part of the regular seed shop or drop pools, you’ll need to rely on special event mechanics (often controlled by game administrators). The core method revolves around the Frozen Ice King or “Awaken the Ice King” weather event.
Here’s a step-by-step of what the community currently understands:
- Trigger the Ice King event
The “Frozen Ice King” weather is not a standard weather that appears naturally — it is typically activated in admin events. - Platforms appear behind the Event Hub
When the event begins, five sacrifice platforms will appear behind the Event Hub on the map. - Sacrifice rare crops
Players must place (sacrifice) very high-tier crops onto each of the five platforms. These crops usually need to be divine, prismatic, or transcendent rarity — examples include Mushroom, Burning Bud, or Bone Blossom. - Blessing from the Ice King
Once all five platforms are satisfied (i.e., all have the required rare crops), a message appears: because the players have “unfrozen” or “awakened” the Ice King, he will bless the players. The reward for that blessing is the Frostspike seed (or possibly one seed) distributed to the participants.
Because this method depends on admin-controlled events, many players cannot access it at will. If your server or session doesn’t have the Ice King event active, the method won’t work.
Is Frostspike Worth It?
- Rarity & collectibility: Since Frostspike is so limited and admin/event-only, many players treat it more as a prestige or collector’s item than a consistent profit crop.
- Monetary yield: If you succeed in obtaining it, selling its harvest yields decent sheckles per cycle (40K+). But because it’s not multi-harvestable indefinitely (or its availability is constrained), you can’t build a business around it yet.
- Future potential: With future updates, the developers may enable wider methods to obtain Frostspike — e.g. via a special drop, quest, or event reward — which could increase its trade value.
Long story short: if you get one, sell or keep it as a collector’s trophy. But don’t rely on it for long-term garden income yet.
How to Sell Frostspike (When Possible)?
Once you have a harvested Frostspike crop (or multiple):
- Use the regular in-game sale interface like other crops, converting yield to sheckles.
- Because Frostspike is high value, it will stand out in your sales logs — check for “huge” yield variants if they trigger.
- If trading between players is allowed (or via community marketplaces), its rarity means many collectors may pay a premium (if the server rules allow that).
- Always check game rules: some servers or modes may restrict the selling or external trading of admin event items.
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Rarity | Legendary, limited, admin/event only |
| Value (floor/avg) | ~ 40,612 to 45,000 sheckles (some sources slightly vary) |
| Method to get | Admin Ice King event → sacrifice five divine+ crops on platforms |
| Availability | Not obtainable via normal gameplay currently |
| Sellability | Sell via crop interface; high value; potentially tradeable if server allows |
While Frostspike remains an elusive prize for the moment, being informed about how to get it (when the event is active) and how to value/sell it gives you an edge. If the devs open access in future updates, having this knowledge lets you act fast.
