Grow a Garden Kitsune Quest Guide
This guide explains how to complete the “Grow a Garden” quest for the Kitsune pet in the game Adopt Me!, covering the exact steps, required items, and time involved. You need to collect 5 specific garden items and combine them to create the Kitsune, which is a legendary pet.
Background: The Kitsune in Adopt Me!
The Kitsune is a legendary pet in Adopt Me!, inspired by the Japanese fox spirit. It was introduced as part of a limited-time event and is known for its elegant, flame-tipped tail and mystical aura. Unlike many pets that are obtained through eggs, the Kitsune was obtainable through a special quest that required players to gather garden-themed items. While the original event has ended, the quest remains a popular topic because players who missed it often ask how it worked, and some private servers or re-runs bring it back.
How the Quest Works
The “Grow a Garden” quest is a multi-step task that involves collecting specific items scattered around the game world. Here is the general flow:
- Start the quest by speaking to the NPC (non-player character) near the garden area in the main lobby.
- Collect the following 5 items: Watering Can, Garden Shovel, Seed Packet, Sunflower, and Garden Gnome.
- Each item is found in a different location, often requiring you to solve a small puzzle or interact with the environment.
- Once all items are collected, return to the NPC and combine them to receive the Kitsune.
In the original event, the items were placed in specific spots: the Watering Can was near the pond, the Shovel behind the playground, the Seed Packet in the greenhouse, the Sunflower in the flower patch, and the Gnome in the forest area. The exact locations may vary if the quest is re-released, but the item list remains the same.
Step-by-Step Walkthrough
If you are playing during a re-run or on a server that has the quest active, here is the detailed path:
- Locate the Quest Giver: Find the NPC with a garden hat near the center of the map. Interact with them to accept the quest.
- Collect the Watering Can: Head to the pond area. The watering can is usually on a bench or near the water’s edge. Click on it to pick it up.
- Find the Shovel: Go to the playground. The shovel is often stuck in a sandbox or near the slide. Click to collect.
- Get the Seed Packet: Enter the greenhouse (if available) or look near the flower beds. The seed packet is on a table or shelf.
- Pick the Sunflower: Find the sunflower patch. You may need to water it first (using the watering can you collected) to make it grow, then click to harvest.
- Grab the Gnome: Look in the forest or near the camping area. The gnome is usually under a tree or next to a tent.
- Return to the NPC: Once you have all 5 items, go back to the quest giver. A prompt will appear to combine them. Click it, and the Kitsune will be added to your inventory.
Common Problems and Solutions
Players often encounter a few issues during this quest:
- Item not spawning: If an item is missing, try rejoining the server or restarting the game. Sometimes the items take a few minutes to load.
- Can’t pick up the sunflower: Make sure you have the watering can in your inventory and use it on the sunflower first. It must be fully grown before you can harvest it.
- Quest not starting: Ensure you are in the correct game mode. The quest is only available in the normal mode, not in the creative or private server modes unless specifically enabled.
- Lost an item: If you drop an item or disconnect, it will return to its original location. You can go back and pick it up again.
Comparison: Kitsune vs. Other Legendary Pets
The Kitsune is a legendary pet, but it differs from others like the Dragon or Unicorn. While Dragons and Unicorns are hatched from eggs, the Kitsune was quest-exclusive. In terms of value, the Kitsune is generally considered slightly rarer because it was only available for a limited time. However, its stats are similar to other legendaries—it has a high friendship growth rate and can be traded. Players who prefer a unique backstory often choose the Kitsune over more common legendaries.
Cost and Time Investment
The quest itself is free—you don’t need to spend Robux or in-game currency to start it. However, you may need to travel across the map, which takes about 10-15 minutes if you know where everything is. If you’re new, it could take up to 30 minutes. There is no cost for the items; they are simply collectibles. The only potential cost is if you want to speed up the sunflower growth—some versions of the game allow you to buy a growth potion, but that’s optional.
Safety and Fair Play
Always play the quest in the official game client. Be cautious of third-party websites or players offering to “complete the quest for you”—these are often scams. Never share your account password or personal information. The quest is designed to be completed solo, so there is no need to trade items with other players. If you see a player offering to sell the Kitsune for real money, report them, as that violates the game’s terms of service.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I still do the Grow a Garden quest?
If the event is not currently active, you cannot start the quest. However, the Kitsune can be obtained through trading with other players. Keep an eye on official announcements for possible re-runs.
What if I lose an item after collecting it?
Items will respawn in their original locations after a few minutes. Simply go back to the spot and pick it up again. Your progress is saved for each item you’ve collected, so you don’t need to restart the entire quest.
Is the Kitsune worth trading for?
Yes, the Kitsune is a sought-after legendary pet. Its value is comparable to other legendaries like the Dragon. If you have a spare, you can trade it for a good offer, but be aware of its rarity due to the limited-time quest.
Can I get multiple Kitsunes from this quest?
No, the quest can only be completed once per account. If you want multiple, you’ll need to trade or wait for a possible re-run where the quest might be repeatable (though that hasn’t been confirmed).
Do I need to be a certain level to start the quest?
No, the quest is available to all players regardless of level. Just make sure you have enough inventory space to hold the items.
What happens if I trade my Kitsune?
Once traded, you cannot get it back unless you trade for it again. The quest is one-time, so think carefully before trading away your Kitsune.
