Grow A Garden on Roblox is a relaxing sandbox farming game where you can cultivate plants, design your garden, and connect with fellow players. By default, Roblox places you in a freshly created server. While there's no direct method to join an older server, several effective workarounds have been successfully used by the community. Explore them below!
Why Join an Older Server in Grow a Garden?
Before we explain how to join an older server, let's consider the benefits. Grow a Garden is a popular Roblox farming simulator where you grow crops, collect seeds, and enhance your garden over time. Success often depends on securing new seeds and unlocking farming plots quickly. Joining an older server can significantly improve your experience. These servers typically have fewer players, replenished seed shops, and opportunities to find rare or restocked items. Key advantages include:
Seed Shop Availability – Older servers with lower player activity often have fully stocked seed shops, allowing for faster progress than on crowded servers.Reduced Competition – Since the game rewards timing and efficiency, joining a less populated server can give you a significant advantage.Lower Lag – With fewer players on the server, you'll experience smoother gameplay and less delay.Repeating Events – Older servers sometimes retain special events or glitches, including chances for seed duplication after restocks.

How to Join Older Servers in Grow A Garden
Manual Server Browsing
A straightforward way to find an older server is by using Roblox's server list:
Navigate to the Grow A Garden game page.Scroll down to the "Servers" section.Repeatedly click "Load More Servers."Search for servers with very few players or a long runtime.
An older server might be almost empty if players left after an update. Joining servers with very low player counts (1-5 players) increases your chance of finding one that hasn't reset. This method involves some trial and error but is particularly effective right after an update when some servers are still running the previous version.
Using Roblox Browser Extensions
Browser extensions like RoPro, BTRoblox, or Roblox+ provide advanced server filtering. These tools let you sort servers by player count, ping, and activity level. Target servers with 0 or 1 players, as they are less likely to have restarted. Some extensions also show the last refresh time, making it easier to identify older servers.
