In Grow a Garden, stealing fruit can be a big problem for players who want to keep what they grow.
Right now, many players are upset because people can steal without much risk.
Some say it is not fair, especially if Robux was spent.
This post shares some ideas from players about how to fix stealing in the Grow a Garden game so it feels more balanced and fair.
How to Stop Stealing in Grow a Garden
1. Keep stuff inside your plot zone
Anything you place inside your own garden plot is way safer than stuff left out in the open.
Most items dropped inside your zone aren’t interactable by others, especially if you have fenced it well or placed objects tightly.
If you drop something just outside your area, other players can run by and swipe it fast.
Always double-check you are in your zone before placing rare items.
2. Avoid dropping items randomly
If you’re in a rush or rearranging things and drop an item, it becomes fair game.
People camp around active players just waiting to grab dropped objects.
If you are done with something, either sell it or store it.
Don’t use the drop function unless you’re somewhere safe and alone.
If you lag and drop something by mistake, there is a high chance someone will grab it before you reconnect.
3. Use the quick-move tool
Dragging stuff by hand is risky.
It can bug out, lag, or get stuck in a weird spot where others can grab it.
The quick-move tool or hotkey lets you snap items directly into place; faster and more accurate.
That way, you avoid placing things halfway out of bounds or near the public walkway where it’s easier to lose them.
4. Play on a private server
If you’re grinding for rare stuff or doing long sessions where you leave your garden full, playing in a public server is risky.
Someone might join, see your plot loaded with high-value items, and camp you.
Use a private server (free or paid) to farm in peace.
You won’t have to worry about thieves or trolls when you are alone or just with friends.
5. Play with trusted friends only
Random public lobbies can get wild.
Even if someone seems chill at first, they might snatch your stuff later; especially when your back is turned or you are busy.
If you are playing co-op or just want to build peacefully, invite friends you actually trust.
Coordinate builds, share space, and protect each other’s items.
You can even rotate guarding if you are all farming something valuable.
Conclusion
Stealing in Grow a Garden can feel unfair, but players have given clear and simple ideas to fix it.
Changing steal to copy or raising the success rate could make everyone happier.
Hopefully, the game creators listen and make changes that work for everyone.
