Useful Tactics:
--------------- 
-=World 1=-
This area is very easy, and is mainly just a tutorial to the game, Use whatever
plants you have, this early in the game. But make sure you have peashooters and
sunflowers.

-=World 2=-
Now this is when it gets a bit harder, the sun no longer falls from the sky, 
what I did was i used puff shrooms (the free mushrooms you get) and sun shrooms,
then when I got that set up I would start setting up peashooters and repeaters. 
And at the end of the level, zombies spawn from the graves, so try to take them 
out early in the level (P.S. The graves give some good stuff, crystals, plants, 
and sun)

-=World 3=-
Ok you made it this far, now we are dealing with a completely different kind of
strategy, what I did was I got lilipads, cattails (cattails are VERY strong, 
they can attack any lane, and they shoot two spikes at a time) I also had wall-
nuts, cherry bombs (for emergencies) peashooters and repeaters. You want to make
each lane equally strong. And make sure you buy the pool cleaners, they help a 
lot.

-=World 4=-
Ahh world 4, the hardest world in my opinion, basically its world 3 but you cant
see half the screen, luckily you get a plantern in a level or two and you can see
it then. I was stuck here for a while, but when I used cattails it was so much 
easier, just use the strategy from 3 and 4, i recommend at this point using sun
flowers, and garden rakes (can be bought in Crazy Dave's shop for 200$" You 
REALLY want to use the torchwood, seeing as how they make your peas to DOUBLE 
damage. I personally have never really used the snow peas, but if your 
comfortable with them go ahead.

-=World 5=-
And last but not least, the roof level, make sure you buy the roof cleaners, 
you will need them. Here is what I did the whole time, first two columns are 
sun flowers, third column is cabbagepults, fourth column is corn pults, and 
fifth column is tall-nuts. When you get the melonpults I suggest replacing 
column two with them. As for cob pults, dont use them, they take too long, 
and they're not that good. Bungee zombies are best countered by umbrella 
leaves. Get one or two in each row, NO MORE, they protect the eight squares
surrounding them, and their own. And my last tip for World 5, is gargantuans,
here's the thing, if they didn't throw the imp off of their back, then cherry
bombs would be all you need, however, I would advise using a cherry bomb, 
then using a jalapeno on the row, to kill the imp and the gargantuan.

-=Dr. Zomboss=-
This boss is very hard the first few times you fight him, so try doing this. 
Save all the ice shrooms and jalapenos you get, you need them to destroy his 
fire/ice balls. use all the other plants strategically to fight off the normal
zombies. You WILL have to use ice shrooms and jalapenos occasionally, jsut save
as many as you can.

-=How to earn a lot of money=-
Here is the best way without a doubt. You want to beat adventure and get your 
zen garden. Then play endless survival and adventure mode again to get plants.
Water plants and mushrooms give you 10,000$ just to sell them and they give you
2 diamonds when they're grown to full, which pays for the food, and more. Normal
plants like daytime plants and marigolds only give you 8,000$ to sell, but they 
give you two diamonds when grown to full. (Marigolds only give one diamond).


Hint:
-----
Submitted by: Nippu

To increase your plant growth

First of all you need to disable the full screen then go to your zen garden 
after feeding the plants normally it take 30min or feed them again.
to feed them all you have to do is to change your system time for earlier this will 
increase the growth & also buy more plants from Crazy guy.
for more info contact rahman.nawaf@gmail.com


Favorite Plants:
----------------
Even if you have "favorite" plants that you like to use, mix it up and use a plant
that might be out of your "comfort zone". The game is fairly forgiving of less than 
perfect play, and you might find that blowing up zombies in a conflagration of 
potato wedges or smashing them with a squash is more fun that you thought it would
be!


Increase plant growth:
----------------------
Disable full screen mode. Go to your zen garden. After feeding the plants, it will
normally take thirty minutes to feed them again. To feed them all, change the system
time to an earlier value. This will increase their growth.


Final Boss Trick:
-----------------
When facing the final boss in the game, he will launch massive fire balls and ice 
balls at your plants. The crush everything in their path except zombies(basically,
all plants in that row), but there is a way to stop them! To destroy the ice ball,
you must use a Chili Pepper in that row. To destroy the fire ball, you must use 
an Ice Shroom, but with a Coffee Bean, too, or else it'll fall asleep.


Easy money:
-----------
Get the Zen Garden. Water the plants until they do not need anything else. Advance
the system date ahead. The plants will need water again. Buy new plants, grow them 
to full size, then sell them. Repeat this to earn more money. You can also use this
technique when you have to get Marigolds in Crazy Dave's shop when they are out of
stock.

You open file user# in Your Profile folder by Hex Editor (with # is the number of game 
and Profile folder in a main folder of the game)
In line 0008 and 0009 you change by "FF" you will get more than 650.000$, and in line 
0010 you change by "01" you will get more than less 999.990$.


New seed selection:
-------------------
If you do not like the cards from Crazy Dave, exit the game and restart. The cards 
will change randomly.


Play Slot Machine for Extra Coins and Diamonds:
-----------------------------------------------
1.Set up your defenses around the slot machine. Try for one row of wallnuts on the
  right side, one or two rows of sunflowers on the left, and fill everything else 
  with pea and snow pea shooters.
2.Protect the lawn mowers. Each are worth a Gold Coin at the end of the game, so 
  don't let them mow the zombies.
3.Stop collecting sun around 1900 sun points. At this point, the garden should be 
  full, so getting the extra 100 points to win should be easy. Just collect enough
  sun to offset the slot machine.
4.Keep the slot machine spinning! It will randomly drop one or three gems as long 
  the patience lasts. 
5.If the Zombies get close to the mowers, end the game. Just collect the sun lying
  on the field to end the game.


Milking Walnut Bowling for coins:
---------------------------------
Here's how to make Walnut Bowling more profitable:
1.Protect the Lawnmowers -- Each Mower is worth one gold coin ($250).
2.Line up shots off the front runner. After the first zombie is hit, each additional
  zombie strike generates coins.
3.Create a front runner where none exists! Pole vaulting zombies run fast until 
  they vault over a nut, and the newspaper zombie runs fast after getting the paper
  destroyed by a nut. Just let them run a little bit down the lawn before sending a
  nut their way.
4.Just because you have nuts does not mean you have to use them. This is where "Nerves
  of Steel" comes into play. When there are a few zombies ambling down the lawn without
  a clear ricochet shot, wait a little bit to see if more of their friends will step 
  out to play. They can always be killed once they cross the red line.
5.Remember how many nuts it takes to kill a zombie; this is important when the cross
  the red line. Use one nut for regular zombies, three for bucket wearing zombies, 
  and two for the rest.
6.Reserve the exploding nuts. Try not to use those nuts unless a mob crosses the line,
  or there are not enough nuts or room to clear out a hard to kill zombie. Use the 
  regular walnuts for the zombies that have not reached the red line.
7.Don't use exploding nuts to kill pole vaulting zombies directly. Pole vaulting 
  zombies only jump obstacles in their own lane. A pole vaulting zombie who has not
  vaulted yet will safely jump over explosions or nuts in their own lane; so find a
  neighbor in the next lane and time the nut to hit when the pole vaulting zombie 
  gets close to the neighbor.


Pole Voulters:
--------------
Submitted by: zozo3350

When there is pole voulters, pick a wallnut and a chomper and make sure you can dig up 
plants and have lots of sun (for infinite sun type in game tohot). Put down a wallnut 
and a chomper behind it. The pole voulter will go over the wallnut straight into the 
chomper! Then dig up the chomper and he is gone.


Last Stand:

Submitted by: Joshua Atmadja

Hi. I have a trick for you to defeat the 'Last Stand' on Mini-games. Firstly, you must
have at least 8 slots of seed before you start.

-=Choose these plants=-
* Repeaters
* Gatling Peas
* Tall Nuts
* Tangle Kelps
* Lily Pads
* Torchwoods
* Coffee beans
* Magnet-shrooms

-=After you pick them up, do these lists=-
1. Put 2 repeaters from back columns on every rows (except the pool).
2. Put just only 1 repeater on the back columns on every pool rows (use lily pads before).
3. Change the repeaters on the pool become a gatling peas.
4. Put torchwoods in front of the repeaters and gatling peas (on pool use lily pads first).
5. Then, give the space a column and plant the magnet-shrooms on the lawn only.
6. Wake 'em up with coffee beans.
7. In front of the magnet-shrooms on the lawn, plant the tall nuts.

-=This is map for you how to do it=-
R R T <> M N
R R T <> M N
------------------------
G T K K K K
G T K K K K

-=Legends=-
R = Repeaters
G = Gatling Peas
T = Torchwoods
K = Tangle Kelps
M = Magnet-shrooms that have been awaken
N = Tall nuts

Note: Plant the tangle kelps on the last time. Good Luck!

Just thought it worth mentioning that the last bit isn't true - you don't need a coffee 
bean, the ice shroom will work fine without it.

In the fog:
-----------
When you are in the fog and you need light, and you dont have a lantern, use the
torch wood if you have the sun, because it shows you the space in front of it.


Dr. Zomboss:
------------
Submitted by: Dorthy

When Zomboss comes down to throw an ice ball or fire ball, you can use freeze shrooms 
to freeze him. This allows your various pults time to get in some damage on Zomboss 
himself. Jalapenos will also cause damage to him when he is down to toss a fire/ice 
ball. The more damage you can do to Zomboss, the quicker and easier it is to end this
level. Just remember to save at least one freeze shroom and one jalapeno for what ever
he tosses.

Mini games:
-----------
The only way to earn sun in zombie mini-games not the ones when you have to break
the pots the only way to get sun is killing sunflowers so this is my trick of doing
these mini-games first put a good zombie for the situation in the lane you want it 
to go in then make sure that there is sunflowers planted in that lane then collect 
the sun when the zombie eats the flower and buy more stuff and eat the brains.


Getting light in fog:
---------------------
When you are in fog and need light (and you do not have a lantern), use the torch wood
if you have the sun. It shows you the space in front of it.


Last Stand tactics:

Submitted by: julian_voet.baller

Choose these plants:

*Threepeater (1)
*Repeater (2)
*Gatling Pea (planted on repeater) (3)
*Torchwood (4)
*Lily Pad
*Garlic (5)
- on the map means nothing.

You'll probably have more slots open. You can use (for instance) the Squash, or the 
Gold Magnet (with magnet-shroom, otherwise it won't work). And place them like this.

- - - - - - - 5 5
1 2 3 4 - - - - -
1 2 3 4 - - - - -
1 2 3 4 - - - - -

Now it's very important you have enough sun to replace your garlics. So always keep 
some sun after another flag...
Have fun!

Easy Sun Hack:
--------------
Submitted by: Jimbojones

A very easy way to hack sun is to first download 'iHaxgamez.' You can guess this by simply 
typing in 'download iHaxgamez' on google. Once it is downloaded, go into the application. 
If you have a mac, it will ask your mac password. Now you should go into plants vs zombies 
before anything else. Once you are on the level that you want money for, go back to iHaxgamez. 
There should be a list of things that you want to hack. Click on plants vs zombies, then search. 
Go back to plants vs zombies, choose your plants and play. You should have 50 sun. 
If you are doing last stand you will have 5000 and 'izombie' will give you 150. 
Lets say you were doing adventure. At the start of the game you should have 50 sun. 
Go back to iHaxgamez and type in 50 where it says 'search for'. Once you have done this, 
a list of searches will appear. You need to find the right one. To do this go back to plants 
vs zombies and change your amount of money. I tend to change my amount by buying something 
cheap like a lily pad or you can get more sun by picking up a sun icon. Lets say you changed 
your amount by buying a lilypad. Lilypad's cost 25 sun, so you should have 25 sun left. 
Go back to iHaxgamez and where it says in the bottom right corner 'current value' type in 25. 
Now where there were lots of searches there might only be one. If there are more than one, 
change your amount of money again. Eventually you should only have 1 search result. 
Double click on the result and simply type in the amount of money you want. 
Do not have too much, otherwise you will be left with the 25 sun you left of with. 
I tend to type in 999999999 max otherwise it will crash. One last thing. 
If you change your result to 10000000 if will almost certainly crash, so dont do it. 
Dont know why. 

Thank you for listening to this explanation. This hack is a great way to get past 
difficult levels and get you the '8000 sun' achievement. THANK YOU AND GOODNIGHT!!!

first open your cheat engine 5.5 then open your plant vs zombie then play and actually you 
will have 50 sun power at the first then you choose the top left in the cheat engine and you 
choose your plant vs zombie icon (example:Plant vs Zombie.xxx(xxx can be anything so just 
choose)then type your first sun power (50)then click first scan in the cheat engine. then 
you go again to plant vs zombie then buy anything (in the play mode don't you buy the maximum 
prize so better you buy the 25 costs sun power) now your sun power are 25 so now you type 25 
in the hex code replace the 50 code. then you click next scan and you will find 1 address the 
double click the address. then change the value of 25 become 1000000000 (1000000000 are the 
maximum sun power if more than that the game will crash(error)
