Archeologist Archie runs the Ancient Archaeology dig site during the Anubis event in Grow a Garden, the Roblox gardening game. He asks for one plant trait at a time, and Vegetable is one of his 12. When his bubble switches to Vegetable, only fruit from Vegetable plants fill his weight bar, so it helps to know which plants count and which seeds are cheapest.
Quick answer: Carrot Seed, at 10¢ in Sam’s Seed Shop, is the cheapest Vegetable seed. Harvest Carrots, then hand them to Archie when his bubble reads “Looking for Vegetable plants!”.
All 79 Vegetable plants in Grow a Garden
Any plant with the Vegetable trait counts for Archie. Many plants carry more than one trait and count toward each of them. Tomato and Pumpkin are also Fruit and Leafy, and Corn is also Fruit and Stalky. Artichoke, Asteris, Badlands Pepper, Beanstalk, Bee Bell, Bell Pepper, Bitter Melon, Broccoli, Brussels Sprout, Campfire Clover, Candy Corn Carrot, Carnival Pumpkin, Carrot, Cauliflower, Chilli Mango, Chocolate Carrot, Clove, Coilvine, Coolcool Beanbeanstalk, Corn, Dragon Pepper, Eggplant, Elder Beanstalk, Emerald Bud, Evo Beetroot I, Evo Beetroot II, Evo Beetroot III, Evo Beetroot IV, Evo Pumpkin I, Evo Pumpkin II, Evo Pumpkin III, Evo Pumpkin IV, Fall Cauliflower, Fennel, Franken Squash, Frost Pepper, Ghost Pepper, Grand Tomato, Great Pumpkin, Iciclesco, Jack O Lantern, Jalapeno, Jelly Bean Sprout, King Cabbage, Log Pumpkin, Magma Pepper, Mandrake, Mini Pumpkin, Mint, Mutant Carrot, Okra, Onion, Parsley, Pecan, Pepper, Pollenvine, Polypea Sprout, Potato, Pumpkin, Pumpkin Lantern, Purple Cabbage, Radish, Rhubarb, Romanesco, Russet Root, Severed Spine, Shadow Spine, Sherrybloom, Smore Suckle, Snaparino Beanarini, Tall Asparagus, Taro Flower, Tomato, Turnip, Untold Bell, Violet Corn, Wheatcap, Wild Carrot, Zucchini
The seven new Anubis event plants—1) Ankh Flower, 2) Anubis Bramble, 3) Papyrus, 4) Prosperity Palm, 5) Tomb Lily, 6) Pharaoh’s Eye, and 7) Wraproot—lack the Vegetable trait, so they are no use during a Vegetable turn.
Vegetable seeds in Sam’s Seed Shop
Sam’s Seed Shop sells seven Vegetable seeds. Buy Carrot Seeds with the green Sheckles button; the purple option costs Robux, and the blue option says “Gift”, so neither is needed.
| Seed | Rarity | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Carrot | Common | 10¢ |
| Tomato | Rare | 800¢ |
| Corn | Rare | 1,300¢ |
| Pumpkin | Legendary | 3,000¢ |
| Pepper | Divine | 1,000,000¢ |
| Beanstalk | Prismatic | 10,000,000¢ |
| Romanesco | Prismatic | 10,000,000,000¢ |
Stock changes between restocks. A seed can show a count like “X24 Stock” or sit at “NO STOCK”, and the shop header counts down to fresh seeds with a line such as “New seeds in 3m 11s”. If the seed you want is sold out, wait for the timer rather than pressing “RESTOCK” at the top of the shop, which costs Robux.
How to give Vegetable plants to Archeologist Archie
A message confirms that the hand-in worked, for example “+0.25kg of Vegetable plants! (2.79kg/8kg)”. The weight bar on the board beside Archie climbs with each fruit. Three Carrots handed in one at a time moved one board to “3.46kg/8kg”.
Archie’s trait rotation and weight goals
Archie changes the trait he wants every 30 minutes.
- Berry, Fruit, Flower, Vegetable
- Tropical, Prickly, Woody, Leafy
- Stalky, Root, Sweet, Sour
Only harvested fruit counts, and Archie measures it by weight. His menu also has “Who are you?”, “Skip Submission” and “Nevermind”. “Skip Submission” is a paid option that you never need.
The board shows the next reward and how much weight is still needed. The first find takes 8 kg and gives 1x Anubis Crate. The one after that shows “1x Hieroglyphic Radar” with a bar starting at “0kg/12kg”.
Carrots cost little and mature quickly, so a planted row keeps you prepared for a Vegetable request. During Anubis sandstorms, Carrots and Tomatoes can gain the Hieroglyphic mutation; Trader Tina accepts those fruits in exchange for Anubis Coins.
Archie rotates through other traits too. See the full Ancient Archaeology trait list, plus the Leafy, Sweet and Woody plant lists.
