Grow a Garden Ghoul Garden: Schedule, Start Times & Next Countdown

Updated August 21, 2026 By AllThingsHow Staff 23K playing now

Ghoul Garden is Grow a Garden’s Halloween celebration, and it comes back every Saturday. Each run reopens the spooky side of the farm with new seeds, pets, and event mechanics, and the developer keeps building on it week after week — so the garden grows through the season rather than resetting to the same thing each time.

Grow a Garden is one of the biggest experiences on Roblox, with more than 35 billion visits and over 11 million favorites, and roughly about 23,000 players tending their plots right now. Ghoul Garden runs on a weekly rhythm inside that world, and the next start time and the usual Saturday windows are on the card below.

How often Ghoul Garden runs

Ghoul Garden returns weekly, landing on Saturday mornings in the eastern US. It has opened 3 times so far, and the next one is expected around Saturday, August 29 at 10:40 AM ET. That date is our best estimate from its usual Saturday rhythm; we confirm it once the developer posts the next run.

Recent runs have gone live within a short Saturday-morning window, at these Eastern times:

DayEastern Time (ET)

Saturday11:00 AM ET

Because Grow a Garden’s players are spread across the globe, that Saturday-morning slot falls at very different local times. Using the 10:40 AM ET opening as a marker, that works out to about 3:40 PM in the UK, 4:40 PM across central Europe, 8:10 PM in India, 11:40 PM in Japan, and 12:40 AM Sunday on Australia’s east coast — useful to know if you are planning your week around it.

What’s inside the latest Ghoul Garden

The most recent run, Ghoul Garden 3, is the second expansion of the Halloween update and pushes the event further again. It brings:

  • A new in-event activity to work through
  • New seeds to grow and new pets to collect
  • Fresh, Halloween-themed weather effects
  • Quality-of-life improvements that smooth out the farm
  • The recurring “Admin Abuse” moments, this time built around a glass-animals theme

Each Saturday tends to layer more on top, so the seed list, pets, and event features keep expanding as the season goes on.

Tips for catching Ghoul Garden

  • Saturday morning ET is the reliable window — pick whichever of the three times lines up best with your day.
  • If that lands late where you live, set a reminder for the ET slot the evening before.
  • Missing a week is no problem: the event returns the next Saturday, usually with more added than the run before.

How Ghoul Garden fits Grow a Garden’s week

Grow a Garden keeps a busy event calendar, so Ghoul Garden shares the schedule with the midweek Watering Wednesday, the ongoing Harvest Moon runs, and the game’s regular Next Update drops. Within that rotation, Ghoul Garden is the Saturday anchor — the Halloween-flavored highlight of the week — while Watering Wednesday covers the middle of the week and the Next Update slot handles broader additions to the game.
