Grows in real time
Eight seeds from Lettuce (1 hour) to Pumpkin (24 hours), Crystal Rose (48 hours) and Moon Melon (72 hours). Plants move from seed to sprout to ripe while members are away.
Idle garden game for Discord: plant, water each other’s gardens and harvest
Idle Garden gives every member a small plot of land. Buy a seed, plant it and come back when it’s ripe: plants grow in real time, from a one-hour lettuce to a three-day moon melon. Water a friend’s garden to make it grow faster, chat to give your own plants a boost, then harvest and sell the crops for Bank coins.

/garden plant seed:Strawberry
Planted 🍓 Strawberry in plot 2 for 🪙 60. Ripe in 8 h 0 min.
Only you can see this
/garden water member:@Iris
You watered @Iris’s garden (3 plants): it grows faster for 6 hours.
What you get
Water each other
/garden water waters every plant in a friend’s garden for a few hours and speeds it up (by 50 % by default). A cooldown keeps it fair.
Chat makes it grow
Counted messages add a few growing minutes to the author’s plants, with a per-member cooldown and an hourly cap. Message text is never read.
A picture of your garden
/garden view draws your plots, what’s growing and your crops as an image, with Harvest, Sell all, Water and Refresh buttons right under it.
A seed shop you tune
Change any seed’s price, growing time, crops per harvest and sale price, or switch seeds off. The console shows the profit per hour of each seed.
Best gardeners
/garden top ranks your server’s gardeners, and each garden keeps its harvests, coins earned and how often friends watered it.
How it works
Turn on Idle Garden
Open https://console.botgg.app, choose your server and turn on the Bank and Idle Garden in the Engagement section. Choose how many plots each member gets.
Tune the seed shop
Keep the eight built-in seeds or change their prices, growing times and yields. Set the watering boost and cooldowns and how much chat speeds things up.
Members plant and wait
Members buy and plant with
/garden plant, check on things with/garden viewand see all seeds and prices with/garden seeds.Harvest, sell, repeat
Ripe plants go into the crop basket with
/garden harvest, and/garden sellturns crops into coins. Then plant the next round.
A cozy game that brings members back every day
Short seeds reward people who check in often, long seeds reward patience, and watering gives members a reason to visit each other’s gardens. Growth is calculated from real time, so nothing is lost while the bot is busy, and a watering only speeds up growth from that moment on.
Each member gets up to 4 plots on Free servers and up to 6 on Pro; you can set a lower number in the console. Seeds and crops use the server’s virtual Bank coins: without the Bank, seeds are free and crops can’t be sold.

Frequently asked questions
What is an idle garden game on Discord?
A farming game that runs in the background: you plant seeds with a command, they grow in real time while you do other things, and you come back to harvest and sell the crops.
How do I make plants grow faster?
Ask friends to water your garden with /garden water, which speeds up every plant for a few hours, and keep chatting: counted messages add growing minutes to your plants.
Can I water my own garden?
Only if the server allows it. By default watering is a social action, so you water friends and they water you.
What do crops sell for?
Each seed has a number of crops per harvest and a price per crop, which the server can change. Selling pays the server’s virtual Bank coins.
Does the garden need the Bank?
Selling crops does. Without the Bank, seeds are free to plant but crops can’t be sold, so turn on the Bank for the full game.
