The recent Bizzy Bees update for Grow a Garden has introduced an exciting feature: the limited-time Bee Swarm event. During this event, bees will fly over to your plot, pollinate your crops, and consequently impart the Pollinated mutation to your fruits. However, players previously faced challenges in directing these bees to attain event-specific mutations on desired plants. Fortunately, today’s update changes that dynamic with the introduction of the Nectar Staff, a new tool designed to simplify the acquisition of the Pollinated mutation, albeit at a cost of honey. If you’ve been aiming to pollinate a Moon Melon, it’s essential to learn how to get your hands on the Nectar Staff and utilize it effectively in Grow a Garden.
Acquiring the Nectar Staff in Grow a Garden
With the latest Friendship update (formerly known as the Bizzier Bees update), there are now two methods to obtain the coveted Nectar Staff — through the Honey Shop or by visiting the Bizzy Bear Chef.
1. Purchase from the Honey Shop
The most straightforward way to acquire the Nectar Staff is to purchase it directly from the Honey Shop within Grow a Garden. The price of the Nectar Staff is set at 25 honey, and thanks to recent adjustments, players can now collect honey using the Combpresser in just 30 seconds, which is a significant reduction from the previous time of 3 minutes.
If you find yourself short on honey, you can alternatively buy the Nectar Staff for 219 Robux. Note that since this item is categorized as Mythical rarity, it may not always be available for purchase.
2. Crafting with Bizzy Bear Chef
An alternative route to obtain the Nectar Staff is by crafting it through the newly introduced NPC, Bizzy Bear. This adorable bear chef is stationed next to the Queen Bee near the Bee Swarm event area, sporting a chef’s hat. Bizzy Bear offers a selection of recipes among which you can find the Nectar Staff. The crafting process involves the following steps:
- To the left of Bizzy Bear, you must submit honey.
- To the right, you will need to provide fruit, either Pollinated or HoneyGlazed, depending on the current demand. This could include items like blueberries, carrots, roses, and others.
After submitting the necessary materials, you can interact with Bizzy Bear to retrieve your crafted item. The Nectar Staff is available as the 3rd, 9th, 19th, and 24th rewards, thus you’ll need to gather a considerable amount of honey and Pollinated fruit. Below is a breakdown of the recipes that can yield the Nectar Staff:
- 3 Honey and 1.4kg HoneyGlazed Rose: 1x Nectar Staff
- 7 Honey and 4.8kg Pollinated Bamboo: 1x Nectar Staff
- 23 Honey and 30kg Pollinated Mushroom: 2x Nectar Staff
- 28 Honey and 7.8kg Pollinated Pepper: 3x Nectar Staff
Utilizing the Nectar Staff in Grow a Garden
Employing the Nectar Staff is a straightforward process, as it functions similarly to the Night Staff or the Star Caller that you may have already placed in your garden to generate Moonlit and Celestial mutations. To utilize the Nectar Staff, follow these simple steps:
- Locate the Nectar Staff in your backpack and click the left mouse button to select it.
- Navigate to the designated area in your plot where you wish to position the staff and click the left mouse button again.
- This action will place the Nectar Staff in your selected location, attracting bees once the Bee Swarm event commences.
Once the Nectar Staff is placed, hover your mouse pointer over it to view the remaining number of uses, known as bee attractions. Keep in mind that the Nectar Staff comprises 8 uses, ensuring that you will acquire 8 plants with the Pollinated mutation during the Bee Swarm event.
With this guide, you now know how to obtain and effectively use the Nectar Staff in Grow a Garden to boost your gardening experience and enjoy the new crafting features this update has rolled out. Prepare for an even busier time nurturing your garden!
