The next Grow a Garden update is set for Saturday, November 7, 2026, at 20:30 UTC. That’s 12:30 PM PST, 3:30 PM EST, 8:30 PM in the UK and 4:30 AM on Sunday in the Philippines. It comes right after the Halloween finale: the official Ghoul Garden 3 listing ends 30 minutes earlier, at 20:00 UTC. The developer hasn’t named the update yet. Its official Roblox event listing is just called “NEXT UPDATE”, with “???” as its subtitle.
Everything on this page comes from three places: the official event listings on the Grow a Garden game page, the game page itself, and the official @GrowaGardenRblx X account. Checked November 5, 2026, at 18:30 UTC. This is our weekly Grow a Garden update tracker, and we roll it forward every Saturday. No leaks and no datamines: if The Garden Game hasn’t announced it, it isn’t here.

Quick answer
- Next update: Saturday, November 7, 2026, 20:30 UTC (12:30 PM PST / 3:30 PM EST).
- Listing runs until: Saturday, November 14, 20:00 UTC. That’s one week, as usual.
- Admin Abuse: the developer’s update posts say it “will begin ~30 minutes before” the update. So expect it around 20:00 UTC (12:00 PM PST / 3:00 PM EST).
- Halloween ends: Ghoul Garden 3, “the finale of the Ghoul Garden Halloween event”, ends November 7 at 20:00 UTC.
- What’s in it: not announced yet. The listing has no description beyond “Follow the event so you don’t miss out…”.
- Watch for a time change: the listing was posted on October 29, before US clocks went back. Last March the listing times moved by an hour when US clocks changed. If that happens again, the update would start at 21:30 UTC (1:30 PM PST). We’ll update this page if the listing changes.

Grow a Garden update time in every region (November 7)
Here’s the official listing time converted to local time. US and UK clocks went back on November 1, so these are winter (standard) times. In Asia and Oceania the update lands on Sunday morning.

| Sydney (AEDT) | Sun Nov 8, 7:00 AM | Sun Nov 8, 7:30 AM | Sun Nov 15, 7:00 AM |
| New Zealand (NZDT) | Sun Nov 8, 9:00 AM | Sun Nov 8, 9:30 AM | Sun Nov 15, 9:00 AM |
The Admin Abuse column is an estimate. It uses the developer’s own rule of thumb, “Admin Abuse will begin roughly 30 minutes before” the update, from its July 10 and August 27 posts. Roblox doesn’t list Admin Abuse as its own event on Saturdays.
Why the US time is an hour earlier than in summer
All summer, the developer’s X posts gave the update time as “1:30 PM PST” (for example the Fall Market Part 2 post on September 24). The listings put those updates at 20:30 UTC, which was 1:30 PM on US Pacific daylight time. The November 7 listing still says 20:30 UTC. Now that US clocks have gone back, that’s 12:30 PM PST and 3:30 PM EST.
Here’s the catch. Last winter the listings started at 18:00 UTC (10 AM Pacific). After US clocks went forward on March 8, they moved to 17:00 UTC, so the Pacific time stayed at 10 AM. The November 7 listing was posted on October 29, before this year’s clock change. So the developer may still shift it to 21:30 UTC to keep “1:30 PM” Pacific. If that happens, add one hour to every time in the table. We’ll recheck the listing on Saturday and update this page.
What has the developer said about the November 7 update?
Not much yet, and that’s normal for this game. Here’s everything official, as of November 5 at 18:30 UTC:
- The listing name: “NEXT UPDATE”, subtitle “???”, category “new content”. Its only text is “Follow the event so you don’t miss out…”.
- The listing art: a big white question mark over a giant green, leafy plant in an empty garden plot, with a player standing next to it (the picture at the top of this page). It hints at a new plant, but it doesn’t name one, so we won’t guess.
- When it was posted: October 29, about nine days early. That’s typical. Since April, most Grow a Garden listings went up eight to ten days before the update.
- The X reveal: the developer usually posts a “THIS WEEKEND” announcement on the Thursday or Friday before. That’s when Fall Finale (October 1), Fall Market Part 2 (September 24) and Beanstalk (August 27) were revealed. We couldn’t find a post about the November 7 update yet. We’ll add it here when one appears.
- The game page: the title still reads “[🎃] Grow a Garden 🌶️”, and the game was last updated on November 5 at 06:05 UTC. When the pumpkin tag changes, the new update is probably live.
Is the November 7 update a new event?
The developer hasn’t said. But the update log below shows a clear pattern. Since Easter, every time an event finished, the next update started a new one. Easter’s finale was followed by Bizzy Bees. Bizzy Bees Part 4 was followed by Campfire. Then came Summer, Harvest Moon, Beanstalk, Fall Market, the Fairy event and Ghoul Garden. Ghoul Garden 3 is officially “the finale of the Ghoul Garden Halloween event”. So a new event on November 7 would fit the pattern. That’s our reading of the log, not an announcement.

What ends on November 7: Ghoul Garden 3
The Halloween event wraps up on Saturday at 20:00 UTC (12:00 PM PST / 3:00 PM EST). Ghoul Garden 3 started on October 31 at 20:30 UTC. Its listing says it “brings Part 3 and the finale of the Ghoul Garden Halloween event, brand new activities to participate in, new pets, plants, rewards, QOL, and lots more”.
The official listing doesn’t say which Halloween items stay after the event ends. So use what’s left of your time on what you want most. Our Grow a Garden Ghoul Garden guide covers the Halloween currency, pets and parts.
What to do before the update
- Finish your Halloween goals first. Spend event currency and claim rewards before 20:00 UTC on Saturday.
- Be online about 30 minutes early. Admin Abuse usually starts around 20:00 UTC, before the update itself.
- Follow the event on Roblox. Open the NEXT UPDATE listing and press Notify or Follow. Roblox will remind you when it starts.
- Join a new server after 20:30 UTC. If you can’t see the new content, leave and join a fresh server.
- Check for a new code. Codes come from the official X account. Our Grow a Garden codes page tracks them and says when we last checked.
- Don’t forget Wednesday. Watering Wednesday Admin Abuse has run every Wednesday at 22:00 UTC since April. If that continues, the next one is November 11 (no listing for it yet). Our Watering Wednesday guide has the times in every region.

Grow a Garden or Grow a Garden 2?
They’re two different games, and the same X account posts about both, so don’t mix them up. This page covers the original Grow a Garden by The Garden Game. Grow a Garden 2 is a separate experience by Strawberreh Squad. It had 782 players online when we checked and no upcoming event listings on Roblox. When the X account posts “GROW A GARDEN 2 UPDATE OUT NOW”, that update is for the sequel, not for the game on this page. Its posts about the original sometimes start with “GAG 1:”.
