| One color '''Color 2 - Blue -> light blue''' - '''Update 1''' for all 34 gardens. Seems like the growth rate has slowed to incredibly slow. After 8 hours there were only two gardens of 34 with two items, and then only any items for 7 of the 17 colors, meaning that no items did grow in the 20 gardens for the remaining 10 gardens. Also for some of the 7 colors where something did grow it was not in both gardens... This would not have happened the first week! As can be seen by the development of only one garden of each color.

    • If you do not wish your user name displayed (or link to special contribution) then use the table below for experimental gardens.
User Garden url Description Day of creation (screen-shot links?)
Halrandir Garden Point source of light, but hitting approximately equal areas of the ground with five different colors. April 16th
.42 Garden Plants grow toward the lights with duck and medium sized trees April 5th
.42 Garden Intense blue light creates an octopus garden (And that octopus has a Black Hat. Relax.) No pillars here, when they started to appear in other blue gardens on April 7th (see experimental gardens below). After one light is changed to white, Black Hat arrives. April 5th, April 7th
.42 Garden Some of the grass is very flexible. Left bending, Straight, Right bending
.42 Garden Mandelbrot set and birds, one carrying Megan (later two Megans in the air) April 5th, April 6th
.42 Garden Cueball and octopus have a gardening store for deer, with birdbaths and a duck. Shining a light at the crown of the bare trees causes one to grow a face. Here the new pillars appeared in the blue area. April 5th, April 6th, April 8th
.42 Garden Megan waves a wand and office furniture appears (two wands later and bunnies and Cueball). After pruning the second wand, a bird arrives. April 5th, April 6th, April 8th
.42 Garden Stilt girl watches a shark in the birdbath from a safe distance. Megan brings a sword to make the water safe for a duck. Development goes on as there now are two stilts girl on the gate, and the bird bath also has a jumping fish and a heron appeared in the pond! April 11th, April 12th, April 13th
.42 Garden Megball discussing tree growth. April 16th
Liera21 Garden Megan fighting an octopus army possibly saving Cueball? Flowers have later appeared to the left. April 5th, April 8th
Dry Paratroopa Garden Plants appear to prefer red light to blue, and fountains are capable of growing in trees. April 5th
Special 71 Garden Mars rovers strange tree multiple tree deer etc. April 5th
Special 230 Garden A little bit of everything including Beret Guy and a cat. April 5th
Kynde Garden Flying birds, some with something in the beak, around large tree and birdbath, deer, snake, gate with two cactus on top turtles. Now yellow light, have been all colors. Four Beret Guys in the lake, sways, and two gates. Cannot change this garden anymore. Now five Beret and cats in different positions. Is that bugs in the air. Really need to prune it but can't :-(. The bugs disappeared the next day? April 4th, April 5th, Pruning 5th, April 6th, April 7th, April 8th
Kynde Garden Try to recreate the first garden that was locked with flying birds. Same color settings to begin with as the one above began with. April 11th start
Kynde Garden My new garden as the old one seems to be locked now after the next comic. Tries with some colors in between orange, white and yellow. Haven't really done anything with those colors before. Will not change the next 15 hours! UPDATE: Coool a Sale sign I had not seen before and also I do not think it was in the posted link to images, so maybe new items continue to appear when Randall makes them? Also my first potted plant and Star plant. And a very bendy water plant in the lake a Typha I think. It can even bend into the water, see examples. April 6th, April 7th, bend left, bend right, under water
Kynde Garden Another new garden as the two above has been locked. Try with only one color touching ground. The one that gave stone in my experimental garden. But then two other colors would touch anything growing up above the ground. And they also touch at the edges. Early image when just two monolith appeared. Later Heron and Megan with turtle etc. April 8th, April 13th
Kynde Garden New garden using the three colors to begin with that seems to give the most interesting one color gardens from the experiment below. Yellow, Red orange and Blue white. Only small overlap with red orange in the middle. But this may change, this is not an experiment but my new garden. April 9th
Kynde Garden My new favorite garden that sprouted my first linsang cat like creature held up by Megan. She then got a platform and more linsangs appeared. Later she got a whole stack on top of the platform with cactus etc. See image of that bunch, then of it selected and finally after serious pruning - cool garden with MEgan looking like she is doing a circus act. Wonder if more will grow now... SC April 7th, April 12th, April 13th 3 linsangs, April 13th bunch, April 13th selected, April 13th pruned
spooky3do Garden Cueball giving rectal exam to a deer. Very surreal garden also with Rovers. Now Cueball holds a Turtle in front of Megan making it look like she has a cap down over her eyes... And finally now a light pole with a lamp on top like the one from Narnia. A first! Very clear after pruning on the 11th. April 6th, April 8th, April 8th late, April 11th
Special 207 Garden Cueball can look like he's holding items if they grow on his outstretched hand and Megan with black hat. Now also Cueball has a black hat without looking like Black Hat as it is tilted. April 6th, April 8th
nicodemus Garden, Debugger Balloon string can bend into S shapes, even when there is a balloon attached. April 9th, Left, Right
Benderson Garden One lonely heron / Turns its back on the forest / And empty birdbaths April 10
MAP Garden Owl Hat!! Presently (April 15) have four characters, most doing interesting things. Ponytail is up on stilts wearing an owl on her head. When the owl first sprouted, she was mostly out of the light from being on the stilts, and I wondered if owls liked unlit space, but she does wave back into the light when the wind is right, so that's not really definitive. Additionally, we have beret guy swimming in the pond with a stork, and Megan hiding behind a deer, holding an owl in her hand. And Cueball just showed up standing alone on the left.

Experimental gardens

  • These gardens are for experiments, and also for gardens who is so misskept as to loose interest (gardens from above can then be moved here.)
    • In this section no user entry is needed.
User Garden url Description Day of creation (screen-shot links?)
Kynde Garden One yellow light (standard start) but interesting garden anyway with Megan in tree and star plant. April 5th, April 7th
Kynde Garden Two yellow lamps April 5th

Kynde Garden Sale sign right with Megan and a trunk sF: April 7th, April 8th
Anonymous Garden Grey Garden: Three Gray (or white) (between blue and yellow, ) lamps. Office desk and chair also normal table with pots birds and a cat and Cueballs on table. From there it developed into a match between the low Cueballs with hands down and the higher one with hand out. On April 13th there where six of each (checked in debug mode) and they are standing in front if each other. Three are even overlapping, so at least one of them is hard to see. As they stand on different things of different heights and with their different hight as well then they seem to have many different heights. April 7th, April 8th, April 13th
Anonymous Garden Blue, yellow, and red from underground. With a giant planteron pillars filled with trees. Later two desk lamps appeared on a platform on a cactus and there are two black hat octopuses. Seems like this only occurs for octopuses over the lake. April 8th, April 13th

Kynde Garden Color 1 Blue one color whole screen from center. Nothing happened for 12 hours then two hors later an Octopus - so it was not completely dead! After 18 hours also two Cueball checking for rain and another octopus makes this behave as expected although 12 hours delayed! For all these 17 garden here below there are several more images from up to more than a week after the gardens began here. April 7th, April 8th 14 hours, April 8th 18 hours - Details

Anon Garden Bluish White, White, Orange some overlap. Reddish end of the spectrum seems to produce more growth than the blue end. April 11th
Kynde Garden Growth speed one blue - 1. The one color blue garden grew very little compared to other gardens. So some gardens seem to grow only few items. Could it be distance? To test this these six gardens are created right after each other. Only blue light to make sure the light is the same, but with one, two or three lamps just covering everything, so the one lamp is much higher up than the three lamp version. Two of each type is made to see how much different progress will be. It was not as expected, see the results and the conclusion here. April 11th
Kynde Garden Growth speed one blue - 2. See first growth speed above April 11th
Kynde Garden Growth speed two blue - 1. See first growth speed above April 11th
Kynde Garden Growth speed two blue - 2. See first growth speed above April 11th
Kynde Garden Growth speed three blue - 1. See first growth speed above April 11th
Kynde Garden Growth speed three blue - 2. See first growth speed above April 11th
Kynde Garden Two colors 1 and 10. Here are eight gardens mixing light from top left and right corner covering the screen with both colors for the corners. Attempt will be made to adjust the colors with just a bit more than 90 degree between them (100 degree more or less). In this way by taking the first 8 colors (see numbering above in the one color experiment) and mixing them with the color 9 higher (so 1 to 8 with 10 to 17, omitting standard light), there will be these 8 mixes probably not used that often yet. Of course there are 17*16 =272 ways to mix two colors with this color division so here I just cover less than 3 %... April 13th
Kynde Garden Two colors 2 and 11. See 1 and 10 above April 13th
Kynde Garden Two colors 3 and 12. See 1 and 10 above April 13th
Kynde Garden Two colors 4 and 13. See 1 and 10 above April 13th
Kynde Garden Two colors 5 and 14. See 1 and 10 above April 13th
Kynde Garden Two colors 6 and 15. See 1 and 10 above April 13th
Kynde Garden Two colors 7 and 16. See 1 and 10 above April 13th
Kynde Garden Two colors 8 and 17. See 1 and 10 above April 13th
Kynde Garden, Backup One color Color 1 - Blue. Same experiment as above. But with much more precision in placing the color slide by using the color scale figure to set all 17 colors precisely. Also since there are many gardens that now doesn't sprout anything, two gardens, one will be a backup, has been made for all colors. The lamps have not been moved. This was the plan, but all these gardens became locked right after creation? Weird. Wonder if they will grow normally or if it was a big waste of time. Some of them though have sprouted already within 10 minutes... April 18th
Kynde Garden, Backup One color Color 2 - Blue -> light blue - Update 1 for all 34 gardens. Seems like the growth rate has slowed to incredibly slow. After 8 hours there were only two gardens of 34 with two items, and then only any items for 7 of the 17 colors, meaning that no items did grow in the 20 gardens for the remaining 10 gardens. Also for some of the 7 colors where something did grow it was not in both gardens... This would not have happened the first week! As can be seen by the development of only one garden of each color. Wonder if this continues and if it turns out that many of these 34 gardens are completely barren! April 18th
Kynde Garden, Backup One color Color 3 - Light blue April 18th
Kynde Garden, Backup One color Color 4 - Light blue -> blue white April 18th
Kynde Garden, Backup One color Color 5 - Blue white April 18th
