Strategies

The best way to win this level is to constantly stall dangerous zombies such as: Jester Zombie, Octo Zombie and Gargantuars. Zoybean can easily kill zombies when they are stalled, Apple Motar is also helpful since they can easily damage and attack zombies and sometimes can even attack Jester Zombies Use Plant Food on Zoybean to produce Gargantuars, be keep in mind they can easily be killed in Extra Hot levels.
