In Normal mode, the player has to beat the zombies at Level 1.
Difficulty
This level is pretty easy, as it showcases the Cattail. Despite the presence of Breakdancer Zombie, his ability isn't too worrying. However, what is worrying is Punk Zombie and Hair Metal Gargantuar, so the player should be cautious when dealing with them.
Waves
- The small number next to the zombie icon means that zombie will always appear in that lane, with 1 being the topmost lane and 5 being the bottommost lane.

Strategies
- Start off by planting Puff-shrooms and Infi-nuts.
- As Cattails start to appear, start planting them. Plant them on the first two columns.
- When punk starts to play, use plant food on Infi-nut to prevent Punk Zombies from going further.
- Hurrikale starts appearing later into the game, save them for Hair Metal Gargantuar.
- Finally, when Hair Metal Gargantuar appears, use Puff-shrooms to stall them. Note that the punk jam continues to play, so they move twice as fast. To counter the speed boost, use Hurrikales on them.
