Please note:

  • This is a strategy for early levels, and will probably not work later on.
  • This strategy doesn't tangle with Ankylosaurus2.png. I make sure Ankylosaurus2.png never appears.
  • No Premiums or Gemiums are used
  • Each column is ranked from the left. So 1st column is closest to house, 9th column is furthest from house.

Plants: 

Primal Sunflower2.png Primal Potato Mine2.png Primal Wall-nut2.png Perfume-shroom2.png Cherry Bomb2.png Primal Peashooter2.png Winter Melon2.png

Reasons:

  • Primal Sunflower2.png: For sun production. You can switch to Twin Sunflower2.png if you want, but this plant is recommended due to fast zombie attacks.
  • Primal Potato Mine2.png: Provides an early attack for the first few zombies; takes care of 3 lanes in levels with early attacks.
  • Primal Wall-nut2.png: Early defenses and for quick planting later on. Jurassic Gargantuar2.png will take longer to smash.
  • Perfume-shroom2.png: Charm Dinos.If working with Ankylosaurus2.png, use Spikeweed2.png instead.
  • Cherry Bomb2.png: To take out mass zombie hoards; Damage for Jurassic Gargantuar2.png. Can be replaced with stalling plants
  • Primal Peashooter2.png: Pushes back zombies for more time.
  • Winter Melon2.png: Mass damage and slowdown!!!!!!

Level:

First, start planting Primal Sunflower2.png's in the 2 columns close to the house. Next is Plant Food use. If the level has 1 flag, use 1 Plant Food. If the level has 2-4, use 2. This is because levels with 3-4 flags, you can utilize extra Plant Food given in the level. When the first zombie appears, don't try to kill it yet. Wait. You should have at least 5 Primal Sunflower2.png's by now. At this point, place down a Primal Potato Mine2.png. After that, start planting Primal Wall-nut2.png's on the 7th. When the next zombie appears, if the lane doesn't have a Primal Wall-nut2.png, place down another Primal Potato Mine2.png. If there is one, place down a Primal Peashooter2.png. Placing more Primal Peashooter2.png's on the 3rd column is the next step, as well as the 4th column and 5th column. When 10 Primal Sunflower2.png's are placed, start planting more on the 6th column. When all 5 Primal Sunflower2.png's are done, start planting more Primal Wall-nut2.png's on the 8th column. Replace the ones on the 7th column with more Primal Sunflower2.png's, and the Primal Sunflower2.png's on the 6th column with Primal Peashooter2.png's. Do this same process with the 9th column, and the respective columns. Finally, plant Winter Melon2.png's on the 2nd column, then the 1st. Additionally, replace the rest of the Primal Sunflower2.png's with Primal Peashooter2.png's., if you have enough time.

The lawn should look like this in all rows when all Primal Sunflower2.png's are gone: Winter Melon2.png Winter Melon2.png Primal Peashooter2.png Primal Peashooter2.png Primal Peashooter2.png Primal Peashooter2.png Primal Peashooter2.png Primal Peashooter2.png Primal Wall-nut2.png

Additionally, you can plant another row of Primal Wall-nut2.png's on the 8th column and/or 7th for extra protection.

Another strategy:

Plants: Primal Sunflower2.png Primal Potato Mine2.png Primal Wall-nut2.png Stallia2.png Cherry Bomb2.png Primal Peashooter2.png Winter Melon2.png

Stallia2.png is the replacement for Perfume-shroom2.png.

Basically, the strategy is similar to the strategy above, except the lawn should look like this in all lanes when finished:

Winter Melon2.png Winter Melon2.png Primal Peashooter2.png Primal Peashooter2.png Primal Peashooter2.png Primal Peashooter2.png Primal Wall-nut2.png Primal Potato Mine2.png Primal Wall-nut2.png

Notes:

  • Use Perfume-shroom2.png on the first dino, especially if it's a Pterodactyl2.png.
  • Replant Primal Sunflower2.png when eaten
  • If a Pterodactyl2.png manages to bring a zombie to the back, simply dig the plants up and replace them with a Primal Wall-nut2.png and Primal Potato Mine2.png
  • For early ambushes, especially with Jurassic Imp2.png, use a combination of Primal Wall-nut2.png's and Primal Potato Mine2.png's, as well as one or 2 Primal Peashooter2.png's. After that, follow the strategy accordingly.
  • Use Cherry Bomb2.png for big hoards and Jurassic Gargantuar2.png's.
  • If there are Jurassic Gargantuar2.png's, consider replacing the Primal Peashooter2.png's on the 3rd column with Primal Wall-nut2.png, so you don't need to replant any Primal Sunflower2.png on that row due to a thrown Jurassic Imp2.png
  • Use Stallia2.png to stall the first few zombies
