Why I’m Done Chasing Fake Codes
I wasted 30 minutes yesterday trying 15 different kode grow a garden from YouTube videos, and only 2 actually worked. The rest showed “Invalid code” errors because they expired months ago.
Most code websites never update their lists, leaving players frustrated with expired codes. After checking the grow a garden wiki and testing every code manually, here’s what actually works right now.
All Working Codes (January 2026)
Quick Answer: Only 2 codes are currently active in Grow a Garden, both giving cosmetic decorations.
| Code | Reward | Status | Expires |
|---|---|---|---|
| RDCAward | RDC Award (decoration) | ✅ Active | Unknown |
| BEANORLEAVE10 | Green Bean Chamber | ✅ Active | Unknown |
| torigate | Tori Gate | ❌ Expired | Late 2025 |
| LUNARGLOW10 | Lunar seeds | ❌ Expired | May 2025 |
⚠️ Reality Check: Neither code gives Shackles, eggs, or gameplay advantages—just decorations. For actual farming help, check optimized plant strategies here.
According to the official Grow a Garden Roblox game, codes are case-sensitive.
How to Redeem Codes (30 Seconds)
Step-by-Step:
- Click gear icon (⚙️) in top left
- Find “Redeem Codes” section
- Copy-paste code exactly (case-sensitive)
- Click green “Claim” button
Pro Tip: Copy-paste codes to avoid typos—typing “rdcaward” instead of “RDCAward” won’t work.
Event Codes (All Expired)
Grow a garden codes lunar event and grow a garden codes bee event expired when events ended:
Lunar Event (May 2025):
- LUNARGLOW10 ❌
- LunaGlow10 ❌
- Both gave moonlit seeds
Bee Event (2024-2025):
Event codes expire 2-4 weeks after events end without warning. Similar to timing Tranquil Plant Zen Events, code redemption requires quick action.
Generator Scams (Don’t Fall For It)
⚠️ Warning: The grow a garden generator websites are 100% scams.
They Promise:
- “Unlimited Shackles”
- “Free Robux”
- “Instant rare pets”
They Actually:
- Steal your Roblox password
- Install malware on your device
- Force fake surveys for ad revenue
Roblox uses server-side currency—no external tool can modify your Shackles. The ONLY legitimate rewards come from official codes.
Where to Find New Codes
I check these sources weekly for grow a garden NEW codes:

Verified Community:
Set calendar reminders for 1st and 15th monthly to check updates. Use the Grow a Garden Calculator for farming optimization while waiting for codes.
Why Codes Stopped Giving Shackles
Most players ask: “Why don’t codes give Shackles anymore?”
Developer Reasoning:
Early 2024 codes gave seed packs and minor currency, but developers shifted to decorations-only by late 2024. This matches the shift toward recipe-based progression like Sweet Tea crafting.
Are Codes Worth Your Time?
After tracking codes for 8+ months, here’s my honest take:
Worth It (30 seconds):
Not Worth Stressing:
Focus energy on crop optimization and mutations instead—codes are bonus extras, not core progression.
Quick Redemption Checklist

❌ Don’t use generator websites
❌ Don’t wait to redeem later

FAQs
Q: Will developers add more codes that give Shackles?
No confirmed plans. Since late 2024, all codes give cosmetic decorations only, and developers haven’t indicated this will change.
Q: How do developers decide code rewards?
Final Thoughts
Only 2 kode grow a garden work right now, and both give decorations. Don’t waste time on fake code lists or generator scams.
Redeem RDCAward and BEANORLEAVE10 now, then focus on actual farming—crop strategies, mutations, and pet optimization matter infinitely more than hunting codes.
Check back monthly for updates, but don’t expect game-changing rewards.
