Plan your next Greenhouse: Tidy Up! session
Our independent guide breaks down each core element of Greenhouse: Tidy Up! so you can refine techniques, compare approaches, and notice subtle efficiencies that improve your organization runs without relying on undocumented tricks.
01 / THE GUIDE
Clue‑Based Sorting
Track how often a single clue (color, name, or species) leads to a correct placement versus using multiple clues, then adjust your sorting priority based on the most reliable indicators.
- Check multiple clues before moving a plant to reduce misplacements.
- Group similar items together to streamline the sorting flow.
02 / THE GUIDE
Skill Timing
Run a batch using Gather first, then repeat with Spotlight before Gather. Record the time each method takes to see which sequence speeds up overall placement.
- Unlock Spotlight early to locate items quickly.
- Combine Gather with Auto‑Place for rapid batch organization.
03 / THE GUIDE
Route Mapping
Sketch the greenhouse layout and plot your movement path during a timed run. Compare this route to top leaderboard players to identify potential shortcuts.
- Time a few runs to spot bottlenecks before checking the leaderboard.
- Observe top players’ routes for possible shortcuts.
04 / THE GUIDE
Controller vs. Gamepad Efficiency
Play two identical sorting sessions, one with a controller and one with alternative input. Measure completion times and note comfort levels to decide which method suits you best.
- Try both controller and other inputs to see which feels faster for gathering items.
- If movement feels imprecise, try a different input method instead.
05 / THE GUIDE
Pause‑Plan Technique
Before resuming, use pause to plan the next ten placements. Track whether this deliberate planning reduces misplacements and improves overall speed.
- Save before tackling a large batch of placements to avoid losing progress.
- Use pause to plan your next sorting route.
