guide
A daily priority guide for deciding whether the next session should focus on crop progress or pet support testing.
Short answer
In Grow a Garden today, farm crops first if your route is still unstable; test pets first only when crop progress is stable and support is the next bottleneck.
This is the fastest direct answer for readers who want the result first and the longer route logic second.
Use these pages when the short answer turns into a more specific choice.

| Stable crop loop | Pets | Support may be bottleneck | Changing crop too soon |
| Recent balance update | Updates | Freshness matters | Old assumptions |
| Two close support picks | Tool | Matcher can help | Broad testing |

Editor notes
If the base route still feels shaky, crop progress is the safer first focus. Pet testing works better after the crop loop has something stable to support.
If the crop route is already repeatable but sessions still feel awkward, a pet test may solve the next bottleneck.
Changing crops and pets in the same test makes the result hard to trust. Adjust one layer first, then compare.
