The game takes place over 5 rounds, with each round consisting of 3 phases.
In this phase, players take turns placing action markers and executing the actions selected.
This action is taken on your player mat. Follow these steps for this action:
The game ends after the plant breeding phase of round 5. Each player may harvest any completed pea plant cards.
The player with the most points wins. If tied, the player with the most completed pea plants wins. If there's still a tie, the tied players share the victory.
These provide a 1 time benefit and are kept in hand until played. Discard these once played. These can be played any time during the working phase and do not replace your normal action. Tool cards with an → may only be played when the condition to the left of the arrow is met.
Seed Bag: Draw
5 pea plant cards from the deck, keep 2, and discard the rest.
Watering
Funnel: Validate (cover) any 1 trait. This must be played
immediately when received!
Dissertation:
Pay 1 coin to set a phenotype research goal.
Flower Pot:
Play next to your player mat and immediately take 1 pea plant
card from the nursery or deck and place it on the flower pot.
This acts as another plot in your garden until the plant is
harvested, after which the pot is discarded.
Graft
Knife: Play when taking a die to immediately take another die.
Place the additional die on graft knife.
Rake: Play when taking
a die to validate (cover) any 1 trait of the die color instead
of using the die as normal.
Pollen
Brush: Play when validating (covering) a trait to cover every
copy of the same genotype on your pea plants.
Hand Lens,
Pocket Watch, Garden Line: Play when taking the parent gene,
1st shift, or 2nd shift (respectively) to gain 2 coins.
Grant: Play when
purchasing a research upgrade to discount it by 2 coins.
Assistants provide ongoing benefits. Assistants showing the
symbol may only be used
once per round. Tap the card to show it's used. Assistant
cards with an → may only be played when the condition to the left
of the arrow is met.

phase, but you must pay 1 coin to use them

of 1.
Sister May:
Whenever you validate (cover) a trait, you may validate every
copy of the same genotype on your pea plants.

plant that automatically refills. When hired, immediately take
