Details
Enables planting on any surface including non-soil tiles. The plant placed inside gains a permanent 15% bonus to all damage output. Generates 10 sun every 30 seconds as a minor economy supplement. Does not add extra toughness unlike standard Flower Pot.
XXS Pot is a miniature Flower Pot variant that costs 25 Sun, enables planting on any surface, and grants a 15% damage bonus to whatever plant is grown inside it. Unlike standard Flower Pot, the XXS Pot damage bonus makes it valuable in standard soil stages too, not just non-soil surfaces. The 15% damage amplification scales with the base damage of the inner plant: a Melon-pult with 175 Sun damage becomes 201 damage with the bonus. In Survival Mode, place XXS Pots under your highest-damage attackers for a free 15% output increase per plant. In Endless Mode, amplifying five Melon-pults with XXS Pots increases total lane DPS significantly at just 125 Sun total investment. At 25 Sun each, the damage bonus pays for itself quickly through increased attacker efficiency.
XXS Pot has no direct combat role. Its value is amplifying the inner plant damage output. Most effective under high-damage plants like Melon-pult, Snipea, or Cob Cannon where the 15% bonus represents the largest absolute DPS gain.
✓ Strengths
25 Sun cost is the minimum for any plant with a functional buff effect
15% damage bonus scales with the inner plant's base damage
Enables non-soil tile planting same as standard Flower Pot
Minor sun generation of 10 every 30 seconds adds minimal economy
5-second recharge allows quick setup across all lanes
✗ Weaknesses
300 toughness is very low and provides no added protection unlike standard Flower Pot
Does not add toughness to the inner plant unlike standard Flower Pot
30-second sun generation interval is very slow for the small 10 sun drops
Any zombie destroying the pot removes the inner plant and its bonus simultaneously
Useless if the inner plant is a utility or economy plant with minimal base damage
1
Always place under your highest-damage attacker for maximum absolute gain from the 15% bonus
2
In Survival Mode, place XXS Pots under all five Melon-pults for a free DPS boost across the entire grid
3
Protect with Wall-nut in front so zombies cannot reach and destroy the pot and inner plant together
4
In Last Stand, all preset sun should include XXS Pots under every major attacker
5
Do not waste under economy or utility plants where the damage bonus provides no benefit
