Fairy Points are the main currency in Grow a Garden’s October 2026 Fairy Event. You’ll need them to buy upgrades from the Fairy Godmother and to repeat the Wishing Well’s five Fairy Favors, which are also one of the best documented ways to earn more points.
It’s easy to get distracted by the biggest upgrade price on the screen, but the event only lasts from October 10 to October 17. The smart move is to start with the cheaper improvements that help you complete more favors, then decide whether to save for another full quest run or invest further in your garden.
How to get Fairy Points in Grow a Garden
Follow the Wishing Well’s Fairy Favors. Bring each requested crop, usually carrying the Glimmering mutation, to the fountain and turn it in. Every completed stage pays Fairy Points, and the well can also offer points as one of its three random reward choices. Interacting with the roaming fairies is another documented way to collect the currency.
All five Fairy Favor point payouts
| Stage | Fairy Points earned | Typical crop pool |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 500 | Strawberry, Blueberry, Orange Tulip, Tomato, Corn, Daffodil |
| 2 | 550 | Tomato, Corn, Daffodil, Watermelon, Pumpkin, Apple, Bamboo, Orange Tulip |
| 3 | 1,200 | Watermelon, Pumpkin, Apple, Bamboo, Coconut, Cactus, Dragon Fruit, Mango, Pepper |
| 4 | 2,300 | Coconut, Cactus, Dragon Fruit, Mango, Grape, Sunbulb, Glowthorn, Mushroom, Pepper, Cacao |
| 5 | 5,000 | Lightshoot, Glowthorn, Grape, Mushroom, Pepper, Cacao, Beanstalk, Ember Lily, Sugar Apple, Burning Bud, Giant Pinecone, Elder Strawberry, Romanesco |
One complete run pays 9,550 Fairy Points. After finishing all five, you can reset the chain for 7,500, leaving 2,050 points from the stage rewards before including any bonus points you pick from the well. Normal Sunbulb, Glowthorn and Lightshoot can count for their favor requests according to current community tables.
Best Fairy Points farming routine
Start by growing a mix of the crops requested in early stages, then keep higher-rarity fruit ready for stages four and five. When fairies visit, harvest the Glimmering produce instead of selling it immediately. A Fairy Targeter placed near the plants you intend to submit can help direct fairy attention, while the Glimmering Radar speeds up collecting mutated fruit.
Work through the complete favor run before starting another. Spending all your time repeating cheap crops won’t unlock the higher Wishing Well reward tiers, and the stage-five payout alone is worth 5,000 points.
What are the four Fairy Godmother upgrades?
You can spend Fairy Points on four different tracks: Glimmer Multiplier, Roaming Fairy Spawn Amount, Fairy Event Duration and Fairy Spawn Amount. Glimmer Multiplier goes from 1x to 2x over ten purchased levels. Duration increases how long the fairy event stays active, while the two spawn-related paths change the number of fairies appearing.
Glimmer Multiplier upgrade costs
| Level | Glimmer bonus | Fairy Points cost |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1.1x | 500 |
| 2 | 1.2x | 1000 |
| 3 | 1.3x | 3000 |
| 4 | 1.4x | 6000 |
| 5 | 1.5x | 9000 |
| 6 | 1.6x | 15000 |
| 7 | 1.7x | 30000 |
| 8 | 1.8x | 60000 |
| 9 | 1.9x | 80000 |
| 10 | 2x | 120000 |
The first five multiplier levels cost 19,500 Fairy Points combined. All ten add up to 324,500. That’s why a few early levels are an achievable improvement, but blindly trying to max the entire track could eat most of your remaining event time.
Which upgrade should you buy first?
For most players, the early Glimmer Multiplier purchases are worth considering first because they’re relatively cheap. More fairies or longer active event windows can help generate more Glimmering fruit too. However, some 2026 community tables disagree on the full cost of all four tracks, so inspect the next price in the Fairy Godmother menu rather than trusting a single grand total.
Should you spend Fairy Points or reset the Wishing Well?
If you’re trying to roll a Manticore, Redcap or Wolpertinger, a reset gives you another chance to reach the later chest offers. If you’re struggling to obtain the right mutated fruit, an upgrade may be more useful first. Don’t drain your balance below the 7,500 reset cost if you intend to complete another questline immediately.
When does Fairy Points farming end?
The returning event is scheduled to end October 17, 2026. Your regular crops can continue growing under the usual game systems, but the one-week Fairy Event reward opportunities have a deadline. Prioritise the rewards that depend on the event rather than assuming the Wishing Well will remain permanently available.
To earn more Fairy Points quickly, finish every favor you can, make use of the roaming fairies and check each reward choice for point bonuses. Treat higher-tier upgrades as long-term investments only if you have enough time left to benefit from them.
