This quest focuses on the Core plant Primal Potato Mine and was offered between May 25, 2022 and June 1, 2022.

Primal Potato Mine is a member of the Bombard-Mint family.
Costs 50 Sun
Takes five (5) seconds to arm. (4 seconds at level 2 and 3 seconds at level 5)
When triggered, Primal Potato Mine will do 2,400 damage in a 3x3 area. (2,800 at level 2 and 3,200 at level 6)
When given plant food, Primal Potato Mine will instantly arm as well as duplicate its instantly armed self to two (2) random tiles.

What an amazing plant. This is a Core Plant as well meaning every player unlocks it during the Jurassic Marsh levels so everyone can easily obtain this plant. Does enough damage to eliminate most zombies in a decent (3x3) area. Only high level zombies and Gargantuars can survive the explosion and even then, they would take significant damage.

Bottom Line - this is one plant one needs to consider for almost every level.

Potato Mines do not eliminate Octo-zombie.
Stall will get you the bonus but not clear the level.
Best bet is watering perk so Stallia and Iceberg Lettuce recharge faster and you can keep zombies at bay.
