Recap[]
The episode starts with Daizy taking good care of her garden. Wubbzy comes by and compliments her gardening skills, Daizy says she has a green thumb. Wubbzy believes her thumb is just like the rest of her fingers, but Daizy explains that having green thumb means that she's really good at gardening. Then Mayor Whoozle comes by and asks Daizy if she can volunteer to grow the City of Wuzzleburg's community garden, and gives her a community garden badge.
Mayor Whoozle shows Daizy the location of the city's community garden. Wubbzy asks Daizy if he can help her do the gardening, but Daizy presumes she can handle it by herself. Wubbzy and Mayor Whoozle left, and Daizy prepares the garden by bringing in the gardening equipment. Daizy first dig out holes, then she fills every hole with seeds(1 each), then she fill every hole with dirt, then put in signs of every crop she's planting, and lastly turns on the tap to water every spot in the garden she fills the holes with. Daizy finishes her community garden preparations for tomorrow, and leaves.
The next day, everybody gathered to see the grand opening of the city's community garden, but when everybody went inside, there's nothing planted. Wubbzy, Widget & Walden saw that Daizy's thumb turned purple, and Walden suggest Daizy to see Doctor Flooey.
Doctor Flooey gives Daizy a checkup, and memos that everything but her kooky purple thumb is okay. Daizy fears that now with a purple thumb, she won't be able to garden ever again. Widget volunteers to help Daizy with the garden.
Back at the Community Garden, Widget shows Daizy the Planter Pal 3000. Widget explains that with the Planter Pal 3000, Daizy can plant the community garden in no time. Widget gives Daizy the controller, but she thinks it's stuck. Daizy suddenly breaks the controller, and the Planter Pal has gone haywire. The Planter Pal made holes on the fence, and put in the plants. The Planter Pal waters a flower from Old Lady Zamboni's hat, and puts Walden, Widget, Wubbzy & Daizy inside the holes. The Planter Pal waters Wubbzy, Daizy, Widget & Walden, breaks the fence and ran away. Daizy sadly believes that she couldn't garden without her green thumb. Walden volunteers to help Daizy.
At Walden's House, Walden has made a fancy formula that will help give Daizy back her gardening talents. He made the first formula and gives it to Daizy, but when she drinks it, it's revealed to be a Crowing Formula. Walden gives Daizy the second formula, but it's revealed to be a Blowing Formula. Walden gives Daisy the third formula, but it's revealed to be a Go-Go-Going Formula. So Walden gives Daizy the Slowing Formula to stop Daizy's insane speed-running. After Daizy drinks the Slowing Formula, her zany running stopped. Daizy sadly states that she still has a purple thumb. Wubbzy volunteers to help Daizy with the garden.
Back at the Community Garden, Daizy gives Wubbzy and explanation of what he should do, and what equipment he needs. Wubbzy decides to do the gardening his way, after he finished, Daizy assumed he missed a step of gardening: filling the holes with seeds. Wubbzy wants to start over again, but Daizy is sadly ready to give up. So Daizy gives Wubbzy her community garden badge and walks away sadly. Wubbzy saw that his thumb is purple too, but then realizes that Daizy's thumb is purple because her thumb is covered in ink from her Community Garden Badge. Daizy turned on the tap and washed off the ink from her thumb with water, but still asks how come her garden didn't grow. Wubbzy found beaver-track footprints and suggest he and Daizy should follow them.
It is revealed that the beavers sneaked in last night, and stolen all the flowers and crops. Daizy is not pleased with the beavers for grand theft, but the beavers aren't even ashamed for their falsehood. Wubbzy complimented to Daizy that she still knows how grow a great garden, and then Daizy decides to grow the biggest garden Wuzzleburg has ever seen.
Back at the Community Garden, it is bigger than before. Madame Zabinga is dancing on the circle of flowers, 2 of the Wuzzleburgians are having a picnic by the waterfall around the flowers, Chef Fritz is picking bacon from the bacon trees, and one Wuzzleburgian kid is flying a kite while running around. Mayor Whoozle thanks Daizy for giving Wuzzleburg a beautiful garden, Daizy walks to Wubbzy and relieved to have her green thumb back. As Wubbzy is also about to congratulate Daizy, he found his entire hand is purple. Daizy thinks that Wubbzy's hand is purple, because he's been eating too many Doodleberries. Wubbzy eats the Doodleberries, and says he sure loves Doodleberries, he laughs ending the episode.
