Does Grow a Garden keep growing offline?
Yes. The creator confirms that your garden continues growing after you leave. A small before-and-after check can show what that means for the particular crop you planted.

Set up a recognizable test
Choose a distinctive spot
Plant one seed at the end of a row or beside a feature you can recognize. Note the time and what the plant looks like. If the plot is crowded, a screenshot helps you identify the same plant without relying on memory.
Return to the same garden
Compare the crop at both times
After your break, reopen the original experience with the same account. Look for the planted spot before making changes. A visible difference tells you that this crop progressed during that interval. A mature-looking crop can then be checked for a harvest interaction.
Plan the next session
Measure useful intervals
Repeat the check around your usual break length. If a crop was ready after a long break, you have an upper bound for that trial, not its exact growth time. Checking sooner next time will narrow the interval.
Questions and answers
Does every seed finish overnight?
The official description confirms offline growth without giving a universal time to maturity.
Can I use my result as a timer for every crop?
Use it as a reference for the crop and conditions you observed. Keep separate notes for different seeds.
