Chill Out
Feel the rhythm, feel the rhyme, you've only one level to destroy 3 bobsleds, it's Jalapeno time!

Strategy:


This can be completed by either playing the Pool level in Quick Play where there is a Zombie Bobsled Team or play Bobsled Bonanza in the Mini Games. To complete Bobsled Bonanza, see this guide. In the Quick Play Menu, sometimes there is only one Bobsled Team coming so you would not have the chance to kill three Bobsleds. I recommend playing the Bobsled Bonanza, it is guaranteed you would kill 3 Bobsleds! :)

1. Here is the list of plants: Sunflower, Potato Mine, Peashooter, Jalapeno Plant, Imitator (Jalapeno Plant), Squash, Spike Weed, and Spike Rock. Continue planting the whole second lane with Sunflowers little by little.
2. Plant Sunflower on the first row before the first zombie arrives. You'll need a lot of sun for the Jalapeno Plant, Spike weed and Spike rock.
3. When a Zomboni arrives, use the squash, you need not to waste 125 sun (cost of Jalapeno Plant) for a Zomboni. When the Zombie Bobsled Team arrives, it is the time you use a Jalapeno Plant.
4. After killing the Zombie Bobsled Team and removing the ice lane, immediately put a Spike weed at the very last row in the lane you planted your Jalapeno Plant in.
5. If you saved enough sun, immediately put the Spike rock on Spike weed.
6. It is recommended that Spike Rocks are not planted on the last row for the further two lanes. This is to give chance to the Zomboni to make ice lanes where Bobsleds can run onto. This way, you will have the chance to kill 3 Bobsleds or more! It is up to your preference. Anyway, you can always plant a Spike Rock at the very last rows. Just a reminder, use the Jalapeno Plant to kill the Bobsleds!
7. While doing this stuff, simultaneously plant Peashooters on the third, fourth and fifth row bit by bit depending on the need. Potato Mine can also be used on regular zombies if you are saving sun.
8. Just remember #3, Zomboni = Squash, Bobsled Team or Bobsled + Zomboni = Jalapeno Plant.
9. If you finished planting Spike rock on every lane, you need not worry about Zomboni or Bobsled Team destroying your formation.

Below is the final formation of plants I ended the level with.

Below is the final formation of plants I ended the level with. Note that the two Spike rock planted on further lanes are not planted on the very last row. This formation is specifically designed to get the Chill Out Achievement, see here why.

How to Complete Zombologist Achievement in Plants Vs. Zombies (iPod Touch)

Zombologist
Discover the Yeti Zombie.

I have observed that the Yeti Zombie appears whenever you play the Bobsled Bonanza Mini Game and any levels where there is ice. Levels such as there is  Zomboni and Zombie Bobsled Team. You can find these levels in Adventure and Quick Play > Pool level > with the Zombie Bobsled Team. If you haven't seen the Yeti Zombie yet, here's what it looks like! :)

How to Complete Sol Invictus Achievement in Plants vs. Zombies (iPod Touch)

Sol Invictus
Complete Last Stand with 2,000 sun remaining.








Other Achievements:

 

 

After several attempts, I finally got it! Yey!

Strategy:


I discovered that the best way to achieve this is to leave the other lanes blank. This can be done by putting Garlic in two lanes on the sides.

1. The list of plants I chose is: Lily Pad, Repeater, Torch, Magnet-shroom, Coffee Bean, Garlic, Tall Nut, Tangle Kelp, and Squash. Below is the initial arrangement of the plants. Note that I still have 150 suns to spare. However, 2,000 sun are required when the fifth flag finished not every end of a flag. You get 250 suns after each flag.

2. The consecutive Garlics are for the  Pole Vaulting Zombies. This will keep them away from eating your Magnet-shrooms which are very important by the way. Keep the Tall Nuts away as possible from the last row so that they would be destroyed immediately.
3. Just replace the Garlics when eaten.
4. As you continue and gain more sun, add two other Repeaters and two Magnet-shrooms. The final arrangement of plants is shown below.
5. You can use the Tangle Kelp and Squash for emergency. :)

How to Complete Chili Free Achievement in Plants Vs. Zombies (iPod Touch)

Chili Free
Complete Column Like You See 'Em without using Jalapeno Plant.








Other Achievements:

 




The objective is simple. Just finish Column Like You See 'Em without using jalapeno Plant. However, it is pretty hard to achieve this. I have tried many times to complete this achievement. Maybe it is around my 30th time when I finally completed it. It was a little out of luck though ;). But I have seen how I got lucky.

Strategy 1:
Just make sure that you have enough Melon-pults,  squash and of course, Flower Pots for the third wave. At least, 2 melon-pults and 1 Squash. Your plants will most likely be eaten during the second wave.


Strategy 2:
This is how I won, I tried my best to defend the house during the second wave. Kill the Gargantuars during the second wave immediately using Squash so that they won't be able to kill your plants anymore. It is best to use a series of pumpkins to prevent the Ladder Zombies from reaching all your plants. The best way to kill the Gargantuars of the third wave is through the lawn mowers.  Do not let the zombies of the second wave touch the lawn mower until you cannot see all the Gargantuars of the third wave appearing. In this way the Gargantuars of third wave will be killed by the lawn mowers together with the zombies of the second wave, the only problem you have left are minor zombies which can be killed by 1-2 Melon-pults.

(Trying to take video of this. I do not get to win always since the arrangement of the plants coming is random.)

Strategy 3:
Or if you are lucky and there are remaining plants after the second wave, just kill the Gargantaurs of the third wave immediately by squash and add up some Melon-pults.

Hope it helped. Goodluck getting that very frustrating achievement! ☺

Note: Luckily, I also got Monster Mash and Lawn Mower Man Achievemenst here because of the massive number of zombies.
