First, get yourself comfy with Scratch's basics. Then, lay out your plan. You'll need to create sprites for both plants and zombies, each with their own abilities. Use variables for health, speed, and damage. For the plants, code them to shoot at zombies when in range. For the zombies, make them move towards the plants and reduce health upon contact. Don’t forget to add a sun currency system for buying plants. There are tons of detailed tutorials on YouTube that can help guide you step by step. It's like assembling a digital puzzle, have fun with it!

Just copy some existing Scratch project and tweak it. Why reinvent the wheel?

Keep it simple. Start with one plant and one zombie type. Understand the code behind them interacting. Expand from there. Overcomplicating early will just lead to frustration.
