Chokes all zombies onscreen with a massive ash cloud for five seconds, stunning them all and dealing a total of 25nds over that time. Each zombie has a 5% chance of receiving insta-kill damage, though in this case it's 18nds per second, totalling 90nds.

Strategies
It can deal heavy damage and stall the zombies, but is very expensive, and lacks AoE, so try to back it up with some cheaper AoE plants or additional stalling plants like Snow Peas. It also shoots slowly, which leaves it especially vulnerable if used against fast zombies, however it is very effective against stronger zombies such as Gargantuars, as it can stun the zombie for nearly half of the time and deal quite large amounts of damage. Insta-kill damage is useful against Gargs too, even though the Gargantuar can survive it.

All-in-all, it's kind of like Citron, but with less firepower and a stalling effect, and it shoots more often but still slowly. Use it in a similar way to Citron and you should maximize its effectiveness.
