Citron Labs is an area in Plants vs. Zombies: Suburban Rangers. It is the 2nd one unlocked in the game. The gimmick is that it is Night Time, so plants won't function properly doing the dark nights of the lab. Lucky for you, Mushrooms work well during the night. This area has 14 levels (including a Boss fight at level 15).
Gimmick[]
The gimmick of Citron Labs is that most of your offensive plants will not be functioning properly. As well as it's night, Mushrooms will be boosted. Since that will be there, Mushroom will be your primary offense while battling zombies.
Description[]
"Welcome to Citron Labs! It seems the night has made the plants sleepy, and awaken the true Mushrooms! It looks like zombies what to take the precious citronic acid for themselves! It looks like they need a hero to stop those thieves with the power of night itself!"

Level 2-10[]
Penny: Did you know there is a Mushroom that reproduces in a very fast pace?
Crazy Dave: Stop it Penny! We need to fight zombies, not listen to educational stuff!

Crazy Dave: Really? Penny, you're finally becoming me!
Penny: ...
Crazy Dave: Okay, not really.
Level 2-13[]
Penny: Oh no! The zombies are growing in a large amounts!
Crazy Dave: We need some power against these things!
Penny: I believe we have Shadow-Shroom. He'll poison zombies and its poison will spread to other zombies, somewhat slowly make them deteriate.
Crazy Dave: I hope Shadow-Shroom gives them a bad case of the Poisons!
Penny:...
Level 2-15[]
Dr. Zomboss: Darn it, you bafoons! Why won't you surrender your precious cans of citronic acid?
Crazy Dave: The only citronic acid you will be getting is a plasma ball! Especially to your face!
Penny: I see that we have not surrendered them. Can't you see that we won't?
Dr. Zomboss: Well then. Prepare to attack my latest invention, the Plantronic Aim-Bot!
Crazy Dave: Oh noes! Peas, Spores, and Poison!
Penny: Yikes! I hope the plants can fight their match.
Crazy Dave: I used to see this guy who looked exactly like me, and did everything I did. I got really mad and I punched him in the face and he turned to glass shards for some reason! I think they can do it!
Penny: Okay, User Dave.
