During the mid-game, use his [[Fertilizer]] onto [[Banana Research Facility (BTD6)|Banana Research Facility]] and [[Banana Central (BTD6)|Banana Central]] on modes that enable cash generation, elsewhere build the four [[Pet Rabbit]]s for efficient cleanup. In Boss Events that require [[Rejuv Potion]] for Tier 2 Boss, buy level 11 on round 55 so he stores 2 Rejuvs before round 60 begins.

Towards the late-game, conserving items and saving enough money for important supports outside his shop is important. In [[CHIMPS]], sometimes Geraldo must be placed later on Advanced and Expert Maps, so he times his level 20 restock during the 90s (rounds 92 and 98 are typical for the refresh). [[Rejuv Potion]], [[Genie Bottle]] (hyperdense rounds, DDTs, single-target), and [[Creepy Idol]] are the main carries for late-game if not considering income. [[See Invisiblity Potion|Camo Potion]] can be considered for a range buff and extra DDT damage. His upgraded Shooty Turrets can be useful on maps with separated lanes (e.g. [[Dark Dungeons]]).

Geraldo should not be considered for deep Freeplay. In cash-generating deep Freeplay runs, his items are too slow to restock, the extra 9 max degrees for Paragons is negligible, and he's outclassed by the benefits of [[Ezili (BTD6)|Ezili]] and [[Adora (BTD6)|Adora]]. In deep Freeplay CHIMPS, his items demand cash, which limits saveups of expensive supports such as Temples or additional towers that have permanent DPS.

*Timing the round to place Geraldo matters, especially for his Level 20 stock refresh. In game modes with cash generation, cash can buy his levels quickly, making the initial placement timing matter less.

*[[Worn Hero's Cape]] helps compress Super Monkeys, mainly [[Sun Avatar (BTD6)|Sun Avatar]]s. However, ultrabuffed [[Bloonjitsu (BTD6)|Bloonjitsu]]s are often more efficient.

*[[Jar of Pickles]] is niche, but a worthwhile support if used correctly.
