How Crop Mutations Work in Grow a Garden

🧬 Mutation Types

  • β€’ Growth: Silver, Gold, Rainbow (base multipliers)
  • β€’ Environmental: Weather and condition mutations
  • β€’ Limited: Event-specific mutations
  • β€’ Admin: Rare admin weather mutations

πŸ“Š Price Formula

Growth Γ— (1 + Ξ£Mutations - Count)

Growth mutations provide base multiplier, environmental mutations stack additively

⭐ Growth Mutations

Growth mutations are the foundation of crop value in Grow a Garden. Only one growth mutation can be applied per crop.

πŸ₯ˆ Silver

Γ—5
10% Natural Chance

Shining silver appearance with chiming sound when harvested

  • β€’ Silver Fertilizer gear
  • β€’ Crystal Beam weather
  • β€’ Natural growth chance

πŸ₯‡ Gold

Γ—20
1% Natural Chance

Golden color with shimmering sound effect

  • β€’ Dragonfly pet application
  • β€’ Golden Bee pet (harvest)
  • β€’ Natural growth chance

🌈 Rainbow

Γ—50
0.1% Ultra Rare

Cycles through rainbow colors with particles and rainbow on top

  • β€’ Butterfly pet (5+ mutations)
  • β€’ Natural growth chance
  • β€’ Rainbow removes other mutations

🌿 Environmental Mutations

Environmental mutations are triggered by weather, conditions, or specific items. These can be combined for massive multipliers.

πŸ’§ Wet

Γ—2

Dripping water particles

Sources: Rain, Thunderstorm, Sprinklers, Sea Turtle pet

πŸ’¨ Windstruck

Γ—2

Wind particles around crop

Sources: Windy weather, Pterodactyl pet, Windy pets

πŸŒ™ Moonlit

Γ—2

Purple coloration

Sources: Night weather, Tanuki pet, Night Staff

🍯 Pollinated

Γ—3

Yellow glow with gas particles

Sources: Bee Swarm weather, Bee pets, Nectar Staff

❄️ Frozen

Γ—10

Encased in ice block

Combo: Wet/Drenched + Chilled mutations combined

⚑ Shocked

Γ—100

Neon glow effect

Sources: Lightning strikes, Crystal Beam, Shocked pets

πŸ’Ž Ultra Rare Mutations

The highest value mutations in Grow a Garden with incredible multipliers and rare obtainment methods.

πŸ”¬ Mutation Combinations & Examples

Price Calculation Formula

Total Multiplier = Growth Mutation Γ— (1 + Ξ£Environmental Mutations - Number of Mutations)

Example Combinations:

Rainbow + Shocked + Frozen:
50 Γ— (1 + 100 + 10 - 2) = 5,450Γ—
Gold + Shocked + Wet:
20 Γ— (1 + 100 + 2 - 2) = 2,020Γ—
Maximum Theoretical:
Rainbow + All Mutations = 158,550Γ—

Mutation Rules:

  • β€’ Only one growth mutation (Silver/Gold/Rainbow)
  • β€’ Environmental mutations can stack
  • β€’ Some mutations combine (Wet + Chilled = Frozen)
  • β€’ Certain mutations replace others
  • β€’ Admin mutations require special weather

Pro Mutation Tips for Grow a Garden

🎯 Mutation Strategy

  • β€’ Focus on high-value combinations like Shocked + Frozen
  • β€’ Use Lightning Rods during thunderstorms for Shocked
  • β€’ Combine Wet + Chilled for powerful Frozen mutation
  • β€’ Save mutation sprays for high-value crops

⚑ Advanced Tips

  • β€’ Watch for admin weather events for rare mutations
  • β€’ Plan pet placement for automatic mutation application
  • β€’ Understand which mutations can combine vs. replace
  • β€’ Use Magnifying Glass to check values before harvesting

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I have multiple growth mutations on one crop?

No, only one growth mutation (Silver, Gold, or Rainbow) can be applied per crop. If you apply a new growth mutation, it will replace the existing one.

How do I get the Frozen mutation?

Frozen mutation is created by combining Wet (or Drenched) with Chilled mutations on the same crop. This removes both original mutations and creates Frozen with a Γ—10 multiplier.

What's the highest possible crop value?

The theoretical maximum is 158,550Γ— multiplier with Rainbow growth mutation plus all available environmental mutations. However, this is extremely difficult to achieve due to mutation conflicts and availability.
