One of the most exciting and profitable mechanics in Grow a Garden is the ability to get special versions of your crops called mutations. Learning how to understand and get mutations is the key to earning massive amounts of money and progressing in the game. These mutations can dramatically increase the sale value of your fruits and vegetables, turning a standard harvest into a huge payday.

🌧️ How Weather Events Trigger Mutations
Many mutations are tied directly to in-game weather events. For example, when it’s raining in the game, your fruits have a 50% chance to get the ‘Wet’ mutation, which provides a boost to its value. More valuable mutations come from rarer weather. A thunderstorm can grant the valuable ‘Shocked’ mutation, while the ‘Sundried’ mutation, which has a massive 85x selling multiplier, can only be obtained during a Heatwave event. Paying attention to the weather is crucial for mutation hunting.
💧 How to Use Sprinklers to Force Mutations
You don’t have to wait for the weather to change to get mutations. By placing sprinklers around your crops, you can automate the process and increase your chances. To get mutations like ‘Wet,’ ‘Shocked,’ or ‘Frozen,’ you can place advanced or master sprinklers around a patch of high-tier crops and then leave the game idle for 30 to 120 minutes. When you return, many of your crops will have mutated, ready for a profitable harvest.
🐝 How Pets and Special Events Create Unique Mutations
Some of the rarest and most valuable mutations can only be obtained through special means. For instance, the ‘Pollinated’ mutation, which gives a 3x multiplier, can be obtained during a Bee Swarm event or by using Bee pets. The ultra-rare ‘Voidtouched’ mutation, with a staggering 135x multiplier, can only be obtained during an admin-exclusive Blackhole event. These special mutations are the ultimate goal for any serious farmer looking to maximize their earnings.
