What are Mutations?

Crop mutations are rare genetic variations in plants, resulting in unique traits like increased yield, vibrant colors, or special abilities. They’re a core part of Grow A Garden strategy.

How to Trigger Them

Mutations depend on factors like weather, soil quality, rare fertilizers, and crop proximity. Experimentation is key to unlocking them! Sprinklers and pets like Moon Cats can boost chances.

Benefits of Mutations

Mutated crops offer higher market value, increased resources, new crafting recipes, and garden bonuses, essential for advanced gameplay.

Main Mutation Types
