In Grow a Garden, mutations are special versions of crops that appear under certain conditions or randomly. These mutations increase the crop’s value, change its appearance, and can sometimes stack with others for even more valuable results. Here’s a guide on every mutation currently in the game.
All Mutation Types in Roblox Grow a Garden
Gold Mutation
- Value Multiplier: ×20

- Notes: Very rare, and extremely valuable when combined with others
Big (Overgrown) Mutation
- Value Multiplier: ×1 (no bonus)
- How to Trigger: Random, more common with certain sprinklers

Choc Mutation

- How to Trigger: Easter event only, by placing a Chocolate Sprinkler next to a multi-use plant
- Notes: Seasonal mutation, only active during the Easter event
Mutation Stacking
Some mutations can appear together on a single fruit, multiplying their effects:
- Wet + Gold: ×2 × ×20 = ×40
- Wet + Rainbow: ×2 × ×50 = ×100
- Wet + Shocked + Gold: ×2 × ×50 × ×20 = ×2,000
- Wet + Shocked + Rainbow: ×2 × ×50 × ×50 = ×5,000
Stacked mutations are rare but can make a huge difference in crop value.
How to make the most of mutations
- Watch the weather: Rain and thunderstorms increase the chances of Wet and Shocked mutations so keep an eye on your most valuable fruits during this period.
- Use better sprinklers: Advanced and Godly Sprinklers can increase your chances of mutations so make sure to use the Gear shop to purchase them whenever required.
- Seasonal events: Participate in limited-time events (such as the Easter event) to access exclusive mutations like Choc.
- Focus on multi-harvest crops: These crops are compatible with more mutations and can be harvested multiple times.
