Grow a Garden 2 Mutations Guide
Last updated:
Mutations are special transformations that multiply what your crops sell for. In Grow a Garden 2, a crop's final sell value is its base price × size scale × mutation multiplier — so landing a high-tier mutation on a heavy crop is how fortunes are made.

How Mutations Work
- Every crop carries at most one mutation at a time; it is rolled when the crop updates or on harvest.
- Standard crops have a 1% base chance to mutate at harvest, but only low-tier mutations can trigger naturally.
- Gold Seeds and Rainbow Seeds guarantee a mutation on whatever they grow into.
- High-tier mutations are locked to global weather and celestial events — keep an eye on the event cycle.
