Roblox Grow a Garden Mutation Guide (August 2025)

In Grow a Garden! Mutations are special changes that make your crops worth more money when you sell them. They also make your plants look cool with sparkles, colors, or other effects. This guide will explain what mutations are, how to get them, and how they help you earn more in the game. Let’s get started!

What Are Mutations?

Mutations are special boosts that make your crops more valuable. For example, a normal apple might sell for a few Sheckles (the game’s money), but a mutated apple could be worth a lot more! Mutations happen because of weather, special events, pets, or just random luck. They also change how your crops look, like making them glow or sparkle.

Some mutations can stack, meaning you can have more than one on a single crop. This can make your crops super valuable! For example, a crop with two mutations might sell for 100 times its normal price.

How to Get Mutations

Mutations happen in a few ways:

• Weather: Rain, snow, or thunderstorms can add mutations to your crops.
• Events: Special events, like a Meteor Shower or Blood Moon, can give rare mutations.
• Pets: Some pets, like the Chicken Zombie, can add mutations to your crops.
• Tools: Items like sprinklers or sprays can cause mutations.
• Random Chance: Some mutations, like Gold or Rainbow, happen randomly while your crops grow.

Tip: You need to be online for mutations to happen. If you’re offline, your crops won’t get mutated.

List of Mutations and How to Get Them

Here’s a list of the main mutations in Grow a Garden, how much they boost your crop’s value, and how to get them.

All Crop Mutations

Here’s every known crop mutation as of August 9, 2025, with their sell multipliers, how to get them, and what they look like. Stack them for crazy profits!

Notes:

• Exclusive Groups: Some mutations can’t stack:
  • Temperature: Wet, Chilled, Frozen (Frozen is best at 10x).
  • Heat: Burnt, Cooked (Cooked is better at 25x).
  • Growth: Gold, Rainbow (Rainbow is best at 50x).
• Evolving Mutations: Amber → OldAmber (24 hours) → AncientAmber (2–3 days).
• Event Mutations: High-value ones like Voidtouched (135x) or Dawnbound (150x) are admin-only and rare.
• Stacking Formula: Total Value = Base Crop Value × Growth Mutation (e.g., Rainbow 50x) × (1 + Sum of Other Mutations – Number of Mutations). Example: Tomato (1000 Sheckles) with Rainbow (50x) + Shocked (100x) + Moonlit (2x) = 1000 × 50 × (1 + 100 + 2 – 3) = 5,000,000 Sheckles.

All Pet Mutations

Pet mutations give your pets cool abilities, like adding crop mutations or boosting XP. Use the Mutation Machine (500 million Sheckles, 1 hour) on a level 50+ pet. Here are the 12 known pet mutations:

Notes:

• Top Picks: Ascended (Dawnbound, 150x) and Rainbow (50x) are the best for profits.
• Reset Cost: Mutating resets pets to level 1, so pick high-level pets carefully.
• Pet Synergy: Use pets like Butterfly (Rainbow) or Ankylosaurus (Ascended) with high-value crops.

Note: Some mutations, like Disco or Voidtouched, only happen during special events run by the game’s admins. Keep an eye out for these rare events!

Tips to Get More Mutations

Here are some easy tips to get more mutations and make more money:

• Plant Lots of Crops: The more crops you have, the better your chances of getting random mutations like Gold or Rainbow.
• Use Multi-Harvest Crops: Crops like Dragon Fruit or Sunflowers can grow multiple times, giving you more chances for mutations.
• Stay Online: Mutations only happen when you’re in the game, so stay active during weather changes or events.
• Use Pets: Pets like the Chicken Zombie or Scarlet Macaw can add mutations to your crops.
• Get Tools: Items like the Lightning Rod, Star Caller, or Honey Sprinkler can help you get rare mutations.
• Watch the Weather: Check for Rain, Frost, or Thunderstorms, as they trigger mutations like Wet, Chilled, or Shocked.
• Join Events: Events like Meteor Shower or Blood Moon give you a chance at super valuable mutations.

How to Spot Mutations

Mutations are easy to notice because they change how your crops look. For example:

• Gold crops shine with sparkles.
• Rainbow crops change colors with a halo.
• Shocked crops glow brightly with electric effects.

You can also hover over a crop to see its mutations in the game’s tooltip.

Stacking Mutations

• Wet + Chilled can turn into Frozen (10x).

Note: Some mutations, like Gold and Rainbow, can’t stack together. You’ll only get one or the other.
