How Mutations Work
In Grow a Garden, mutations apply value multipliers that enhance your plants. Unlike some games, these multipliers stack additively rather than multiplicatively.
Mutation Formula
The formula is: Total Multiplier = 1 + Σ(mutation.ValueMulti - 1)
This means each mutation contributes (ValueMulti - 1) toward your total multiplier.
Most Valuable Mutations
Some of the most sought-after mutations include:
- Celestial: +2.0x value
- Rainbow: +1.8x value
- Shocked: +1.5x value
- Frozen: +1.3x value
Combining Mutations
A single plant can carry multiple mutations. For example, a plant with Celestial (+2.0x) and Rainbow (+1.8x) would have a total multiplier of 1 + (2.0 - 1) + (1.8 - 1) = 2.8x.
