Grow A Garden Mutations Explained: Full List & Value Multipliers (2026)
June 12, 2026 · 1 min read
Introduction
There are now over 90 mutations in Grow a Garden, split across three groups: Growth (×), Temperature (+) and Environmental (+).
This guide is part of our Grow a Garden knowledge base. If you want to put what you read here straight to use, head to the Grow A Garden Calculator on the homepage.
Growth mutations (multiplicative)
- Gold (×20) – appears at random as the crop grows.
- Rainbow (×50) – the rarest, biggest single boost in the game.
Temperature mutations
Wet (+1), Chilled (+1), Drenched (+4), Frozen (+9). Apply via sprinklers and weather.
Environmental mutations
This is where most of your stacking happens — examples include Pollinated (+2), Honey Glazed (+4), Cooked (+9), Shocked (+99), Celestial (+119), Disco (+124), Voidtouched (+134), Dawnbound (+149).
How stacking works
All temperature + environmental mutations add to a single multiplier pool. The final formula uses (1 + sum), so 5 mutations worth +99 each = ×496. Multiply that by a Rainbow growth and you’re looking at ×24,800.
You can test any combo in our Mutation Stacking Calculator.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I have Gold and Rainbow at once?
No — growth mutations are mutually exclusive. You’ll get one or the other (or neither).
Which is the best mutation to chase?
Dawnbound (+149) currently gives the largest single bump in the environmental pool.
