Rot Mutation Guide
Description: Rotting decay
How to Get: Mandrake pet mutation
Multiplier Effect: The Rot mutation multiplies base crop selling value by ×8. A crop worth 1,000 coins reaches 8,000 coins before weight scaling.

⚡ In-Game Multiplier Impact (Rot ×8 Benchmark)
Verified Test DataOn a baseline 10 kg crop (100x weight multiplier), applying Rot (×8) increases a 100-coin base crop (e.g. Apple) from 10,000 base coins to 80,000 coins. While an accessible mid-tier mutation, combining Rot with secondary soil boosts exponentially elevates profit.

✓ Tested in-game| Crop | Base Value | With Rot | Profit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🥕 Carrot | 10 | 80 | +700% |
| 🥔 Potato | 15 | 120 | +700% |
| 🍅 Tomato | 20 | 160 | +700% |
| 🌽 Corn | 25 | 200 | +700% |
| 🧅 Onion | 30 | 240 | +700% |
| 🧄 Garlic | 35 | 280 | +700% |
🔍 How to Trigger & Optimize Rot
To obtain the Rot mutation in Grow A Garden, mandrake pet mutation. Because mutations stack multiplicatively, pairing Rot (×8) with secondary soil fertilizers or friend boost multipliers yields exponential returns compared to unmutated plots.
