Are your crops glowing at night? Well, you’re not hallucinating—that’s the new Moonlit mutation in Grow A Garden. And it’s one of the easiest ways to boost your income in the game! Much like the Wet mutation that happens when it rains, this one only kicks in at nighttime.
Here’s everything to know about the Moonlit mutation and how to make the most of it after the Lunar Glow update.
How To Get Moonlit Mutation In Grow A Garden
To get the Moonlit mutation in Grow A Garden, you need to wait for a Night event, which kicks off roughly every 20 minutes. When it hits, the map goes dark and a few of your crops will randomly gain the Moonlit glow—but only while the Lunar Glow event is active!
Like the Chilled mutation, Moonlit Fruit are worth 2x their original value. You’ll also need them to obtain Lunar Points to progress the Lunar Glow reward track. So, it’s worth the effort to farm Moonlit crops more efficiently. That being said, you should grab yourself a Night Staff!
Once placed in your garden, Night Staffs guarantee that six random crops nearby will get the Moonlit mutation during the Night event. You can place multiple Night Staffs to cover more ground, and stacking them will boost your chances across different patches of your garden.
You don’t need to do anything special to trigger the Night event (it happens on its own). But to make the most of it, plant high-value seeds like Moon Blossom or Starfruit before night falls. That way, when the Moonlit mutation hits, you’re making the biggest profit possible.
What Are Moonlit Fruit Worth In Grow A Garden?
Fruit with the Moonlit mutation are worth double their regular sell price, making them some of the most profitable crops in Grow A Garden. Here are a few examples of Moonlit fruit values (approximate base prices shown first):
- Moon Blossom (35,000 Sheckles) → 70,000 Sheckles
- Starfruit (22,500 Sheckles) → 45,000 Sheckles
- Glowshroom (18,000 Sheckles) → 36,000 Sheckles
- Mint (6,500 Sheckles) → 13,000 Sheckles
- Cacao (10,000 Sheckles) → 20,000 Sheckles
The Moonlit mutation is not just a visual effect, but one of the best passive income boosters in the game. This is especially true when paired with rich soil, watering boosts, and auto collectors. If you’re playing smart, the Night event is a literal gold mine.
