Weather in Grow a Garden is more than just background scenery — it’s the lifeblood of your farm’s progress. Each weather shift can supercharge your crops, trigger rare mutations, or unlock massive sell multipliers (up to 150x). Some occur naturally, while others are limited-time or even admin-triggered spectacles that change the entire island.
How the Weather System Works
- Global synchronization: Weather affects all servers simultaneously.
- Mutation triggers: Each weather can apply specific crop mutations that multiply fruit sell prices.
- Durations: Most last 3–5 minutes; longer events (like Night, Bee Swarm, Blood Moon) can last 10 minutes.
- Admin events: Developers occasionally trigger unique events before updates or during community celebrations.
