Grow a Garden Radioactive Mutation guide

Developer Jandel has once again used his admin powers to add a unique event and its associated Mutation in Grow a Garden. Introduced just before the release of the Zen update, the Radioactive Mutation grants a high multiplier to your crops. It can be obtained during a special event where players sacrifice their garden produce to launch a rocket.

Let's take a look at the obtainability and effects of the Radioactive Mutation in Roblox Grow a Garden.

How to get the Radioactive Mutation in Grow a Garden

The Radioactive Mutation is tied to the Radioactive Carrot event in Grow a Garden. It is an admin-spawned event that made its exciting first appearance minutes before the release of the Zen update.

During the event, a carrot-shaped rocket named Radioactive Carrot appears behind the Gear Shop and the Pet Egg Shop. Attached to it is a huge pipe that shows the vessel's fuel. It begins from 0%, but you can increase it by depositing any fruits and vegetables.

Once the fuel reaches 100%, the rocket will launch into the sky and give the Radioactive Mutation. You're guaranteed to get it on one of your crops. However, the crops will receive the Radioactive benefits randomly.

The developer usually provides a heads-up by sending a server-wide message before launching this event. When they do, pick fruits and vegetables from your garden that have low value. You can then use them to fuel the Radioactive Carrot once it spawns on the map.

Effects of the Radioactive Mutation in Grow a Garden

Crops with the Radioactive Mutation have a bright neon green color in Grow a Garden. It is distinct from the visual effects provided by the Infected Mutation, because the latter makes the crop turn a darker shade of green.

Apart from giving an eye-catching hue to crops, the Radioactive Mutation provides an 80x sell value multiplier. As always, the multiplier benefits are stackable. A Radioactive and Windstruck Coconut weighing 13.31 kg will have its value increased by a factor of 82, thus selling for 29,241 Sheckles.

Radioactive's value multiplier surpasses both the recently introduced Infected and Ancient Amber. It is highly profitable, especially if you have a T-Rex and Spinosaurus in your garden. Both dinosaurs can spread the Mutation to other crops and let you sell the harvest for loads of Sheckles.
