Want crops that look frosty and sell for more? The Chilled mutation applies a 2× sell-value multiplier to mutated crops and gives them a bluish, frosty appearance. Below is a friendly, easy-to-follow guide on what Chilled does, how it looks, and the best ways to obtain it. 🌨️💸
What is the Chilled Mutation?
Effect: Doubles the sell value of the affected crop (2×). It’s one of the weather/environment-type mutations that makes your garden more profitable.
Visuals
Crops with Chilled take on a bluish tint and show frost or snowflake particles around them — easy to spot while you’re farming. ❄️✨
How to Get the Chilled Mutation
-
A. Frost (Snow) Weather Event
What happens: Frost or snow weather happens randomly in the game. You’ll often see a snowflake icon when it’s active. The map gets a colder hue and your character might shiver.
Why it matters: While Frost weather is active, crops have a chance to gain the Chilled mutation naturally — and crop growth speed can increase (roughly +50% during the event).
-
B. Use a Polar Bear Pet 🐻❄️
How it works: Deploy a Polar Bear near your crops. It has an approximate 10% chance every 90 seconds to mutate nearby crops into Chilled or, in certain situations, Frozen.
Pro tip: If the Polar Bear triggers Chilled on an already Wet crop, that Wet → Chilled interaction can become Frozen, which is worth ×10 instead of ×2. That combo is where the big money is. 💰

C. Chilled Mutation Spray (Gear) 🧴
How it works: Use the Chilled Mutation Spray gear to instantly apply the Chilled mutation to a target crop — great when you want control instead of waiting for weather or pet RNG.
Summary Table
| Method | How It Works | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Frost Weather | Wait for Frost/Snow weather to appear naturally | Crops may become Chilled (×2) |
| Polar Bear Pet | Keep pet near crops; chance to mutate every 90s | ~10% to get Chilled or Frozen (on Wet) |
| Chilled Mutation Spray | Use spray gear on chosen crops | Instant Chilled mutation |
Additional Insights
The Frozen mutation (×10) forms when a Wet crop is exposed to Chilled conditions — timing Wet patches with Frost events or Polar Bear activity is one of the most lucrative strategies. Chilled is treated as an environmental/weather-based mutation and is mutually exclusive with Wet, Frozen, and Drenched — only one of those can be active on a crop at a time.
How to Maximize Your Chances
- Prepare a patch of Wet crops (watering + Wet status).
- Watch for Frost weather — it speeds growth and grants natural Chilled chances. ⏱️
- Keep a Polar Bear pet nearby to try for upgrades (Wet → Frozen). 🐾
- Use Chilled Mutation Spray when you want guaranteed, targeted Chilled crops. 🎯
TL;DR
The Chilled mutation doubles crop value (×2) and shows frosty visuals. Get it from:
- Frost/Snow weather events ❄️
- Polar Bear pet (chance every 90s; can yield Frozen if applied to Wet) 🐻❄️
- Chilled Mutation Spray gear 🧴
Key combo: Wet + Chilled → Frozen (×10) — this is the fastest path to big sell values. Happy farming! 🌱💎
