🌑 Eclipsed Mutation in Grow a Garden
By Paquito Jr Conde | August 26, 2025
The Eclipsed Mutation is one of the rarest and most rewarding features in Roblox’s Grow a Garden. Triggered only during the Solar Eclipse event, this mutation not only dazzles with dark purple auras and sparkling effects, but also boosts your crop’s value by an incredible 15×. Here’s everything you need to know to prepare, unlock, and make the most out of this limited-time phenomenon! ✨
🌑 Eclipsed Mutation — Grow a Garden
The Eclipsed Mutation is a rare, visually striking mutation in Grow a Garden that appears only during the Solar Eclipse event. It multiplies a crop's sell value and adds dark/purple visual effects — prepare your best plots and strike when the sky goes dark! ✨
What is the Eclipsed Mutation? 🌘
The Eclipsed Mutation is a special crop mutation introduced during the Beanstalk Event. It only appears while the game's Solar Eclipse weather event is active and is controlled by the developers (players cannot manually trigger it).
Release Date & Event Context 📅
The Eclipsed Mutation was added as part of the Beanstalk Event, which began on August 16, 2025. Grow a Garden itself launched earlier on March 26, 2025.
Multiplier & Visual Effects ✨
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Value Multiplier | 15× the normal sell value |
| Visual Effects | Dark/black or purple aura, starry overlays, light-blue sparkles or glare-like particles, and dimmed lobby lighting |
How to Get the Eclipsed Mutation 🔭
- Watch for the Solar Eclipse event — an eclipse icon (a black sun with rays) will appear on your screen, the lobby will darken, and the sky will show a visible eclipse.
-
Prep your garden beforehand:
- Plant lots of multi-harvest, high-value crops (examples: Sugar Apple, Dragon Pepper, Bone Blossom, Beanstalk, Dragon Fruit, Honeysuckle, Bamboo, Watermelon, Moon Mango). 🌱
- Remove low-tier filler crops (strawberries, blueberries, carrots) to free mutation slots — use a shovel to clear them. 🧹
- Set up and stack sprinklers (Advanced, Godly, Master, Mutation Spray) to boost growth and mutation chances. 💧
- During the event — let eligible crops remain active through the eclipse; each active crop has a random chance to mutate into the Eclipsed Mutation while the event runs. After the event, harvest mutated crops carefully or use protection tools to secure them. 🪄
Strategy Summary 🧠
- Be event-ready — watch for the icon and lobby changes so you don't miss the window. ⏰
- Maximize targets — plant many multi-harvest, high-value crops so more chances exist for mutations. 🌾
- Use tools wisely — stack sprinklers and remove low-value crops to improve mutation odds. 🛠️
- Timing matters — your setup before the eclipse is critical; act fast when the event starts. ⚡
