Overview

The Severed mutation is a special crop mutation in Grow a Garden. It is primarily known for a distinct visual appearance where the fruit appears split or severed and for significantly raising the sell value of mutated crops. As a value-focused mutation, Severed is most often pursued by players who want higher returns when selling harvested crops.

Multiplier and Value

The Severed mutation is reported to apply a high sell-value multiplier to mutated crops. The commonly cited multiplier is x40 (forty times the base sell value). This multiplier makes Severed one of the more valuable mutations to obtain and use, because it multiplies the base crop worth and scales well when applied to already high-value or rare crops.

Because mutation multipliers multiply the crop base value, applying Severed to rare or high-tier crops yields larger absolute gains in in-game currency than applying it to low-value crops.

Visual Effects

Visually, crops with the Severed mutation are commonly described as appearing split in half or clearly divided as if the fruit is severed. The split appearance is a simple visual cue that helps players identify Severed-mutated crops in their garden quickly.

Release and Availability

The Severed mutation has been discussed within the Grow a Garden community and is associated with Offering events. One commonly noted date associated with the mutation is September 27, 2025, which is sometimes mentioned as the date it became widely recognized or included in an update. Because game content and events can evolve, players should treat release dates reported in community summaries as indicative rather than definitive.

How to Obtain Severed Mutation

The most reported method to obtain the Severed mutation is through the game's Offering mechanic. Specifically, players report that offering a fruit to the offering pedestal during an Offering event or Offering weather can trigger mutations like Severed. Anecdotal guides mention offering specific fruits such as Blueberry, but exact fruit requirements, success chances, and guaranteed triggers are not universally documented and may depend on event rules or developer changes.

Because Offering events and mutation mechanics are often event-driven, players typically must be active during the event window and follow any in-game offering prompts or requirements to attempt to obtain event-tied mutations.

Gameplay Strategy and Use

The primary benefit of Severed is its high sell-value multiplier. Competitive strategies include:

• Applying Severed to already high-value or rare crops to maximize absolute currency gains per harvest.
• Saving and timing harvests with sell multipliers or market opportunities available in-game to convert Severed crops into currency at the most beneficial times.
• Using Severed-mutated crops as a way to accelerate progress, buy upgrades, or fund in-game events that require currency.

Severed is not primarily described as a mutation that speeds growth or grants active abilities — its value lies in multiplication of sell price rather than growth mechanics.

Reliability and Known Limitations

Information about Severed includes community reports and event-based guides. Because the mutation is tied to events and because games like Grow a Garden receive periodic updates, details such as exact obtain methods, fruit requirements, and availability windows may change. Players should verify in-game prompts and official patch notes when possible.

Short Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the Severed mutation?

A mutation that visually splits the fruit and applies a high sell-value multiplier to the mutated crop.

How much does Severed multiply crop sell value?

Severed is commonly reported to apply a x40 multiplier to the base sell value of the crop.

When was Severed released?

Community reports reference September 27, 2025 as a notable date for recognition or inclusion, but players should confirm the in-game history or patch notes for an exact release record.

How do I get Severed?

Most reports indicate Severed is obtainable via the Offering mechanic during Offering events or Offering weather, often by offering fruits to a pedestal. Exact fruit requirements and chances are not guaranteed.

Does Severed change crop growth speed or give extra abilities?

No widely reported active effects beyond the sell-value multiplier; the mutation primarily increases sale value.
