To obtain the Corrupt mutation in Grow a Garden, you’ll want to explore several methods, including the newly added Corrupted Aura weather event and various pets. Below are the most effective ways to obtain this mutation:

The Corrupt mutation can be earned during the Corrupted Aura weather event, which occurs every hour for 10 minutes. Prepare your garden with your best plants to maximize your chances of getting the mutation across a variety of crops.

2. Grow Corrupt Tree

If you hold a crop with Tranquil mutation and meet the required weight, you can give it to the Corrupt Channeller NPC. This action grants you Corruption points and allows you to grow the corrupted tree. Each hour, these points reset, transferring to random fruits in your garden as the Corrupt mutation.

3. Corrupted Staff and Mutation Spray

Leveling up the corrupted tree rewards random items, including the Corrupted Staff and Corrupted Mutation Spray. The staff acts like the Star Caller staff, applying the Corrupt mutation to plants within its range during the Corrupted Aura event.

While the staff’s effects are random, the Corrupt Mutation Spray guarantees the mutation on a specific plant. Simply equip it and click on your chosen crop to apply it.

4. Corrupt Pet Mutation

Just like the Tranquil Pet Mutation Shard, a Corrupted Pet Shard can now be found in the Zen Shop. You can purchase this shard with Chi points and use it on a pet to give it the Corrupt Pet mutation.

These pets gain a passive ability, allowing them to apply the Corrupt mutation to your garden’s harvests at regular intervals.

The Corrupt mutation grants your fruits a red thunderous aura and unique particle effects. This eye-catching appearance makes it easy to identify. Additionally, the mutation boosts your fruits’ sale value by 25 times, making it incredibly lucrative after the Corrupted event.

5. Corrupted Kodama

You can also acquire the Corrupt mutation through the Corrupted Kodama pet. Players have a 4.35% chance of obtaining this pet from growing the Corrupted Tree. Notably, this pet has a 4% chance of applying the Corrupt mutation to any Zen plant during harvesting.

Best Tips to Get Corrupt Mutation in Grow a Garden

Waiting for the Corrupted Aura event is the easiest way to receive the Corrupt mutation on your plants. Here are some quick tips to enhance your chances:

  • Grow Corrupt Tree: Cultivating the corrupt tree not only increases your corruption points but also resets every hour, providing additional chances for the Corrupt mutation. Ensure your Tranquil fruits meet the weight requirement before feeding them to the corrupt tree.
  • Plant Variety of Plants: Before the Corrupted Aura event, plant a diverse range of crops in your garden. The corrupt tree quest benefits from different weight plants, making it vital to have options.
  • Use the Corrupt Gears: Completing the corrupt tree quest rewards you with the Corrupt Staff and Corrupt Mutation Spray. Use these tools during the Corrupted Aura event for optimal results.

Is it worth the effort to obtain the Corrupt mutation? Definitely! With a 20x sale value multiplier, this mutation is crucial for completing the Kitsune quest and maintaining balance between trees. Since multiple methods exist to obtain it, feel free to collect as many as you desire.

When it comes to selling value, the Corrupt mutation holds equal weight to the Tranquil mutation. While gathering Corrupted fruits aids in maintaining balance, you’ll also need more Tranquil fruits. The more you have, the better your conversion rate into corruption points, leading to successful mutations across your garden.
