Grow a Garden Complete Weather Guide – Mutations, Spawns & More!

Grow a Garden is a Roblox farming simulator packed with evolving gameplay systems—and one of the most impactful is the global weather system. Weather isn’t just cosmetic here. It affects how fast your crops grow, what kinds of mutations they gain, and even what kind of rewards you can expect.

If you want to maximize your farming strategy and get rare mutations, understanding how weather works is key. In this guide, we’ll cover all weather types, the effects they have, and how some of them are linked to exclusive crop mutations, weapons, and admin-only events.
