How to get Astral Mutation in Grow a Garden

About the Astral Mutation (Image via Roblox)

The Cosmic and Galactic Mutations combine to form the Astral Mutation in Grow a Garden. Given that Astral occurs due to a fusion, obtaining it is a tiresome process, as you'll need to wait for special events to mutate your crops.

Cosmic itself occurs due to a combination, arising when a crop has both the Celestial and the Aurora Mutations. Celestial can be acquired during the Meteor Shower event, while Aurora is applied by the Aurora Borealis event. Both these events are part of the game's weather cycle, so you don't need to wait for developers to trigger them on a server.

Acquiring the Galactic Mutation is more challenging. It is applied by the Space Travel event, which is only activated by the developers. You'll need to attend Admin Abuse occasions regularly, hope for the Space Travel event to begin, and then get an opportunity to receive Galactic on your crops.

The Cosmic and Galactic Mutations are removed when they form Astral. However, both can be reapplied on the same Astral plant, fruit, or vegetable.

Value multiplier of Astral Mutation

Effects of the Astral Mutation (Image via Roblox)

The Astral Mutation gives the affected crop a radiant, heavenly gleam, somewhat similar to the Celestial Mutation. Such visual effects are easily noticeable, even if there are several plants in one's garden.

Astral increases a crop's original value by a massive 365x multiplier. So, a 7kg Black Bat Flower that normally sells for around 1,122,100 Sheckles will give a whopping 400,000,000 or more Sheckles if it has the Astral Mutation.

Note that the value-boosting benefit of every Mutation is stackable. So, your crops can receive Astral as well as other Mutations, leading to an exponential increase in their value and your subsequent Sheckle earnings.
