🔥 Ember Mutation in Grow a Garden — Crop ×100 & Pet Mutation
Ember is a ×100 mutation that comes from the Fire Wisp. Don't mix it up with the Ember variant (×60): the wiki notes they're separate mechanics. Ember is also a pet mutation, applied by the same pet; that's covered below.

🔥 Getting Ember
Every 16 minutes 40 seconds at base weight, the Fire Wisp has a 5% chance to make a nearby fruit Ember, rising to 10% at 100 kg. Its ability can't be mimicked or refreshed, so other pets can't speed it up that way.
As a mutation, Ember adds 99 to a fruit's total, like Shocked. The Ember variant instead multiplies the whole fruit, the way Gold or Rainbow do.
🐾 The Ember pet mutation
Most people searching for the Ember mutation mean the pet mutation, so here it is. It comes from the same pet: the Fire Wisp's second ability, Fireheart. Every 30 minutes at base weight, the Fire Wisp picks a pet that is age 100 or older and has no pet mutation yet, and rolls a 3% chance (6% at 100 kg) to make it Ember. The roll costs the target pet age whether it works or not: 100 ages on a success, 50 on a miss. So only leave out pets you're willing to age down, and keep the one you want mutated above age 100 the whole time.
The wiki's Pet Mutations page sums Ember up as a "HUGE boost to passive, XP and size": +32% ability strength, +32% pet XP and 200% size, with a ×88 sell multiplier. The Fire Wisp guide has the odds at every weight, and the pet mutations list has Ember next to the other 61.
