🌦️ Grow a Garden Weather

Weather in Grow a Garden does two things: some weathers make crops grow faster, and almost all of them give fruit a mutation that raises its sell price. This page covers the weathers you'll actually see, the mutation each one gives, and what the wiki knows about how often they come round.

Last verified November 10, 2026 against the Weather and Crop Mutations pages on the Grow a Garden wiki. An earlier version of this page listed exact schedules and durations for each weather; the game doesn't publish those, so we've removed them.

⛅ How weather works

Every active server has the same weather at the same time. The only exception is during Admin Abuse events, when players can vote for different weathers. The wiki sorts weathers into a few groups:

• Regular weathers — appear on their own, like Rain, Thunderstorm and Frost.
• Event weathers — only during a specific event, like the Bee Swarm or the Safari weathers.
• Admin weathers — only spawned by an admin, usually during Admin Abuse (for example Black Hole and Disco).

A few weathers also drop exclusive things: the wiki mentions the Snaparino Beanarini and Frostspike seeds and the Woody and Chicken Zombie pets.

⏱️ How often weather happens

The game has no published weather schedule, so this site doesn't show a weather countdown. What the wiki has recorded from watching the game:

• Rain is the most common weather, roughly every 20 minutes.
• Thunderstorms come much less often — about every 2 to 6 hours.
• Since the Bizzy Bees update, Night, Blood Moon and Meteor Shower run as events every 4 hours.
• Most weathers last about 3 to 5 minutes. Night is one of the few that lasts longer.

Because they're short, the practical move is to have crops already growing when a weather starts, instead of planting when you see it.

🌧️ The main weathers and their mutations

These are the weathers that turn up in normal play. Multipliers are from the wiki's mutation table; follow a mutation for its own guide.

🧪 Fusions you can build from weather

Some weather mutations combine into a bigger one when they meet on the same fruit. The fusion happens automatically:

• Wet ×2 or Drenched ×5 + Chilled ×2 → Frozen ×10. Frost gives you both halves at once — or leave a Rain-soaked fruit out for the next Frost.
• Wet or Drenched + Sandy ×3 → Clay ×5. Clay then fuses with a heat mutation (such as Sundried) into Ceramic (×32).
• Windstruck ×2 + Twisted ×5 → Tempestuous ×12 (Windy, then a Tornado).
• Celestial ×120 + Aurora ×90 → Cosmic (×240) — a Meteor Shower fruit that later catches an Aurora Borealis, or a Crystal Beam.

Mutations add up rather than multiply — Shocked + Frozen is ×109, not ×1,000 — and then the fruit's variant (Gold ×20, Rainbow ×50…) multiplies the total. Price your fruit in the calculator.

✨ Rarer and event weathers worth knowing

• Sun God — gives Dawnbound ×150. Players report getting it by gathering in a group of four, each holding a Sunflower.
• Black Hole (admin) — a small chance to turn fruit Voidtouched ×135.
• Disco (admin) — a small chance to turn fruit Disco ×125. Monster Mash and several party weathers give it too.
• Meteor Strike (admin) — Meteoric ×125.
• Space Travel / Supernova (admin) — Galactic ×120.
• Alien Invasion (admin) — UFOs have a small chance to make fruit Alienlike ×100.
• Bee Swarm (event) — a higher chance of Pollinated ×3.

🏺 Anubis Event weathers

The Anubis Event, which started on November 7, 2026, brought weathers that run on a fixed clock instead of turning up at random. Per the wiki, an Anubis Sandstorm starts every 60 minutes and lasts 10 minutes, and while it blows, fruit can pick up Hieroglyphic ×3, the mutation you sell for Anubis Coins. It is a different weather from the regular Sandstorm in the table above, which gives Sandy.

Every 120 minutes, an hour after a sandstorm, eight pillars come down around the map; the patch notes call them Obelisks. When the players on the server have charged all eight, one of eight relic weathers starts at random and gives every garden a temporary buff:

The first five are on the wiki's Weather page. Eye of Ra, Scales of Ma'at and Hourglass of Eternity are so far only on its Anubis Event page, and the wiki doesn't say how long a relic weather lasts. The Hieroglyphic Staff gives extra Hieroglyphic fruit per sandstorm, and the Uraeus pet can spread the mutation to more fruit.

🧰 Getting weather mutations without the weather

Waiting for a 4-minute window isn't the only way. Per the wiki: sprinklers and the Sea Turtle and Kappa pets apply Wet; the Raiju applies Shocked (its chain lightning) and Static; the Space Squirrel applies Voidtouched; and there are mutation sprays for Shocked, Chilled, Glimmering and others. The mutations list shows every source for each mutation.

Among the regular weathers, Meteor Shower gives Celestial (×120) and Thunderstorm gives Shocked (×100). Rarer ones go higher: Sun God gives Dawnbound (×150), and the admin-only Black Hole gives Voidtouched (×135).

Which weathers make crops grow faster?

Rain, Thunderstorm, Frost, Tropical Rain and Aurora Borealis all give +50% grow speed while they last.

Can I get weather mutations without the weather?

Often, yes. Sprinklers and the Sea Turtle or Kappa pets apply Wet, the Raiju applies Shocked, the Space Squirrel applies Voidtouched, and mutation sprays exist for several weather mutations.

📋 Every weather on the wiki (A–Z)

All 197 weathers on the wiki's Weather page, with the in-game description where the wiki has one and the mutation(s) its mutation table links to that weather. "Admin" and "Event" are how the wiki's mutation table labels them (the Anubis weathers are marked Event because the wiki lists them on its Anubis Event page); many have no description yet.
