Weather Overview
In Grow a Garden, weather plays a vital role in shaping gameplay. The game features a global weather system that affects all servers simultaneously, introducing dynamic conditions that influence how crops grow and interact with the environment. Each type of weather offers unique effects from boosting crop value to triggering rare mutations.
Weather Impacts
Global Synchronization
Every active server experiences the same weather at the same time unless altered by admin commands or custom votes.
Enhanced Crop Growth
Weather types like Rain or Thunderstorms accelerate crop growth and increase harvest values.
Special Crop Mutations
Certain weather events can trigger rare mutations, boosting the rarity and worth of your crops.
Event-Locked Effects
Limited-time events may bring exclusive weather-based mutations (e.g., Pollinated) not available otherwise.
Admin-Exclusive Weathers
Unique types such as DJ Jhai can only be activated by game administrators.
Weather Types
Standard Weather
Occurs naturally and forms the core cycle of Grow a Garden’s environment. These weathers affect all players equally without admin control.
Event Weather
Appears during limited-time events and adds special effects, crop bonuses, or exclusive mutations tied to seasonal updates and community celebrations.
Admin Weather
Includes rare or experimental weather types that can only be triggered by administrators. Often used for testing, showcases, or special appearances (e.g., Shooting Stars, no longer in regular rotation).
