The Pollinated Mutation is a rare and valuable mutation that increases your crop value by 3×, turns the crop yellow, and emits a yellow cloud. It is tied to bee-themed events and certain pets.
| Step / Requirement | Details & Tips |
|---|---|
| Event Requirement | Must be an active Bee Swarm or similar bee-themed event. Bees fly from the central beehive to your garden to spread the mutation. Check the event timer before preparing crops. |
| Preparing Crops | Use multi-harvest crops. Harvest all crops just before the event to ensure fresh crops are ready for mutation. Example: Sunflowers, Carrots, or Strawberries. |
| Using Pets | Place pollination-related pets in your garden to increase the probability of the mutation. Pets that apply the Pollinated mutation include: Bee, Honey Bee, Petal Bee, Queen Bee, Wasp, Tarantula Hawk. These pets come from Bee Egg or Anti-Bee Egg. |
