The new Lunar event in Grow a Garden introduces the Moonlit mutation! Learn how to trigger it, use the Night Staff, and earn big profits or complete event quests.
How to Get the Moonlit Mutation in Roblox Grow a Garden
Grow a Garden continues to dominate Roblox’s top charts, and its regular updates are a big reason why. The latest Lunar event introduces nighttime cycles, a themed quest, and one of the most powerful crop upgrades yet: the Moonlit mutation.
If you’re wondering how to get this glowing new buff and what to do with it once you have it — you’re in the right place.
🌙 What Is the Moonlit Mutation?
Moonlit is a new mutation that only appears during nighttime in Grow a Garden. When active, it gives certain crops a 2x sale value — making it one of the most profitable upgrades in the game.
Plus, it’s essential for completing the Lunar event quest, where you’ll trade Moonlit crops to the Wise Owl.
🌌 How to Get the Moonlit Mutation
Option 1: Wait for Nighttime
Night is a random weather event that turns the entire map dark. When it happens, there’s a chance some of your crops will naturally mutate into Moonlit versions. This doesn’t cost anything — but it’s luck-based and you might only see one or two crops change.
Option 2: Use the Night Staff (Best Method)
If you want a more reliable method, grab the Night Staff — a special item from the Lunar event (not available in the gear shop).
How to Use It:
- Earn the Night Staff by completing parts of the Lunar event (guide linked above!).
- Place it anywhere in your garden.
- During a night cycle, the Night Staff will automatically grant Moonlit mutation to six random crops.
This massively increases your odds of scoring multiple Moonlit crops in one go — perfect for farming or questing.
💰 All Uses for Moonlit Mutation
Once your crops have the Moonlit mutation, you’ve got two great options:
1. Sell for Profit
Moonlit crops sell for double the usual price. If you land the mutation on a rare crop like Moon Blossom (normally worth 35,000 Sheckles), you’re looking at 70,000 Sheckles per crop. That’s a huge cash boost.
2. Give to the Wise Owl (Lunar Event)
The Wise Owl is a key NPC in the Lunar event. He specifically asks for Moonlit crops in exchange for quest progression and unique event rewards — including currency, cosmetics, and possibly even seeds.
The Moonlit mutation is easily one of the most rewarding features in Grow a Garden right now. Whether you’re farming for profit or chasing Lunar event rewards, it’s a win-win.
