Additionally, certain mutations may also be prevented by having too many of a certain species adjacent to a slot (e. Most new species appear as a result of mutations (created by having two or more parent crops adjacent to an empty plot), but the two basic species of fungi (Crumbspore and Brown Mold) can be found as a result of manually harvesting Meddleweed (older = higher chance). Sometimes, constantly tending to your garden can be a pain, and you wish you could just leave it to its own devices.

A few Keenmoss and/or Wardlichen plants can be added to another type of garden can sustain themselves fairly reliably. For example, if there are two adjacent Baker's Wheat, the empty plot may produce another Baker's Wheat or a random mutation: either a Thumbcorn or a Bakeberry. Each soil type influences the tick speed, and most have secondary effects on weed growth, passive plant effectiveness, plant spread and mutation, and auto-harvesting. Filling up an entire 6x6 field with Golden Clovers will grant a 108% increase in Golden Cookie frequency when all plants are mature (135% if using clay soil). The only maintenance necessary arises from the fact that 3 nearby Doughshrooms may form a Shriekbulb, which in turn will likely make 1 other Shriekbulb next to it.This can put your garden past a tipping point, making it lose the potential to reproduce itself and eventually die out, leaving just an elderwort or two. Each one has various properties which affect its aging rate, lifespan, passive effects, contributions to crossbreeding, and more. Once this garden is established, one of your plants will "pop" upon its decay about every 2 minutes, giving you either 1 or 5 minutes of whatever your CpS is at the time.

Interestingly enough, it appears that the Popcorn garden and the BW/TC/CR garden can coexist in a wood chips garden for a while. The increased Golden Cookie frequency also increases the chance of getting combo effects, which can potentially yield massive amounts of cookies.While growing, the crop ages every tick by its aging value, which in most cases is a randomized number. If you have a full set of wrinklers but want less Wrath cookies (for example, when in Stage 1 Grandmapocalypse), wardlichens will give you a higher percentage of GCs for your wrinklers to feast on. Despite the fact that they can be unlocked in one of several ways, the odds of one appearing are pretty low.

The reduced tick speed is actually quite helpful in this case, as it lets the plants stay mature for longer before needing to be replanted. By starting with lots of White Mildew or with only about 4 Brown Mold plants, you can make the White Mildew blooms larger than the Brown Mold blooms (there will be more spaces for white milder to appear and fewer for brown mold on every cycle). If you don't have that much milk or if you prefer longer-lived plants, Drowsyfern gives the biggest CpS boost.For the second chart, level 6 can be altered to remove its unwanted plots by using the setup for level 7 without the empty top row.

When both plants have reached maturity, every tik they have a chance to spawn a new offspring / mutations. once all the plants have matured (or 9% if using clay soil), which is nearly 50% more effective than Breath of Milk and only around 2. With a full 6x6 garden, the most effective way of using Nursetulips is to alternate between planting rows of Nursetulips and rows of the other plant. Immediately after changing the soil type, it cannot be changed for the next 10 minutes, unless a sugar lump is spent to reset the timer.

This means that they are much better than garden combos in general, which is why you shoul,d instead have alternating rows/columns of gclovers+tulips for optimal gc freq, and then swap to a whiskerbloom+glovermorel setup mid combo. Even though the switches are a big startup cost, doing this makes it much easier to maximize these plants' potential (to reach their % of bank cap). I would recommend harvesting it, and here's why: It takes up a space and won't reproduce with any of the other plants present. Duketaters give a vary large boost, but don't expect to have more than about 1/3 of the ones you planted ever to be mature at the same time.
