What is Sunburst?

Daytime weather event: sky turns bright orange-yellow. Crops growing during this event have a chance to gain the Ignited mutation. Daytime PvP is disabled during the event, so there is no stealing risk.

Sunburst is categorised as a Standard weather event in Grow a Garden 2. It is part of the rotating server-wide weather system, where each event applies a temporary rule to the garden — usually a chance to apply one or more mutations to ripe crops.

Duration and trigger

Duration: ~5 min

Trigger condition: Daytime, random (no confirmed schedule)

Mutations triggered

While Sunburst is active, ripe crops have a chance to roll one of the following mutations:

  • Ignited·× sell multiplier
    Unconfirmed

Weather mutations stack additively with each other, so if two weather events happen to overlap, the roll value compounds. See the mutation system explainer for the full stacking formula.

Strategy

The optimal play during a Sunburst window is to have high-value multi-harvest crops ripe on the plot when the event starts, so the mutation roll has the widest possible target set. Crops with a high base sell value benefit most from a multiplier roll; cheap crops gain little.

Pair the window with relevant pets and gears that compound the benefit. The value calculator lets you model the multiplier on your specific crop; the weather events guide covers timing and stacking with other weather mutations.
