In Grow a Garden, mutations are the shortcut to faster Sheckles, and getting them is usually a passive process until the 1.09.0 update. That’s when GaG introduced one of its most unique mutations yet: Dawnbound, which actually requires a bit of effort.
This was the first-ever variant to appear as a mystery, and unlocking it required players to solve a tricky puzzle involving the Sun NPC. In this guide, we’ll cover how you can snag the Dawnbound mutated fruits in Grow a Garden, their value, and the best mutation combos to pair with them.
How to Get Heavenly Mutation in Grow a Garden
The Heavenly mutation first appeared in the Friendship update for Grow a Garden, yet it remains a permanent variant that shows up at specific times.
How to Get Dawnbound Fruits in Grow a Garden
First things first, Dawnbound mutation isn’t something you can obtain solo. You’ll need four players total (friends or other server members), and each person must have a Sunflower in their inventory. It can be any Sunflower (regular or mutated) since it’s the only crop that can become this special type.
The process is pretty simple, too. To get the Dawnbound mutation in Grow a Garden, just be around when Jandel kicks off the Sungod event. Then, head over to the Golden Monkey NPC with your group and show it all four Sunflowers together. If done correctly, the flowers will start glowing and transform into the electric-yellow Dawnbound variant.
Each Sunflower that gets the Dawnbound mutation will see a spike of 150x in its selling price, which means a normal flower could go for nearly 20 million in GaG. Of course, that final amount still depends on the crop’s weight and any stacked mutations. It’s a fun, team-based event and one of the fastest ways to grow your fortune.
Best Dawnbound Mutation Combos in Grow a Garden
Dawnbound only works on harvested Sunflowers, unlike other mutations that form while still being on the plant. But stacking variants is still possible; just leave your Sunflower on the plant so it can absorb mutations through events or weather. Once it’s loaded up, pick it up and save it for the Dawnbound transformation. Here are the best mutation combos for getting the highest value from these divine flowers.

Is Dawnbound Mutation Worth it in Grow a Garden?
Dawnbound has quickly become the best mutation in Grow a Garden, even outshining Voidtouched from the 1.08.0 update. With the right combo, a regular Sunflower can reach billions in value. While Dawnbound is totally worth chasing, don’t stress if you miss it, as you can still reach similar prices by stacking strong variants like Disco, Celestial, or Voidtouched.
