The Clay mutation emerges in Grow a Garden exclusively when plants endure both Sandstorm and Rain weather cycles.

Discovered plants display an earthy brown hue and sticky texture through blending two environmental adaptations. This dual mutation process creates a unique botanical transformation.

Cultivators must develop Sandy and Wet characteristics through separate environmental exposures. Desert storms impart sandy qualities, while precipitation introduces moisture-based traits – combined, they trigger the mud-like metamorphosis.

Successful mutations reveal themselves through visual indicators: plants adopt a distinctive terracotta coloration with a viscous surface texture. This biological response demonstrates successful adaptation merging.
