Garden guide
+ ++ A quick guide to growing plants, earning Dew, + and discovering mutations. You do not need to + know everything here before you start playing. + (But it's useful to do..) +
+ +Getting started
+ ++ A new Garden starts with a Red Rose seed and + some Dew. The Shop + stocks seeds you can buy to start gardening and + making some Dew. +
+ ++ Seeds are consumable. Planting one removes it + from your inventory, so you need to buy + another if you want to grow the same plant again. + ..So just buy multiple at once. +
+Planting and growing
+ ++ In the Garden, + select a seed and then choose an empty plot. + Plants continue growing with real time, even while + you are away from the page. +
+ ++ Plant sprites change as they grow. When the final + growth sprite appears, the plant is mature and can + be harvested. The Garden also shows when your next + plant will be ready. Don't worry: it'll also have + a green border around it when it's ready to harvest. +
+Harvesting
+ ++ Click a mature plant to harvest it. Harvesting gives + you Dew and makes the plot empty again, as it once was. +
+ ++ More valuable seeds usually give more Dew. + The Shop shows the current seed cost, + harvest reward, growth time, and how many seeds you + already own. So you can be smart in your plant investments! +
+The Shop
+ ++ Some basic plants can be bought from the beginning. + Plants created through mutations become purchasable + in the shop after you discover them. +
+ ++ Mutation-derived seed prices are based on their + recipes, so discovering and performing mutations is + often a useful alternative to simply buying the + resulting seed. +
+Mutations
+ ++ Most plants can create new plants or change when they are + arranged in a particular pattern. Unless a mutation + says otherwise, the plants involved need to be + mature before the recipe can work. +
+ ++ As soon as a valid recipe exists, the Garden tries + the mutation. Some mutations are guaranteed, but + others may only have a chance to succeed. A failed + attempt may need to wait for its cooldown before + that same area can try mutating again. +
+ ++ Try arranging mature plants like this: +
+ ++ "Empty" means the middle plot really does need + to be empty. What happens next is for you to + find out. +
+Discoveries
+ ++ Discovering a new plant or mutation is saved with + your Garden. New plant discoveries also unlock + additional seeds in the Shop, so you can skip + creating them through mutations. Though it always + costs more to buy the seeds than create them by mutation.. +
+ ++ Experiment with different plants, empty spaces, and + arrangements. Not every recipe has to look like the + example above. Some are logical (Red + Blue = Purple), + while others are visual, or maybe don't make sense at all. +
+Tools
+ ++ The Shovel removes a planted crop without giving a + harvest reward. Select it, click the plant you want + to remove, and click the Shovel again when you want + to have no tool equipped. It's very useful when you + decide you want to try a new mutation, for example. +
+Your account
+ ++ Your Profile + contains your username, colour, statistics, and + Account Key. Garden saves can sync through the API, + while the Account Key lets you use the same Garden + in another browser or on another device. + It's basically just like logging into an account. +
+ ++ Treat your Account Key like a password. Anyone who + has it can load the same Garden account and mess stuff up. +
