Thanks so much for that info!!

Another question....do you get new seeds to buy every 24 hrs or is it just like 3 times and that's it no more seeds??

I think it's every time you visit the store there's new seeds. This answer is not correct.

If I well remember, it's every 24 hours (our real hours) and not each time you go to the store! ;\)

As Laurence has said, buying common seeds is a good option. It's a lot cheaper to buy common seeds from the Supplies Shop. You know what Reptans seeds look like, so keep buying them, and you will eventually get a Spotted Reptans. There are only 5 flower types possible on a common seed, so each time you have a 20% chance of getting a Spotted.

Mutation is much costlier, is not guaranteed, but it is faster than waiting for a new seed supply in the store. There is a chance that you will get a Spotted Reptans from a Painted Reptans. But you could also see the foliage change into a different plant altogether or get a Daisy Reptans.

If you don't have a Painted Reptans, you could try "working your way down" with mutation liquid, but it will be expensive and potentially very frustrating, since the plant could change in ways that are opposite to what you're trying to accomplish.

If everything mutated exactly as you wanted each time (only the flowers changed and only toward Spotted), you could work your way down from a Nox Reptans, as follows:

Nox Reptans => Daisy Reptans => Painted Reptans => Spotted Reptans

Good luck! \:\)

I'm trying to get the Spotted Reptans. I have Aureus, Citrus, Fabled, Fourpetal, Fragrant and Jalapa.

I only had Jalapa and Citrus to start with, the others I got with Mutation. But now they just repeat themselves when Mutated. So annoying =S

Mutation liquid is not the best method for trying to get a specific plant - it's just too random.

If you read my post a few posts before yours, you'll find a more detailed explanation about trying to get a Spotted Reptans.
