Has anyone ever gotten a magic plant that was from a purchased seed from the supplies box???

I believe I have gotten one, possible two of them?

Also, a question...if you change the difficulty level you play on, how does it become more difficult?

Thanks!!!

Was it the $2,000 seed by any chance? Just curious, and my game is on normal, and I think I have gotten 2 from the $2,000 seed catagory...Too easy, no??? I'm a little dissapointed...

I've gotten 2-4 from the Supply Store. (I know that at least 2 were the first time that plant were seeds, others may have been later in the game when I already had the plant.)

I believe that 5/6 of the MPs can be purchased, but one must be bred or mutated.

I mostly play at normal mode, so I don't know what the differences are.

I have one more question...when is the best time to mutate? Before or after pollination? I have heard different theories on this...

Thanks!

Before. I've been told. But yet again there are different theories.

hello everybody,

yes I had three magic plants buying seeds. 1 costed 200$ and the other 2 2000$.

I used the mutation liquid once, before pollination, on my most expensive flowers, cause I thought they were rare and it would be great . it wasn't at all! the plant instantly dropped from 500$ to 24$, and turned into my most common plant, I was mad !

I find it rather easy to make money in this game, so I don't mind buying seeds at random, and pollinating them all together as much as I can ! And sometimes the little stars sparkle as well !

Until you get into the Tier 4s, the mutation will always change the Tier for either the flower or foliage, so if you start with a common plant you are likely to get a higher Tier, or the other way around.

The advantage of mutating before pollination is that you can then self-pollinate the plant to save a copy of that seed. But sometimes I'll mutate afterwards if I just want to do some experimentation or recover from a pruning gone bad.

Well I tried it, and you are correct. The scenario that you mutate a lower tier plant, immediately creates a more valuable one, when mutated before pollination. I have mutated after pollination as well, with no change whatsoever, so before mutation must be correct.

Thanks for alll the expert advice!!!

The plant will change Tiers (when originally Tier 1-3 ) whether before or after pollination. That makes no difference. My apologies if I have confused you.

If the flower or foliage was a Tier 3 and changed then the plant will almost always decrease in value.

The reverse is true, if a flower or foliage changes to a Tier 3, the value of the plant will increase.

The exceptions are non-Tier 3/Tier 3 Magic Plants and one glitch in the pricing table.
