What Is the Sliced Mutation?

The Sliced Mutation is a rare visual transformation that makes your fruits and vegetables appear as if they've been cleanly cut in half, with sections looking divided, rotated, or floating nearby. The Sliced Mutation was added as part of the Trading and Cooking Event Update, and it has since become one of the most valuable mutations available to players.

When applied to your crops, the Sliced Mutation applies a 50x multiplier to the crop's base value, placing it among the elite tier of mutations alongside Rainbow, Ancient Amber, and Blitzshock. The visual effect is distinctive - a clear line runs down the middle of affected crops, creating a unique sliced appearance that immediately identifies these high-value plants in your garden.

Two Methods to Obtain the Sliced Mutation

Method 1: The Jandel the Chef Event (Original)

During the Jandel the Chef event, Jandel's avatar uses a massive katana to split the island in two. This dramatic admin-triggered event is the original method for obtaining the Sliced Mutation. Here's what happens during this event:

1. Event Trigger: A giant version of developer Jandel's avatar appears behind the Cosmetics/Crafting Shop
2. The Slice: The character then uses the katana to slice the island in two and leave the players floating in the air
3. Mutation Application: A server-wide notification appears on the screen, mentioning that "some fruits have been given the Sliced Mutation"
4. Random Selection: The mutation randomly applies to crops throughout all gardens in the server

Pro Tip: This unnamed event typically occurs in the hour before weekend updates, so stay alert during these times for your best chance to participate.

Method 2: The Giant Sword Event (Newer Addition)

Later, the Giant Sword event was added as another way to get it. This interactive event requires player participation:

1. Event Start: A massive sword appears stuck in the island
2. Player Interaction: Players must repeatedly interact with a large sword stuck in the island to pull it out
3. Teamwork Bonus: Success more likely if multiple players assist
4. Reward: Successfully pulling out the sword applies the Sliced Mutation to random crops nearby

This method encourages cooperation among players and provides a more interactive way to obtain this valuable mutation compared to the passive nature of the Jandel the Chef event.

Maximizing Your Chances

While the Sliced Mutation applies randomly during these events, you can employ several strategies to increase your odds of getting it on valuable crops:

1. Garden Preparation

• Fill Your Garden: Plant as many crops as possible before the event
• Use High-Value Seeds: Focus on expensive crops like Dragon Fruit or rare event seeds
• Clear Low-Value Plants: You can increase your chances of getting it on a particular one by removing the other fruits in your garden via a Shovel or a Reclaimer

2. Timing Strategies

• Monitor Update Schedules: Pay attention to weekend update announcements
• Join Active Servers: Look for servers with high player counts during expected event times
• Stay Alert: Keep notifications enabled for server-wide announcements

3. Community Resources

Join the official Grow a Garden Discord to:

• Get real-time notifications about admin events
• Coordinate with other players for the Giant Sword event
• Share tips and strategies with the community
• Track event patterns and timing

Spreading the Sliced Mutation

Once you've obtained the Sliced Mutation on one or more crops, you can spread it to others using specific pets:

Compatible Pets for Spreading

You can spread the Mutation by using Pets, such as T-Rex and Fennec Fox. These pets have special abilities that allow them to transfer existing mutations from one crop to another, making them invaluable for maximizing your Sliced crops.

How to Spread Mutations:

1. Obtain a T-Rex or Fennec Fox through trading or events
2. Place the pet in your garden near Sliced crops
3. The pet will automatically spread the mutation to nearby plants
4. Continue harvesting and replanting to build your Sliced collection

Value Calculations and Stacking

The Sliced Mutation's 50x multiplier can combine with other mutations for astronomical values:

Example Value Calculations

• Basic Corn (2.73 kg): ~75 Sheckles normally
• With Sliced Mutation: 3727 Sheckles when affected by that particular Mutation
• With Sliced + Rainbow: 75 × 50 × 50 = 187,500 Sheckles
• With Multiple Stacked Mutations: Values can reach billions or even trillions

Best Mutations to Stack with Sliced

1. Rainbow (50x) - Another high-value multiplier
2. Gold (20x) - More common than Rainbow
3. Bloodlit (25x) - Available during Blood Moon events
4. Shocked (100x) - Thunderstorm event mutation
5. Cosmic (240x) - Combination mutation for maximum value

When to Expect Admin Events?

Based on community observations and patterns, here are the best times to watch for Sliced Mutation events:

Peak Times

• Friday Evenings: Before weekend updates
• Saturday Mornings: During update rollouts
• Special Occasions: Major game milestones or celebrations
• Trading Update Anniversary: Around update anniversaries

Server Selection Tips

• Join servers with 15+ players for better Giant Sword success
• Look for servers where admins are active (check player list)
• Monitor community Discord for event announcements
• Use server-hopping strategically during expected event windows

Advanced Strategies

1. The Market Timing Method

• Hold Sliced crops until market prices peak
• Monitor the Grow a Garden Trading Discord for price trends
• Trade Sliced crops for rare pets or seeds during high-demand periods

2. The Mutation Stacking Strategy

• Save Sliced crops for combining with event mutations
• Use mutation sprays on Sliced crops for additional multipliers
• Time harvests during multiple weather events for maximum stacking

3. The Trading Leverage Technique

• Use Sliced crops as trading currency
• Exchange for limited-time items or pets
• Build relationships with traders who value Sliced mutations highly

Common Mistakes to Avoid

1. Harvesting Too Early: Wait for additional mutations before harvesting Sliced crops
2. Missing Event Windows: Set reminders for typical admin event times
3. Poor Garden Layout: Organize crops for maximum mutation spread efficiency
4. Ignoring Team Events: The Giant Sword requires cooperation - don't try solo
5. Selling Immediately: Consider market timing for maximum profit

Frequently Asked Questions

How rare is the Sliced Mutation compared to other mutations?

The Sliced Mutation is considered extremely rare since it's only available through admin-triggered events. Unlike Rainbow (0.1% chance) or Gold (1% chance) mutations that can occur naturally, Sliced requires perfect timing and server presence during specific events.

Can I get the Sliced Mutation without participating in events?

No, the Sliced Mutation cannot be obtained through regular gameplay, weather events, or mutation sprays. Your only options are participating in the admin events or trading with players who already have Sliced crops.

What's the best crop to get Sliced Mutation on?

High-value, multi-harvest crops like Dragon Fruit, Candy Blossom, or event-exclusive seeds provide the best return on investment when affected by Sliced Mutation. Single-harvest crops can also be valuable but require replanting.

How often do admin events for Sliced Mutation occur?

It typically happens in the hour before weekend updates, but frequency varies based on developer activity. Some weeks may have multiple events, while others might have none.

Can Sliced Mutation be removed or lost?

Once applied, the Sliced Mutation remains on the crop until harvest. It cannot be removed or overwritten by other mutations - it only stacks with them.

Is there a limit to how many Sliced crops I can have?

There's no limit to the number of Sliced crops you can obtain or maintain in your garden. The only limitation is the randomness of the mutation application during events.

Do I need special items to participate in Giant Sword event?

No special items are required. Simply approach the sword and repeatedly press the interaction button (E on PC) to help pull it out. More players participating increases success chances.

Can I transfer Sliced Mutation between accounts?

While you cannot directly transfer mutations between accounts, you can trade Sliced crops or seeds to other players, effectively transferring the value of the mutation.

Expert Tips for Success

1. Multi-Account Strategy

Some dedicated players use multiple accounts or devices to increase their chances during admin events. While time-consuming, this can significantly boost your odds of obtaining Sliced mutations.

2. Server Hopping Technique

During expected event windows, quickly check multiple servers for ongoing events. The Giant Sword event, in particular, may trigger at different times across servers.

3. Notification Setup

Configure Discord notifications for specific keywords like "admin event," "Jandel," or "Giant Sword" in community servers to get instant alerts when events begin.

4. Pre-Event Checklist

• ✓ Garden fully planted with valuable crops
• ✓ Inventory cleared for harvested mutations
