Sundried Mutation Grow a Garden
Sundried is prolonged-heat desiccation at 21× weather environmental—drought-gold coating that sits beside Solar and Ember in heat-week brackets without inventing a Drenched conflict the conflict map never prints.

How to trigger
Stacking rules
Sundried is weather, stackable, environmental. Solo: 1 + (21 − 1) = 21. Sundried + Solar (22×) → sum 43, n = 2 → 42. Sundried + Solar + Ember (25×) → sum 68, n = 3 → 66. Sundried + Burnt (12×) → sum 33, n = 2 → 32. Ember—not Sundried—conflicts with Frozen, Chilled, and Frostbite. No Sundried/Drenched pair exists in CONFLICT_PAIRS. Growth exclusivity applies.

Sundried value by weight
Sundried applies a 21× multiplier in the weather bracket. The table below shows the value it adds to a reference crop (base 50) across common harvest weights, so you can gauge how much this tag is worth before chasing it.
| Weight | Base crop value | With Sundried (21×) | Value added |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 kg | 50 | 1.05K | +1K |
| 2 kg | 200 | 4.2K | +4K |
| 5 kg | 1.25K | 26.3K | +25K |
| 10 kg | 5K | 105K | +1K |
Sundried value impact
Heat-family bracket without fake opposites
Community guides sometimes claim Sundried blocks Drenched. The site conflict file does not. If both icons somehow appear, they would both enter the env sum; do not teach an unpublished exclusivity rule.
When Ember is selected, cold tags stay blocked. Sundried itself has no cold conflict row—plan moisture and freeze rules around Ember and Wet/Frozen pairs instead.
Sun themes across formula lanes
Solar is weather env at 22×; Radiant is growth at 19×. Sundried is another env heat coat, not a growth competitor. Rainbow can ride with Sundried; Radiant still fights Golden for the single growth slot.
On medium bases, Sundried plus clean Golden often beats camping for a fourth weak heat icon. Weight squared still outruns thin drought padding on light fruit. Finish high-base plants while heat-wave companions are visible, then confirm 1 + (sum − count) before listing. Burnt at 12× is optional char padding, not a required Sundried upgrade path.
Common questions
- Does Sundried conflict with Drenched?
- Not in mutation-conflicts.ts. No Sundried/Drenched pair is listed. Do not invent saturation exclusivity beyond the documented conflict map.
- Does Sundried conflict with Frozen like Ember does?
- No. Ember conflicts with Frozen, Chilled, and Frostbite. Sundried has no dedicated cold conflict pair.
