Weather events are one of the most important systems in Grow a Garden 2. They spawn randomly on every server, and each one changes the game differently. Some speed up crop growth, some apply valuable mutations that multiply your selling price, and others spawn special seeds you can't get anywhere else.
The problem is that most events only last a couple of minutes. If you don't know what each event does and how to react when it fires, you'll miss out on some of the best profit opportunities in the game.

Keep in mind that mutation multipliers in Grow a Garden 2 are still based on early community data, so exact values may change as the game gets patched.
Rain
Rain is one of the most common and longest events in the game, running for five minutes. It doubles the growth speed of every plant and rehydrates your whole garden for free. It doesn't apply any mutation, so the best strategy is to plant fresh seeds the moment it starts and cycle through harvests as fast as possible.
Lightning
During the Lightning event, the sky turns grey and lightning strikes the ground at intervals. Any crop that gets hit has a chance to gain the Electric (Shocked) mutation, one of the most valuable multipliers in the game. Keep your plots full and watered to give lightning as many targets as possible.
Rainbow
A large rainbow stretches across the map and raises the chance of plants gaining the Rainbow mutation as they grow. Every player also gets a temporary rainbow carpet to move around with. If you've been saving single-yield seeds, this is the time to plant them.
Snowfall
Snowfall, also called the Blizzard event, turns the lobby into winter and gives crops a chance to receive the Frozen mutation. Visibility drops while it runs, but the strategy stays the same: keep your garden full and check your crops once it ends.
Starfall
Starfall is one of the rarest weather events in the game, and it applies the Starstruck mutation to random crops in your garden. Because of the mutation's high value, this is one of the most profitable events you can catch. Never let it fire on an empty garden.
Aurora
Aurora gives crops a chance to gain the Aurora mutation over two minutes. It doesn't change the moon, so the only way to spot it is to watch the sky for the aurora effect itself. Pay attention, because it's easy to miss.
Blood Moon
Blood Moon is a rare night-only event that turns the sky and moon deep red while lasers fall onto the plots. Crops have a chance to gain the Bloodlit mutation, which carries one of the highest value multipliers in the game. A single Bloodlit crop on a high-rarity plant can be worth more than an entire session of normal farming. Since PvP is active at night, harvest your Bloodlit crops right after the event ends so other players can't steal them.
Rainbow Seed
During this event, Rainbow Seeds spawn at random around the map, and you collect them by standing near a seed and holding E. These seeds can grow into any rarity of plant, so grab as many as you can before the event ends.

The Day and Night Cycle
Weather events aren't the only thing affecting your garden. Grow a Garden 2 also runs on a day and night cycle. During the daytime, the default weather is Sunny, which has no special effects. When night falls, PvP mode activates and players can steal plants from each other's gardens.
There's also a chance for a Gold, Rainbow, or Bloodmoon to appear in the night sky, and each moon can apply its respective mutation to your plants. Nighttime is risky, but the mutation potential makes it worth staying online.
