Quick answer
Greedy Growers Shocked Mutation at a Glance
Mutation source
Lightning Strike
The tree must be struck close to its harvest point.
Key condition
Below 25x
The current data lists the Shocked route below 25x tree multiplier.
What Is the Shocked Mutation in Greedy Growers?
Shocked is a lightning-based Greedy Growers mutation with a 2.5x sale value multiplier. Unlike weather or pet mutations, the route depends on the moment a lightning strike reaches the tree relative to the point where you would harvest it.
Shocked trees can produce Shocked fruits. That makes a successful lightning roll useful beyond the original tree, but it also means you should protect the crop and decide on a harvest target before greed pushes the multiplier too far.
How to Get the Shocked Mutation in Greedy Growers
The current data lists a precise lightning route: a tree can receive Shocked when lightning strikes within 1.0x of harvest while its multiplier is below 25x.
- Grow a tree until you are close to the multiplier you intend to harvest.
- Keep the tree below 25x if you are specifically targeting Shocked rather than Charged.
- Wait for a lightning strike within 1.0x of harvest, then harvest once the target and protection setup make the payout worth the exposure.
Example from the recorded data: a tree harvested at 2.0x and struck at 2.9x receives Shocked. Treat this as the listed example, not a promise that every strike will be safe.
Shocked Timing: 1.0x Window and 25x Threshold
The important decision is not simply whether lightning is coming. You need to track both the tree multiplier and how close the strike is to your intended harvest point. If the tree moves above 25x, the recorded lightning path changes to Charged instead.
Target state
Below 25x
Stay under the listed threshold when your plan is Shocked.
Strike timing
Within 1.0x
The strike must land within 1.0x of the intended harvest point.
Decision support
Check risk
Compare the payout with the chance of losing the tree before waiting again.
Shocked vs Charged Mutation
Both are lightning mutations, but the multiplier threshold separates their recorded routes. Use the full Mutations Database to compare every source before choosing a target.
| Mutation | Multiplier | Recorded condition |
|---|---|---|
| Shocked | 2.5x | Lightning near harvest, below 25x |
| Charged | 7.5x | Lightning near harvest, above 25x |
The Weather Events Database records Thunderstorm as the weather event associated with the Shocked / Charged route, while the mutation condition itself is tied to lightning timing and tree size.
Greedy Growers Shocked Mutation FAQ
What is the Shocked mutation in Greedy Growers?
Shocked is a lightning-based mutation that applies a 2.5x sale value multiplier to affected trees and fruits.
How do you get the Shocked mutation in Greedy Growers?
A tree can receive Shocked when lightning strikes within 1.0x of its harvest point while the tree multiplier is below 25x. The listed example is a tree harvested at 2.0x and struck at 2.9x.
Can Shocked trees produce Shocked fruits?
Yes. The current mutation data says trees with Shocked can produce fruits with the Shocked mutation as well.
Is Shocked better than Charged?
Shocked is the lower-threshold lightning route at 2.5x, while Charged is listed at 7.5x and uses the above-25x condition. The better route depends on how much multiplier and lightning risk you can safely hold.
Should you wait for Shocked before harvesting?
Only hold a tree when the extra mutation upside is worth the current lightning exposure. Use the Lightning Risk Calculator with your actual tree multiplier and protection setup before waiting for another strike.
