Charcoal is a mutation in Grow a Garden that multiplies a crop's sell price by x6. Mutations are the single biggest factor in crop value — a base-value crop can sell for many times more once valuable mutations are applied. Charcoal is applied automatically when its trigger condition is met while the crop is growing or harvested.
Because multipliers stack, the most profitable setups combine several mutations on the same high-value crop.
