About Peppermint
Peppermint is a crop mutation worth x4 the base sell value. It can be applied by the Mystical Snow Globe. It also appears during Giant Candy Cane Rain.
Peppermint — In-Depth Analysis
Two separate things hand out Peppermint. One is the Mystical Snow Globe; the other is the Giant Candy Cane Rain weather, which raises the chance of Peppermint fruit. The wiki also describes a standard Wet-type weather in which candy canes fall from the sky and any crop they strike gets Peppermint.
Its x4 payout leaves it 172nd of 192 mutations, tied with Twilight, Verdant, Wiltproof, Nocturnal, Haunted, Gummy, Ash and Bloodlit. The closest neighbors in the ranking are Cracked and Fall, also x4, and just below it Sleepy and Meatball at x3. A struck crop therefore ends up worth one more multiplier step than the common x3 pet mutations. That makes three separate routes in all: the Snow Globe, the Giant Candy Cane Rain weather, and the falling candy canes of the Wet-type weather.
