About Verdant
Verdant is a crop mutation with a x4 multiplier on the base sell value. The Scarlet Macaw pet can apply it. It also appears during Solar Flare or Sunset. It can be obtained with the Mutation Spray Verdant.
Verdant — In-Depth Analysis
Verdant has three routes: the Scarlet Macaw pet, the Solar Flare and Sunset weathers, and the Mutation Spray Verdant. The weather notes tell the two apart: Sunset says the sun is setting and gives Verdant to some fruit, while Solar Flare applies Sundried and Verdant to some fruit at the same time.
That second weather is the point. Sundried pays x85, and the wiki lists Verdant plus Sundried as the recipe for Paradisal, a x100 mutation that is also listed under Solar Flare.
On its own Verdant is only x4, 163rd of 192, beside Opulent at x5 and Twilight, Wiltproof and Nocturnal at x4. Without a Solar Flare or Sunset on the clock, the Scarlet Macaw and the spray are the only routes left.
