Best Way to Optimize
Mass Planting Strategy - Fill entire garden with Divine and Prismatic rarity crops since Windstruck can apply to most plants easily. Active Participation - Stay online during Windy events as mutations don't trigger when offline. Combination Potential - Use Windstruck as base for Tempestuous Mutation by combining with Sandy and Twisted mutations (12x total multiplier).
Pro Tips
Visual Recognition - Look for white screen tint, wind particle effects, and 'Windy' indicator in bottom-left corner
No Color Change - Windstruck mutation doesn't change crop color, only adds subtle grey wind lines around fruit
Easy Acquisition - One of most accessible mutations since it can apply to most plant types
Distance Visibility - Wind effects may not be obvious from distance, hover over crops to confirm mutation
Community Secrets
Summer Update Introduction - Added during Summer Update (June 21, 2025) alongside Gale and Tornado weather events
Most Common Wind Event - Occurs much more frequently than rare Gale weather, making it reliable source for Windstruck
Tempestuous Combination - Windstruck + Sandy + Twisted creates Tempestuous mutation (removes original mutations for 12x multiplier)
Pet Alternative Sources - Pterodactyl pet can apply both Windstruck and Twisted mutations for Tempestuous combo
Permanent Weather Status - Became permanent weather event after Summer Update rather than limited-time feature
Low Multiplier Compensation - 2x multiplier is modest but compensated by high frequency and easy application
Screen Effect Pattern - White tint and particle effects are consistent visual indicators across all wind-based weather
No Growth Rate Bonus - Unlike Rain/Thunderstorm, Windy weather focuses purely on mutation chances without growth speed boost
