Gold Seed
Plants a random shop crop with Gold mutation.
Gold Seed changes the outcome of planting: it produces a random Seed Shop crop with Gold rather than letting you select a particular species. The mutation outcome and the crop roll are separate parts of its value.
How to get Gold Seed
Special-seed pickup/reward. Community weather documentation associates the pickup with Gold Moon; exact spawn rules and collection odds require checking in game.

Uses & strengths
The benefit is Gold mutation on the resulting plant, not a guarantee of a particular high-rarity species.
A special seed is an outcome modifier, distinct from a seed pack that rolls a listed loot table.
The resulting species determines the eventual harvest behaviour and value.

Planning a Gold Seed planting
Collecting one does not guarantee the rarest shop plant. Judge the resulting crop after it appears, then use that actual species and harvest type for a sale-value calculation.
- Compare the up-front acquisition cost with actual harvest frequency and the space the plant occupies.
- Confirm the source and currency in the current item prompt before committing resources.
- Weight, mutations and freshness can affect the actual fruit payout. A rare seed does not guarantee a profitable harvest.
- Track your own first-growth and regrowth intervals under your actual pets, gear and weight conditions before estimating earnings per hour.
Trading & world limits
Seed cost and fruit reference value are not player-trade prices. Current transfer, auction, gifting and retained-pack rules were not tested. For an event crop, verify its permitted world and inventory before trading or moving it.
