How to use the Grow A Garden trade calculator

The Grow A Garden trade calculator values each bundle with the exact in-game sell formula — squared weight scaling, environmental mutation sums, rare mutation products, the whole stack. Add up to a dozen items per side, toggle every mutation on the crop's icon, and the verdict updates live.

Fairness verdict bands

Even (±10%) — accept. Slight gain / loss (10–30%) — usually accept if you need the items. Heavily in your favor (+30%) — close fast, they may cancel. Likely scam (−30%) — refuse and report. Mid-trade icon swaps are an instant decline.

Why most "fair-looking" trades are scams

The two most common Grow A Garden trade scams are mutation icon spoofing (using a Burnt crop to look like Cooked) and weight inflation claims ("trust me, it's 4kg"). The math doesn't care about claims. Enter the real weights and mutation icons you see in the trade window. If your friend is offended you're using a calculator — they were the scam.

This tool focuses on crops. For pet-for-pet or sprinkler-for-crops trades, also reference our trading guide and the pet database — pets trade by ability tier, not just rarity.

Trade FAQ

How does the trade fairness scanner work?

We value each bundle using the live in-game formula, then compare totals. A trade is fair within ±10%, generous outside that, and a likely scam beyond ±30%.

Should I trust offers from random players?

Always run them through the calculator first. Most scams disguise low-value Common-rarity items as 'Mythical-looking' through mutation labels — the math doesn't lie.
