📌 When to use Ancient Amber
Ancient Amber is a fusion/aging environmental mutation. Build the ingredients on the same fruit; Cleaning Spray undoes a mis-stack.
📐 How to Get the Ancient Amber Mutation
Trigger (from our mutation data): Final aging stage of Amber (Amber to Old Amber to Ancient Amber over 3 days total).
Fusions need both ingredients on the same fruit (Cleaning Spray can remove a mutation if you mis-stack). Amber ages on the plant; do not harvest if you are waiting for Old/Ancient Amber.
💰 Worked Examples: Ancient Amber on a Sunflower
Numbers use the site formula Base × (Weight/BaseWeight)² × Growth × (1 + Σmutations − count) and Sunflower's listed base. Plug a live crop into the Grow a Garden calculator for other weights.
🔗 Stacking & Best Combos
Once Ancient Amber is on a fruit it follows the additive rule with other non-growth mutations: 1 + Σ(multipliers) − count. Gold (×20) or Rainbow (×50) then multiplies that total. Cleaning Spray (Gear Shop, listed on stock) can strip mutations if you need to rebuild a fusion.

❓ FAQ
Does Ancient Amber use the homepage calculator formula?
Yes. Ancient Amber is a fruit modifier at ×50, not a crop and not a pet. Plug it into the Grow a Garden calculator with a real kg. This FAQ does not repeat the intro paragraph.
How do you get the Ancient Amber mutation?
Final aging stage of Amber (Amber to Old Amber to Ancient Amber over 3 days total).
Does Ancient Amber stack with Gold or Rainbow?
Yes. Ancient Amber is not a growth mutation, so Gold (×20) or Rainbow (×50) can multiply it. With other environmental mutations it uses 1 + Σ − count first, then growth.
What crop should I put Ancient Amber on?
Any crop uses the same multiplier. Worked examples on this page use Sunflower (50,138₡ at 8.55 kg) because that crop is also the Dawnbound reference. Weight² usually moves the number more than swapping a mid-tier crop.
Plug Ancient Amber into any crop, weight, and mutation stack for the real number.
