💰 Worked Examples: Luminous on a Sunflower

Sunflower base (this site): 50,138₡ at 8.55 kg Luminous only, base weight: 50,138 × 50 = 2,506,900₡
Same Sunflower at 2× base weight (weight is squared): 50,138 × 2² × 50 = 10,027,600₡
Additive stack with 💧 Wet (×2) + Gold (×20): Environmental = 1 + 50 + 2 − 2 = ×51 × Gold 20 = ×1,020 50,138 × 1,020 = 51,140,760₡

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 Luminous 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 Luminous use the homepage calculator formula?

Yes. Luminous 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 Luminous mutation?

Using the Mutation Spray Luminous or Luminous Wand. Can be applied by the Luminous Sprite pet.

Does Luminous stack with Gold or Rainbow?

Yes. Luminous 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 Luminous 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.
