Want to learn everything about what’s going with Moon Mango in Grow a Garden? The Grow a Garden community is frustrated with a recent update, and it’s all because of one seed called the Moon Mango. Players across YouTube, Discord, TikTok, and other platforms are sharing their complaints, and it’s clear this has become a major issue in the game.
This article breaks down why the Moon Mango has upset so many Grow a Garden players, whether it will be buffed, and if it’s worth buying right now.
What Happened to the Moon Mango in Grow a Garden?
When the Moon Mango seed was first added, its base price was 200,000. That seemed fair for a rare seed. But shortly after release, the price dropped to 40,000, and then dropped again to just 23,000. For something that costs 1 billion sheckle or 999 Robux, that feels way too low.
Meanwhile, other seeds like the Beanto have a base value of 18,000 and cost 10 million sheckle, which is much cheaper than the Moon Mango. And if you want a prismatic Beanto, you can just buy one in the shop for 715 Robux. You can get a Beanto much faster and easier than the Moon Mango, which relies on the Twilight Shop even appearing in your game.
What Does the Community Think?
On TikTok, the creator Jandelle posted a short video that received a flood of comments asking for a Moon Mango buff. When someone commented “Please buff the Moon Mango,” Jandelle actually replied with “okay.” This gives players hope that a buff may come soon, possibly even in the next update.
On the Grow a Garden Discord server, the Moon Mango is being talked about nonstop. One player summed up the frustration by saying the Moon Mango went from 200k to 30k, and each seed costs 1 billion. For comparison, the Candy Blossom averages 120k and each seed costs 10 million.
So, why is the Moon Mango so weak in value while being so expensive to get? That’s the question everyone is asking.
Comparing Moon Mango and Beanstalk
To get a better idea of how they compare, let’s look at a celestial frozen Moon Mango and a celestial frozen Beanstalk. The Moon Mango sold for 5.3 million, while the Beanstalk sold for 3.9 million. That might make the Moon Mango seem stronger, but there’s more to consider.
When you look at the trees, a Moon Mango tree usually grows about four to six fruits. A Beanstalk plant can grow around eleven. That’s almost double the output.
So, even if each Moon Mango sells for more, the Beanstalk still makes more money in total because it produces more crops. That makes the Beanstalk a much better deal for most players.
The Problem with the Cost
Let’s break down the prices:
- Moon Mango Seed: 1 billion sheckle or 999 Robux
- Beanto Seed: 10 million sheckle
- Moon Mango Value: 23,000 base price
- Beanto Value: 18,000 base price
The math just doesn’t add up. You’re paying much more for the Moon Mango for a very small increase in value. Plus, the Twilight Shop, where you can get the Moon Mango, doesn’t always appear. That makes the whole process slow and frustrating.
Some players are still buying it just in case it gets buffed in the future. If the shop disappears later, they’ll already own the seed. If you’re thinking about buying it, you might want to do it now and just wait.
Is the Moon Mango Totally Useless?
Not completely. If you manage to get lucky mutations on your Moon Mango, it can still be valuable. For example, one player had a super strong Beanto with gold, bloodlit, celestial, moonlit, and frozen traits. It weighed 13kg and sold for 100 million. If that same build was on a Moon Mango, it would sell for 140 million.
So the potential is there, but the average Moon Mango tree does not produce enough fruit to match that kind of power. If you had 13 of those Beantos, you’d still be making more money than having six Moon Mangoes with the same stats.
How to Improve Your Moon Mango Tree
If you still want to get the most out of your Moon Mango, there are a few things you can do.
- Use Sprinklers: These boost growth speed, mutation chances, and fruit size. Bigger fruits are worth more money.
- Get Watering Cans: These speed up growth when planting new seeds.
- Try the Sprinkler Glitch: Here’s how it works:
- Remove all fruit from your Moon Mango tree.
- Place one of each sprinkler type around the tree.
- Leave the game for 30 to 60 minutes.
- Return and check for bigger fruit.
One player used this method and got a Moon Mango with disco, celestial, frozen, and shocked mutations. With more mutations added, this fruit could become very valuable.
Also, make sure to buy harvest tools if you see them. They are divine rarity, and it’s not clear if they’re supposed to be in stock all the time.
