What is the Bigger Buttercup in Grow a Garden?
The Bigger Buttercup is a limited legendary crop introduced during the Buttercup Quest Event in Grow a Garden Roblox. This stunning plant features a tall green vine with multiple Buttercup flowers growing along it, making it both beautiful and valuable. As a legendary rarity plant, it stands out from regular crops with its impressive selling price of 1.3 million Sheckles per harvest.
Unlike some permanent crops in the game, the Bigger Buttercup is a single-harvest plant. This means once you harvest it, you’ll need to plant new seeds to grow it again. That’s why many players try to obtain multiple Bigger Buttercup seeds during the event period. The plant also has various mutation possibilities that can increase its value even further, making it a favorite among serious Grow a Garden players looking to maximize their Sheckles income.
How to Get the Bigger Buttercup?
Through Buttercup Chest (Free Method)
The free way to get Bigger Buttercup seeds is through regular Buttercup Chests, which you can obtain by completing the Buttercup Quest Event. Here’s how it works:
First, head to the center of the map where you’ll find Brooklyn, the NPC who runs the Buttercup Quest. He gives daily quests that require you to find and deliver specific colored Buttercup plants. You can change buttercup colors using mutations, which counts toward quest completion – a handy trick that saves you from planting hundreds of seeds.
Each completed quest earns you Buttercup Coins, the event currency. Once you collect 3 Buttercup Coins, you can trade them to Brooklyn for one Buttercup Chest. These chests have a 35% chance to contain a Bigger Buttercup seed, plus a small 0.1% chance for the ultra-rare Rainbow variant.
Through Exotic Buttercup Chest (Paid Method)
If you want faster results, Exotic Buttercup Chests offer a premium option. These chests cost real money (Robux) but come with better overall drop rates. Here are the current prices:
- 1 Exotic Buttercup Chest: 149 Robux
- 3 Exotic Buttercup Chests: 429 Robux
- 10 Exotic Buttercup Chests: 1249 Robux
- 50 Exotic Buttercup Chests: 4999 Robux
Exotic chests have a 26% chance to drop the Bigger Buttercup – slightly lower than regular chests, but they also include other valuable items like the Pink Bunny pet and have better chances for the Biggest Buttercup (5% vs 1% in regular chests). Plus, there’s still that 1% chance for a Rainbow Exotic Buttercup Chest.
Understanding Buttercup Quest Event Mechanics
The Buttercup Quest Event is your gateway to earning free Bigger Buttercup seeds. This limited-time event centers around Brooklyn NPC, who gives daily quests requiring specific colored Buttercup plants. The brilliant part is that you don’t need to plant hundreds of seeds hoping for the right color – mutations count toward quest completion!
Here’s how to maximize your quest efficiency: Plant a decent number of buttercups (50-100 should suffice), then use mutations to change their colors to match Brooklyn’s daily requirements. Common quest colors include white, black, blue, and red buttercups. Each completed quest rewards you with Buttercup Coins, which you can save up for chests.
Pro tip: Some players report that planting every buttercup you have and letting the Pink Bunny pet eat the extra colors can help you complete quests faster. The bunny pet, which has a 25% drop rate from Exotic chests, actually helps manage your buttercup inventory by consuming excess plants.
Bigger Buttercup Value and Worth
Is the Bigger Buttercup actually worth your time and effort? For most players, the answer is yes! At base value, this legendary plant sells for about 1.3 million Sheckles – that’s serious money in Grow a Garden. But the real value comes from mutations.
With the right mutations, your Bigger Buttercup can sell for much more. Popular money-making mutations include Abyssal, Acidic, and Affluent, which can multiply your base selling price significantly. Some players report mutated Bigger Buttercups selling for 5-10 million Sheckles or more.
However, remember that it’s a single-harvest crop. This means you’ll need to decide whether to sell immediately for quick cash or save seeds for future planting. Many experienced players recommend getting at least 3-5 Bigger Buttercup seeds during the event – one to sell, one to plant, and extras as backup or for trading.
Best Mutations for Your Bigger Buttercup
Mutations can dramatically increase your Bigger Buttercup’s value, but which ones should you aim for? Based on community feedback, here are the most profitable mutations:
- Abyssal Mutation: Creates a dark, mysterious appearance that players love
- Acidic Mutation: Gives your plant a toxic green look with higher value
- Affluent Mutation: Literally makes your plant look more valuable and increases selling price
- Aurora Mutation: Creates a beautiful rainbow effect that’s highly sought after
- Ancient Amber Mutation: Gives a fossilized appearance with premium pricing
To get mutations, you’ll need mutation items or use environmental factors around your garden. The Grandmaster Sprinkler, which is the best gear in Grow a Garden, can help increase your mutation chances. Some players also recommend planting your Bigger Buttercup near specific environmental elements to trigger certain mutations.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
When hunting for Bigger Buttercup seeds, many players make these costly mistakes:
Mistake 1: Not using mutations for quests – Don’t plant hundreds of buttercups hoping for the right color. Use mutations to change existing plants’ colors to match quest requirements. This saves time, seeds, and garden space.
Mistake 2: Selling your first Bigger Buttercup immediately – While tempting, consider keeping at least one seed for future planting. Remember, it’s a single-harvest crop, so you’ll need seeds to grow more.
Mistake 3: Ignoring the Rainbow variant – Though rare (only 0.1% chance), the Rainbow Bigger Buttercup is incredibly valuable. It’s worth taking a few extra chances at chests for this possibility.
Mistake 4: Not checking daily quests – Brooklyn offers new quests every day. Missing even one day means losing out on valuable Buttercup Coins.
Mistake 5: Overplanting – You don’t need thousands of buttercups. A well-managed garden of 50-100 plants with smart mutation usage is more efficient than a massive, chaotic field.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get black buttercups for quests?
Getting black buttercups is easier than you might think! Instead of planting hundreds of seeds hoping for black ones, use mutations. Plant regular buttercups and apply mutations to change their color to black. This counts toward Brooklyn’s quest requirements and saves you tons of seeds and time. Many players recommend using the Cape Buffalo mutation or similar dark mutations to achieve the black color quickly.
Is the Bigger Buttercup worth the grind?
Absolutely! The Bigger Buttercup sells for 1.3 million Sheckles at base value, making it one of the most profitable plants in Grow a Garden. With mutations, you can increase this value to 5-10 million Sheckles or more. Even if you’re a free-to-play player, completing daily quests for Buttercup Coins is a manageable grind that pays off significantly. Plus, as a limited-time plant, its value may increase after the event ends.
Why didn’t I receive my buttercup coins?
This is a common issue players face. Usually, it happens because you haven’t properly completed the quest requirements. Make sure you’re giving Brooklyn the exact color and quantity of buttercups he requests. Also, check that you’ve actually turned in the quest – sometimes players complete the task but forget to speak with Brooklyn to claim their rewards. If the problem persists, try rejoining the game or checking if you’ve already completed the daily quest limit.
Can I get multiple Bigger Buttercups?
Yes, you can get unlimited Bigger Buttercup seeds during the event! Each chest you open has a chance to contain one, so there’s no limit to how many you can collect. Many experienced players aim for at least 3-5 seeds to ensure they have plenty for planting, selling, and trading. Just remember that each chest opening is independent, so even if you get unlucky at first, keep trying – your chances don’t decrease.
What mutations work best on Bigger Buttercup?
The best mutations for Bigger Buttercup depend on your goals, but community favorites include Abyssal, Acidic, and Affluent for maximum Sheckles value. If you’re going for appearance, Aurora and Ancient Amber mutations create stunning visual effects that other players love. For the best results, use high-quality gear like the Grandmaster Sprinkler to increase your mutation chances, and consider the environmental factors in your garden to trigger specific mutation types.
