Weather is one of the systems that makes Grow a Garden feel alive instead of static. Different weather patterns can speed up growth, trigger mutations, and change what kinds of outcomes are possible on a plot during a given session. Once you start caring about mutation stacking or timing your farming around specific boosts, weather becomes something you pay attention to instead of just background atmosphere.
This weather catalog keeps those effects in one place. It includes standard, event, admin, and other tracked weather entries so you can quickly see what each weather type does, how it affects crops or players, and whether it belongs to normal gameplay or a more limited system.

FAQ
Why include admin and event weather on the same page?
Because they are still part of the game''s weather system and often explain mutation screenshots, special effects, or limited mechanics that players run into. Splitting them out would make the weather list less useful as a full reference.
Does weather only affect growth speed?
No. Many tracked weather entries also influence mutation application, visuals, status effects, or temporary world behavior, which is why the effect and details fields are both kept in the catalog.
