Rainbow Variant

The rainbow variant is a crop carrying the Rainbow mutation, which gives it a shifting multicolour appearance and multiplies its sell value by roughly fifty times. It is considerably rarer than the Gold mutation and one of the most prized base-tier appearance mutations.

Rainbow and Gold share a mutation group and are mutually exclusive, with Rainbow replacing Gold when both would apply, so a crop shows only the stronger Rainbow effect. Because Rainbow stacks multiplicatively with other mutation groups, a Rainbow crop that also carries weather effects can be worth an enormous number of Sheckles. Rainbow versions of valuable crops are accordingly sought after by traders.
