With the Grow A Garden Crafting Update, we got one new gear item within the Gear Shop; the Cleaning Spray, and the Cleaning Spray has multiple uses, both in your garden, but also for helping you craft new and exclusive items. Keep on reading to find out all about the Cleaning Spray, and why you need to be very careful with it.
What Is The Grow A Garden Cleaning Spray?
The Grow A Garden Cleaning Spray is a brand new gear item within the Gear Shop, where it sells for 15,000,000 sheckles, or you can pay 139 Robux.
The description within the game, is kinda vague, and reads:
“Cleans mutations off fruit! 10 uses”
I was really excited about the idea of a cleaning spray, as I personally hate the look of the pollinated mutation on some fruits.
I love my Moon Blossoms, but thanks to the pollination mutation, they’re all gray colored, and it makes multi-mutated fruit gray in general, and as it’s only a x3 multiplier, so I’d rather have the gray color gone, and lose the x3 mutation.
With the Cleaning Spray, you pay 15,000,000 for it, and one Cleaning Spray will allow you to clean five individual fruit. It’s not like the Honey Sprinkler, in that it works on the surrounding area. With the Cleaning Spray, it’s five single fruits for 15,000,000.
The Cleaning Spray is rated as being a “Divine” gear, but it is in stock permanently. The Master Sprinkler is also a Divine gear, but it is never in stock, so I’m not sure why the Cleaning Spray has a Divine rating, when it’s as common as the trowel or recall wrench.
When you equip the Cleaning Spray, it’s a handheld spray with a long nozzle, and you walk up to the fruit you want to “clean”.
If you go near a favorited fruit, you get a pop-up message, which will tell you “Can’t clean favorited fruit”, so if you want to clean a fruit you have used the Favorite Tool on, you’ll have to remove the favorite first.
I decided to try the Grow A Garden Cleaning Spray on my golden pineapple, because I hate, hate, hate the “frozen” mutation on my crops.
It gives them ugly, giant ice cubes that put your entire garden in shade, and you can’t see the other mutations, like Disco, Rainbow or Shocked, because the ugly giant ice cubes darken everything, and ruin the aesthetic of your farm.
Before I used the Cleaning Spray, this giant pineapple was gold, pollinated, frozen and voidtouched.
I assumed, when you used the Cleaning Spray, you’d be able to choose which mutations you would be cleaning. It is 15 million sheckles after all.
Wrong. It instantly removes every single mutation you’ve ever had on that fruit.
So, please be super careful when using the Cleaning Spray on your most valuable mutated fruit.
My Moon Blossoms have between eight and ten mutations right now (over three weeks), and I probably would’ve cried if they’d been wiped of every mutation with one click of a button.
There’s no mention whatsoever within the description in the Gear Shop of how it works, and how it cleans every mutation, as you could be wiping billions (even trillions) off the value of your fruit, if you don’t know that it does remove every single mutation in just one click.
Luckily for me, it was just a pineapple, and whilst it was probably a loss of millions, it could have been a lot worse.
What is funny though, I used the spray, and within thirteen minutes it had become frozen again, so it was a futile exercise anyway, and it cost 3 million sheckles to do, for thirteen minutes, so to me, it’s not worth it whatsoever.
You can use the Cleaning Spray to make useful recipes with the Bizzy Bear craft bench, so it’s not completely useless, in my opinion, but I would be so, so careful using it on your fruit.
