Ten days of testing-server screenshots. Dozens of leaks. Most of it noise. Here's what's actually confirmed, what's still a coin flip, and what to skip worrying about.

↖ Confirmed Seeds & Pets

Not everything in the leak batch is real. Here's what's holding up under scrutiny.

Takeaway: if a pet leaks, don't expect it fast. Eagle proved that — ten days between discovery and appearance is the norm here, not the exception.

Bone Blossom is bait. Every real crop name fits the Rose/Blossom/Bloom pattern cleanly. This one doesn't. If it ever resurfaces as Bone Bloom, that's the version to actually believe.

↖ Briar Rose: The One Everyone's Waiting For

This seed has been ready for two updates and still hasn't dropped.

• Rarity: Mythical
• Price: 50M shekels
• Weight: ~40–50kg based on hold animation

50M for a Mythical is steep. Either the harvest payout justifies it, or the price gets cut before launch. We've seen this pattern before — overpriced Mythicals rarely survive community backlash untouched.

↖ New Gear: What's Actually Useful

Grappling Hook math is simple: if it costs more than a cosmetic like Rainbow Carpet, players skip it. Utility doesn't beat perceived value in this game's shop.

↖ UI Changes: Auction Button Incoming

New Auction button is getting added to the top row. Seed/Garden and Sell buttons are shrinking to make space.

This matters because top-row placement = core system, not a side feature. If they're rebuilding the whole button layout for Auctions, Guilds deserves the same treatment — the systems already exist in testing.

↖ Mutations & Weather: The Reliable Leaks

Mutation leaks hit before the seeds that trigger them almost every time. Current batch:

• Pizza Moon — built for Admin Parties, unused since none have run
• Secret Mutation — likely tied to future secret-rarity seeds, same lane as Star Fruit
• Chained Mutation — function unknown
• Pizza Mutation — function unknown

Also spotted: early signs of an Exotic rarity tier above current top rarities. New rarity tiers take months to ship historically — don't expect this next patch.

↖ Guild Shop: Weekly Crates Confirmed

Seven Guild Crates spotted in testing = weekly restock cycle almost certainly incoming.

If you're grinding guild competitions right now, this is your reason to keep at it — the payoff system is already built.

↖ Trading System: The Real Game-Changer

Mailbox never let you trade seeds. This new system does — crops, pets, seeds, all tradeable.

• Traveling Trader — rotating high-value NPC deals
• Trade Tokens — new currency, separate from shekels

This is the biggest leak on the list. A real trading economy changes how everyone plays, not just how you farm.

↖ Garden Levels: Still a Mystery

No confirmed mechanic yet. Could track harvests, shekels, or plot size. Whatever it tracks needs to reward something existing systems don't already cover — otherwise it's redundant.

↖ FAQ

↖ Is Briar Rose actually releasing?

Yes. Fully confirmed in testing with pricing locked. The two-update delay is a timing issue, not a cancellation.

↖ Will Bone Blossom be real?

No — it's a decoy. Watch for Bone Bloom instead; that name fits the real naming pattern.

↖ What does the Auction button mean for future updates?

Top-row placement signals a major system expansion. Guilds likely gets the same treatment soon.

↖ Does the trading system replace the mailbox?

No — it adds seed and pet trading the mailbox never supported. Mailbox stays for gifting.

↖ When is Exotic rarity coming?

Not soon. New rarity tiers historically take months of development after first appearing in leaks.

↖ Bottom Line

Trading and guild crates are the real headline here — everything else is seasoning. Briar Rose, Romanesco, and Thorn Rose are locked and just waiting on a release window. Save your shekels for Briar Rose now; skip the Grappling Hook until it gets cheaper.
