ACNH Guide On Hybrids

[Cheallaigh]

okay i admit i'm colourblind... i do see colours just not on the same spectrum as most people, but since both my hubby and i are seeing the same thing(i really need to dig it up to see the name next time i get my hands on his switch), but he has a blue tulip. it's not one of those shades that confuse me, it's distinctly blue like the windflower blue not purple. i have no idea how to get pics off of the switches as of yet(yes i have been slacking on that).

It's probably the purple one.

To get an image of the console you have two options:
1. Using the Nintendo Share feature by having a linked twitter account
2. removing the micro SD card (if applicable) and inserting it into a computer to upload to an image hosting site.

well it's not the actual colour though, it's the same shade as your font in your sig pretty much. or the blue roses/windflowers etc.

Far as I'm aware, there's no blue tulip in ACNH though. Only default colours along with pink, orange, black and purple.

I do believe it is time for this thread's evening bump.

Omg, thank you for this. Every guide I've seen has either been way too complicated or too simple and doesn't actually contain all of the information.

Time to go re-arrange my flowers.

It's not a perfect guide, but I made it the best I could.

If it’s just a bud you can dig it out and the whatever color it is will display in your inventory you

i finally raided hubby's island and dug it up, while it is definitely blue for looks between both TVs and switches... it does say purple... lmao his comment was "but it's BLUE, that's not purple!". still love to know how he is managing to get all the hybrids, while i'm working my fat little toon butt off and he doesn't even water... or pay attention to them, except to complain they're taking over his island. you should have heard his complaints the "one" time i got him to actually water my setup... told me next time just grab his switch and do it myself lmao.

I find that Purple flowers look Blue at night time.

 

[Khaelis]

Afternoon bump!

 

[Khaelis]

It is time for that daily evening bump.

 

[Khaelis]

Very late morning bump, cause I slept in! e-e

 

[Khaelis]

Evening bump! Added small section on Golden Roses.

Something to add, as I've been experimenting with making purple pansies myself. 6.25% is too low for my liking, so I tried to get it to a reasonable 25% rate. You can do this by the following:

1. Hybrid Red + Blue = Special Blue (25%) + Blue (25%)

Test:
2. Blue Offspring (from step 1) + Yellow (seed) = Special Orange (50%)

The non-special blue pansies will ONLY produce yellows from this step. So throw away the blue pansies if you don't see an orange after a few attempts.


3a. Special Blue + Special Orange = Purple (12.5%)

3b. Special Blue + Special Blue = Purple (25%)

Fun fact: The special blue pansy you create here is identical to the blue pansies you find on hybrid islands

I believe the google document I have linked in the OP covers something similar to this, I just decided not to include it because it might be more confusing than it needed to be, especially considering the blue rose section.

There are a lot of unique ways to get hybrids in this game, now that we know how the genetics work. A friend of mine has been messing around with purebreeding and she found a method of making 'fake' island orange cosmos via a path that requires no additional testing for duds, just for black cosmos.

Regardless, I'll add this to the OP.

Yeah I know it’s a bit confusing, but I’ve never seen this method discussed. The document only lists Hybrid red + Hybrid red as the combo for purples along with every other guide I’ve seen. It’s fine and much simpler, but only a 6.25% chance compared to 25%.

And yeah I’m sure there is! I’ve only messed with purple pansies so far. The only way I can see this being done without testing is the same Hybrid red + Hybrid red combo has a chance to produce the same Special blue (6%). It’s a bit lower, but that’s an alternative method if you wanted to go that route.

Ah, I forgot to do an evening bump. I'm disappointed in myself.

Here's the late evening bump, I suppose!

Can the mods make this a sticky thread? It's one of the most useful threads on this forum, and most people wouldn't even know it's here if it's not being constantly bumped. It also helps for lurkers to find it, since I believe most guests only look at the first page.

 

[Sloom]

I've bookmarked this thread as it's super helpful and thought I'd offer a bump here as well. agree with raz, this is real useful info and deserves to be seen by more people.

also, as a hybrid growing noob...
how does cloning work? is there a specific list of hybrids that can be cloned? can all of them be cloned? I don't really get how it works, all I know is putting all my blue hyacinths together makes more blue hyacinths lol
