Hybrids made from a mutant plant splice do not produce the mutant's chemical. For example, crossing recessive Chilly Peppers with grapes will yield grapes with capsaicin, rather than cryostylene. Likewise, recessive rainbow weed yields THC in the dominant plant, rather than LSD.
When one plant in a strain gets a gene strain, all of the other plants with the same common ancestor (harvested or not. They may also be linked to the same pot, as on closer inspection, a second 'branch' that lacks the green grape mutation is unaffected) acquire it. This is particularly bad when your stockpile of perfectly good fruit for seeds suddenly manifests the seedless trait. This makes using mutriant directly a very risky proposition.
Special plant nutrients are taken up at an absurdly slow rate. Directly applying Fruitful Farming Formula and its kin pretty much guarantees you'll have a bonsai plant for the rest of the round, with genetics that suggest a yield of over 100.
