Hello! I have been playing the game for a week now, obtaining... not particularly well-liked plants, and feel like they could be improved/reworked in a way to make it make more sense

Mushrooms

I think mushrooms decaying in the light is a good idea, but the way it was done is a bit weird. For context, mushrooms lose a percentage amount of health every second. My suggestion is to make it a static amount every second so leveling can benefit them more, and maybe to compensate, higher tier shrooms start with more hp but lose more every second

Perks

Perks are cool, but kinda useless. Here's my idea to both make it more interesting and more monetizable

Allow us to spend meteor shards and the big meteor chunks on our unlocked perks to upgrade them, allowing bad perks to become good late-game and giving us more to spend money on.

Also, please rework some plants' perks, pretty much every tier 1 single-use plant has the same perks
