QUICK START

Build a reliable crop cycle

01

Prepare the planter

Place a Large Planter Box or plant pot, add seeds, and provide sunlight or a ceiling light.

02

Balance conditions

Watch light, water, temperature, and ground. The lowest condition limits the plant.

03

Harvest and clone

Harvest at the ripe stage, then clone your best genetics for repeatable crop cycles.

FARM OPERATIONS

Water, genetics, and output

Use these systems together to keep cycles consistent and improve every harvest.

IRRIGATION

Watering and delivery

Keep planter water stable around 60–65%. Too little slows growth; excess water wastes efficiency.

  • Use roughly one sprinkler for every two to four planters.
  • Place sprinklers above the center of the planters.
  • Use pumps for consistency or elevated tanks for gravity-fed water.
GENETICS

Read all six gene slots

Target 3G / 3Y for faster cycles or 2G / 4Y for stronger yield, then clone and preserve that plant.

SCRAP ROUTE

Convert surplus crops

Farming can create repeatable scrap income when your crop cycles stay supplied and protected.

FIELD NOTES

Protect the next harvest

01Clone your strongest plants and store backup clones.

02Keep water stable instead of repeatedly overfilling planters.

03Separate breeding plants to avoid accidental crossbreeding.

04Use Chicken Pies when you want additional farming efficiency.
