Storing these items in Refrigerated Storage objects halts this process indefinitely. These crops will slowly go bad over time in the player's inventory and normal storage devices, eventually becoming inedible and useless Rotten Food. The best way to store crops depends on whether the crop is a "raw" food type, which can be eaten by itself, or an "ingredient" food type, which requires a crafting station to make it into something edible.Ĭrops that can be eaten "raw" (like Carrots, Pineapples, Corn, Tomatoes, Boneboo, etc.), may only store a single item per inventory slot, which rarely exceeds a pixel value of 100 or more. Seeds for Toxictop can only be found on the Toxic planets. Seeds for Coralcreep and Reefpod can only be found underwater on the Ocean planets. Flowers which yield petals are another example of a plant which gives off no seed. Some wild plants cannot produce seeds, such as Thorny Plant and its Thorny Fruit crop, but most food or resource-producing plants can have seeds harvested from encounters with wild specimens. carrots, potatoes, wheat, etc.) will also be destroyed in the harvesting process, dropping their seeds for replanting, but other crops will revert back to stage 2.įlowery Grass Seeds and Grass Seeds can also be planted on wet tilled soil to grow grass, but they cannot be harvested, only destroyed. Harvesting a fully-grown crop will drop 1 (60% chance) or 2 (40% chance) of the following: the crop's "fruit" (89% chance), 1 Plant Fibre (10% chance), and the crop's seed (1% chance). If the "use" command does not release the seed of a plant, the Matter Manipulator will.ĭestroying a crop that is not yet fully grown will return the crop's seed. Seeds available depend on the type and tier of the planet you are collecting them on. Seeds can be found from gathering in the wild, as a reward for completing a quest, collecting from Tenants for rent, and by stealing from tilled fields in NPC villages. It is most easily purchased from Lana Blake at the Outpost. Players may optimize their underwater farming by using a Swimming Augment, otherwise harvesting and sowing crops will take much more time and patience. With this, the player can collect water and place it into any artificial lake, as desired. Toxictop is the only other type of crop found on Ocean-type planet (the Toxic biome), but it is found on the surface and it is not an underwater crop.īoth of these require water above the tilled dirt blocks, and if the depth of the water above the tilled dirt blocks goes below 3 blocks, the underwater crops will be destroyed, dropping only 1 crop seed each regardless of growth stage.Ĭreating an environment in which to make an underwater farm is much easier after acquiring Upgrade 1 in the Matter Manipulator expansion slot, allowing the collection of liquids. These are also the only crops that do not benefit from a sprinkler. Reefpods need to be replanted upon harvesting, while Coralcreep do not, but both of these seeds are only found in the wild in the waters of Ocean-type planets (but not Arctic).
There are two types of underwater crops, Reefpods and Coralcreep. Since underwater crops require extra effort, their sell price is also somewhat higher than most open-air crops. It is possible to have an underwater garden, and these also require a hoe to make underwater blocks tilled. Tilling soil has another effect: it eliminates the possibility of monsters spawning on those blocks. The top of the tilled block must be watered surrounding the sides and bottom with water will have no effect.Ībove-ground crops require open air above the tilled dirt blocks, and if too much water accumulates, the crops will be destroyed, dropping only 1 crop seed each regardless of growth stage. Your plants will grow no matter where you are in the universe (you can even grow them on your ship).Ĭrops can be grown on any color of dirt that has been tilled with a hoe, then watered by using a watering can (either a Wooden Watering Can or a Painted Watering Can), Matter Manipulator-collected Water or Healing Water (but not Swamp Water), fallen rain (as long as it is not physically blocked), or a sprinkler.
You will know that a crop is harvestable because it will become highlighted when the mouse cursor is floating over it.
Crops are plants that grow wildly and can be cultivated for food and resources.Įvery crop type has its specific growth times and stages.
