Guide to Hydroponics

Выращивание

Ботаники начинают с несколькими вещами и снаряженеим: анализаторы растений (Plant Analyzer), ведрами (Bucket), граблями (Mini Hoe), автоматом с удобрениями (NutriMax), автомат с семянами (MegaSeed Servitor), экстрактор семян (Seed Extractor), и шестнадцать цветочных горшков. Растения нуждаются в поливе и удобрении. Грибы нуждаются только в удобрении. Сорные растения нуждаются только в воде. Процесс посева и выращивания как таковой, предпочтителен в таком порядке:

Шаги:

1. Взять семена из автомата 
2. Посадить семена в ванночку
3. Ждать

Invasion of the Pod People

Hydroponics get a very special type of seed, Replicate Pod Seeds. These are experimental, genetically engineered plants that grow (physically deformed) human beings. They are easy to grow, but take time just like cloning some one in a cloning pod.

How do I potato people?

Using a replication pod is simple! Just follow the following steps:

1. Find a dead person who is in need of cloning.
2. Take a blood sample with a syringe.
3. Inject a seed pack with the blood sample.
4. Plant the seeds.
5. Tend to the plants water and nutrition levels until it is time to harvest the cloned human.

Caring for your Vegetable Friends

Mushrooms: Just feed these fertilizer, don't need to water them.

Weeds: Just water them, they don't need plant food. Nettles are considered weeds.

Everything else: Feed them water AND Fertilizer.

If you plan to do something else on the station, give all of your plants some water. Plants whose trays are extremely low on water (<30 units) will have a blue exclamation point on their tray. Plants who are low on nutrients (<4 units) will have an orange exclamation point on their tray. If a pot is overrun with weeds (these weeds don't show up as a sprite), a glowing red triangle will appear on the pot. If the plant is dying or dead, a red symbol (it sorta looks like a "do not enter" sign) will appear on the pot. To fix the water problem, take your bukkit, fill it with water at one of the water tanks inside the farm, and pour the appropriate amount of water onto the plant. If a pot is full of water, you will not be able to add any more and the excess will splash onto the floor. To fix the nutrients, replace the solution using the nutrient dispenser, then taking the vial and clicking on the tray. Only do this if the tray needs nutrients. The easiest way to be a Failmer (Fail Farmer) is to replace the solution when there are 9 units left. The excess fertilizer dissapears forever, and the dispenser has a finite supply. Weeds can be removed by clicking on the tray while holding a mini-hoe in your hand. Keep clicking until you see the message "This plot is completely devoid of weeds. It doesn't need uprooting.". If a plant is dead, a single click will empty it from the tray. If your tray decides to sprout some annoying harebell or unwanted crops, a few sprays with the Plant-Be-Gone will kill it, albeit rather slowly.

A very, very, dead plant. Notice the pretty warning signs.

Файл:GrowingPlant.PNG

This plant is still growing.

Файл:HarvestPlant.PNG

This plant is ready to harvest, as noted by the greem "H".

The triangle means that the tray is full of weeds.

Chemicals, Wonderful Chemicals

Certain chemicals do special effects on plants and mushrooms. Either it kills, heals, feeds, or mutates the plant.

Things that you should feed your plants

Unstable Mutagens: Will either effect the potency, kill the plant, or change the plant's species. Does not add toxicity to the water. This is how Ice Peppers are made. Whine to and/or robust the Geneticist to get some of this.

Radium: Lower chance to mutate plants, and causes more ill effects (and toxicity to the plant).

Nutriment: A fertilizer. You can get it from the Chef

Ammonia: A more pure fertilizer. Get it from the Chemist or hack the Nutri-Vend to get this.

Dimethiline: A very powerful fertilizer. Get it the same way you get Ammonia.

Anti-toxins: Makes your plant less toxic. You can get it by whining to anyone who works in Medbay

Cyroxodone: Heals your plant, via miracles. Get it from the Chemist, or find a nice doctor to steal some from cryogenics.

These will kill your plants

Toxins: DUH.

Acids: DUH.

Go Forth and Procreate

This section is about making new plants from existing ones. Remember, the seed dispenser will run dry very early into the round. And if you ask the QM for a seed crate, he will most likely laugh in your face and kick you in the dick for being stupid. So to make more seeds, you will need the help of Mr. Seed Extractor. This little box (located next to the NutriMax) is your best friend in long rounds. It is possible to use your leet Hacking skills on the seed dispenser to get more, but these are all either poisonous or full of space drugs. To extract seeds from a plant, pick up a plant product (Fruit, Vegetables, Shrooms, etc.). Then, click the seed extractor. You will then get 1-4 bags of seeds or mycellium from the product. Then, dump out the contents of one of those shiny hydroponics crates you have, and put the extra seeds inside. This will keep them neat and organized. If you don't want to waste one of your pretty green boxes, steal a crate from the Cargo Bay, or those pointless rooms right next to the mining dock. If a new species sprouts in your farm, keep it alive so you can make seeds from it and grow more.

Analyzing the Analysis

Upon selecting the Botanist, you will find that your apron contains a handy-dandy Plant Analyzer. You use this to get a highly detailed analysis of the targeted plant. The readout looks like this:

Age: How old the plant is. When a plant's age equals it's lifespan, it dies.

Endurance: The higher this is, the lower the water and nutrient levels can get before the plant dies.

Lifespan: How long the plant will live.

Yield: The maximum amount of product it will produce in it's lifespan.

Production: How many products it will produce at once.

Potency: The FLOWER POWER the plant posesses. If it is a chili, this equals hotness or coldness (for ice peppers). For shrooms, this equals toxicity. For drugs, this equals how long it gets you high. For Nettles, this equals damage dealt.

The analyzer also shows you the status of the pot. Weeds and pests can be remedied by hoeing or a few squirts of Pest Spray. Toxicity is important for shrooms, because it tells you how deadly it is. The water and nutrition levels are self-explanatory.
