Yes, but we can get it down to 1 Tick Max. Doesn't that sound great?

So in a single tick, it's possible to get a whole fucking farm patch planted, grown, and harvested? Oh the times we live in.
Now someone go make this huge scale, first one with screens gets a cookie.

If your modpack has Ars Magica, make a lead, and lead a dryad near your garden and fence her in. She will randomly force-tick plants near her. I don't know never tried this.
A maximum of 2 ticks, more often than not 1 isn't as fast as 1
More harvesters will help...
My current magical crops farm currently uses:
Fertilised dirt,
Lilypads of fertility,
Lamps of growth,
An RoC ground sprinkler.
And for good measure I regularly wander through it with my Sigil of the Green Grove active, but that's just a stopgap until I get the ritual of the same name set up underneath it.

This thread is is...I am just thinking about how magical crops could abuse this
Well, considering it allows you to basically grow diamonds, coal, and a whole heap of other stuff, it would be epic.
I guess you could make some normal farms such as wheat or carrots to make power from biofuel, culinary generators or such, and then just make fuck tonnes of resources from the magical crops.

I had a similar setup for wheat when I made a brewery. I think it made me around 85000 wheat in an hour or so.
Anyone know how much lag this'll generate though? All the particles may rape FPS but I'm not sure about server load...
Oh no... you can do better... The lilypads work up to 4 tile above them according to the wiki. So you can build an artificial lake full of them underneath your farm patch.
I have a new goal for Phoenixcraft

Which one?
I use the RoC one but the openblocks one works via the bonemeal mechanic and so it won't work on magical crops (which can't be bonemeal'd) or netherwort (as far as I know)

The ratio of cropland to harvesters alone in this setup is all it takes to catch my eye. Jebus.
That must be interesting to watch.[DOUBLEPOST=1403794603][/DOUBLEPOST]
I can't tell if you already know this, but fwiw, the RoC one bonemeals magical crops properly.
hrm, interesting. Not sure how that works, given that bonemeal is meant to have no effect. *scratches chin*
On another note, I think i'm going to need to change my farm setup. I currently have my lilypads of abuseability under the farmland (with the lamp of growth above and harvesters round the outside). Apparently ritual of the green grove affects plants above it, so I think i might have to move the lilies. :/
It looks like Reika's not bothering with the actual bonemeal mechanic: the bonemeal is consumed as fuel, and he increments the growth of plants. In other words, he's not really "bonemealing" so much as using bonemeal as a fuel to rapid-grow plants. If you get the distinction.
A minorly interesting fact from the wiki. Lilypads of holyshitthat'shilarious actually have an effect up to 4 blocks above them.
So I can just move their pond down a block and slip the ritual stones in directly below the farmland for fun and giggles.
It also means the cabling for the planters is no longer in the way
PS. Redstone control for the rituals? Yes please
PPS. Anyone know if master ritual stones will accept redstone signal from an enderIO conduit thingy? It's my goto solution for wiring in tight spaces.
PPPS. What is the horizontal range on the ritual? Is it only active above the 3x3 footprint of the ritual stones? If so, i'll need a few more of the bloody things
Update:
EnderIO redstone conduits between a block with a lever and each of my master ritual stones apparently won't deactivate the rituals. Is that a mod incompatability or something about it being a persistant signal rather than a timer?
Also the wiki says each should use 20LP/s. Try more like 500 if the numbers my divination sigil was showing were correct.
