Best ways for a very fast essence farm?

[idriveby]

I know of fertilized earth, Time Torch(dartcraft) is unfortunately disabled here.
Lilypads of fertility and apparently growth lamps.

Trying to get a really fast setup going here since I lost all day doing dartcraft for a torch that doesn't work haha, any other suggestions would be great!

Sucks that dartcraft is disabled for ya. Time torch is the best thing ever... Sprinklers from open blocks I think speed up crops, rotary craft sprinklers definitely do. What pack are you playing?

Timewood cores from Twilight forest, using a watering can on a 3x3 of lilypads of fertility, blood magic ritual of some such, and I'm sure there are more but can't think of them atm.

Rotarycraft Fertilizer works if u have it in the pack or MFR fertilizer.

I think you are already reaching the point of diminishing returns when you spam the pads.

Don't forget Ritual of the Green Grove below your crops

Thaumcraft lamps of growth also.

Not traditional, but you can make MFR mob spawners and grind pecks. They drop stupid amounts of beans. Also they drop armor so you can repair it and melt it down back into ingots for easy iron/gold.

4 Lamps of growth from thaumcraft, Only a 9x9 farm with like 1 plant of each essence. They grow almost instantly, I have over 10,000 essences of each type.

Just setup a MFR tree farm, have it set to get leafs, and burn those for the herba needed.

@kaovalin & @Tyrindor

I am under the impression they are speaking of Magical Crops essence and not TC essentia.
At least I think that's the case.
