Just to add onto this. Crops that have a "Growth" stats of 24 or higher will act as weed. Thus they should not be planted in secluded farmland. It's best to not go over 23 Growth. Which is why i mentionned 2 pages earlier that i use Crop with the following stats: 21 Growth & 31 Gain to...

I currently have most seed bag at 21/31 (Growth/Gain). I use those to cross-breed into 23/31 (since 24+ act as weed.) Thus, i'll give a try to weed-ex. I've never used it under the basis that it make stats lower on crops. But since Pyure claim he never saw any negative effect, i'll go ahead and...

Can't argue you on that. The two reason i went the crop way is because we are only two player on my server and my friend went the Bee route and more dinsutrial. I decided to experiment and learn the crop route and go for a more green approach. We could of disable the weed but i try not to...

Actually, for crops to work well in other biome is simply a matter of fertilizing the soil. After a few seconds (let's say 15 seconds for arguement sake), if the soil if fertilized while there are cropstick on the tilted farmland, nutrients will sink into the soil. Same goes for hydration. The...

Lately, someone asked about Biogas using distillery whether or not it was viable. If you go to page 619 (third posts from the bottom, i posted a picture of a setup i had made that worked quite well. Basically, it consist of 1 MV Gas Turbine which feed (without cable) 1 MV->LV Transformer. In...

Arc furnace your iron ingot into wrought iron. You'll save lots of time.

I use a Dsrk Axe/ Shears with Unbreaking III on them. Can literally gather over 200k leafs (for Biogas) and probably over 50k logs before even needing to repair them. Edit: They are at max level for the 1mil energy of course. And yes Unbreaking III affect the energy used just the same as the HP...

Simply use a battery to power the kinetic generator. Anyway, you won't be using it that long.

I'd recommend Dark Helm since the night vision on it is from magical source thus you don't get blinded from light sources.

ANy armro that has a charge on it (I.e: Lappack, Nano Chest Plate, etc.) You simply right lcick with nyour tool and it will drain the armor to charge itself.

Yes that's how it work. Crop-Matron is used to hydrate & Fertilize crops (using water & Fertilizer) in a diameter of 9x9. ; 1m above and below it. Crop-Harvester harvest crop (if used in conjunction with a Cropnalyzer, it will only harvest fully matured crop. I.E: Stickreed at last stage...

That's exactly what happens. It remove source block and replace them with air block preventing flowing liquid. Take note i have never tested what happen if a block update occure next to such a wall...hmm! Guess what i'm about to do now o.- Edit: So after testing it out, if one of the wall block...

That would be my fault. I was sure Crop-Matron was gated behind HV. My apologies. I've edited my previous post where i would wrongly hint to a crop-matron using HV-voltage.

GT Pump work pretty much the same way. You won't have to worry about water if it start off with Oil. Higher tier pump will also work faster and larger (assuming you would be pumping water or Lava for example.)

Depending on what your looking to grow, it can be ok to start with crop early on as some stuff can be quite usefull (Stickreed for example.) Though i caution against raising the stats too much as high stats crops (i don't know where it begins) require Fertilizer to grow. Otherwise they simply...

Are you using Bee house or Apiary? If i recall correctly, Bee house prevent breeding and only yield.results. Edit: someone correct me if i'wrong. I can't go check at the moment.

Dude...are you crazy?? He's gonna have Greenpeace doing blockades in a matter of minutes! Now i'm going to bed...:p

I'd say no they are not unbalanced or OP considering you can't automate crops until you reach HV. Sure you can grow pretty much of anything but if you have to harvest them manually, it's still gonna take a while. Plus, if you make super crop, you won't be doing anything else other than applying...

The best way to raise crop is definitly to: 1) Be in a swamp biome 2) Be over Y=128 3) Use fertilizer After that, it's just a matter of making "nursery" (2x2 works fine) and use a GT Tricorder to look at the new-bred crop stats. If they are better, keep them to breed new and better stats. If...

After playing with crops and recently finding out how to boost their stats to 21/31/X, i'd recommend bees as they are an easyer certainty while crops are more random though more powerfull. That's my own opinion though.
