Sup guys and gals.

I was wondering, ever so offen have i seen lots of automatic humus contraption. Yet everytime I make it, it ends up in a cluster fuck.

Here is my "proof of concept"

Is there any way to make it smaller, with wheat and saplings as the only materials?

I'm not seeing a macerator, centrifuge, nor a peat farm, so I'm not sure where you're getting your replacement dirt from.

The macerator is right before the sorting machine, and it does work.. but it just fills a bit too much for my taste. was hoping for a more compact solution. four wheat surrounding a dirt block gives compound, which surrounded by dirt equals humus, thus no peat.

So... considering what I think you're trying to accomplish, I have a question.

Why not skip the Hummus and just use a self-fueling Steve's Carts tree farm instead? Pretty sure it can achieve the compact-ness you're wanting.

Or you could create a tree farm entirely using RP2. I built one before based on this one (not my video)

and it was really effective.

That rp2 farm is amazingly complicated, Its neat but way too much work for something to generate wood.

I'm really in to complicated stuff, but considering the space it takes up. I'm not sure it's worth it.
