So I have added the weed-ex, fertilizer and cells to the AE system but I'm having two issues.

First is that I have my scrap production being automatically turned into scrap-boxes and fed to my mass fab, can anyone think of an easy way that when fertilizer is needed it can get some of the scrap without disturbing the mass fab?

Also I am using p. export buses on transvectors that are linked to the crop-matron to feed the stuff it needs however unlike a ME interface, the export won't craft the items it needs to export (it will only take whats already in the system), how do I make it more like an ME interface, without using one?

I think you have that backwards. The ME Interface is kind of like a flexible chest that can take inputs to the network or have specified items to keep supplied it it's inventory. The Precision Export Bus is redstone-affected, can move "singles, stacks, single/craft, craft only" with I believe 8 definable slots to specify exports.

I'd recommend a chest or barrel somewhere with a storage bus attached for scrap and a level emitter switching the export bus into the mass fab. You can keep whatever amount of scrap on hand with all excess allowed to craft into scrapboxes and fed into UU production. A chest or ME Interface with an export bus set to crafting the fertilizer boost recipe switched by a level emitter to keep whatever stockpile of fertilizer you like.

Don't get too attached though. UUM as we know it vanishes in MC 1.6.4 with new mechanics around liquid UUM.
