Greetings everyone, i'm looking for a renewable way to generate dirt
so far, in the past, i've tried having a 1 chunk turtle sugar cane farm, the turtle would then craft the cane into plantballs, and store it in a barrel which could then be ground into dirt, or fermented into fuel

i'm wondering if anyone has some more efficient ways to generate dirt?

a couple ways i would like to try

have a cultivation or flatification terraformer running, have a turtle patrol back and forth over the sand, and dig any dirt up, and replace with new sand - this would likely be super power intensive and low yield

have many cultivators running, collect sludge from them, and boil it into dirt and other products

any other ideas?

thanks

Make a T5 witch soul shard to get redstone and other goodies. Make a tome of alkahest, and then setup a fabricator(XYCraft) with the recipe of Tome+1 Redstone+1 Dirt= 17 Dirt. You will be getting 16 dirt per 1 redstone, and with the witch soul shard, you should never run low on redstone.

As a bonus, free redstone :D
