I'm looking for a very good and efficient Mana bean farm setup. And I have a small one, but I want to increase it to it's max potential and I'm not sure what the most efficient setup would look like.

And I think I need some different golems for 'max potential'. Atm I'm using a Flesh one and a Wooden one. I think I should go tallow or something.

Any idea's, maybe your own setup :)?

One harvesting golem and one gatherer (or other itep pick up mechanism, e.g. fans &hoppers) should be enough, just add MOAR LAMPZ!

My setup is mana beans with a MFR Planter and a MFR Fruit Picker. Golems are cool, but I have a industrial grade need for mana beans, so... yeah.

Another thing I set up is a Mana Bean recycler in my Thaumcraft basement. It's a turtle that just repeatedly plants Mana Beans in front of it and breaks them. Whenever I notice that my bean stocks are out of balance, e.g. I have 5 stacks of one but only just over 1 stack of another, I take a stack of each of the ones that I have lots of and load them into the turtle. It places, breaks, and spits the resulting bean out and into the conduits to go to the right barrel. I probably won't need to do this now that I've gone from 2 lamps to 12, as I should be getting enough of each.

I cannot tell you if this is true code wise. But 4 lamps hitting the same area seems to be the sweet spot of maximum potential growth with no waste. This is just off of observations and no real research so I may be wrong.
