Multiblock Rubber Tree Plantations

[DWLooney]

Hi, I just have a few questions pertaining to multiblock rubber tree plantations.
-Will they get "holes"behind another block?
-Will the rate of regeneration speed up?
-What about if I moved the block with a p-gun? Would it still regenerate and collect?
Thanks!

I have no answer to any of those questions but with the smallest size multifarm if you plant appropriate rubber trees(with at least 2 holes) and if you put around 8 of them you'll be swimming in rubber for nearly no fertilizer cost.
As for the regeneration rate I don't think it changes it in any way(but of course the machine will harvest as soon as it pops).

I know that portal gun can move rubber tree blocks and sill cause them to generate sap.
I don't know how that interacts with the new multiblock tree farms.

As someone who has exploited this to keep up with rubber demands, I can say the farms will single tap any holed tree block in the area. I currently have a 1-and-a-bit layer rubber farm that nets a LOT of rubber.
