Even so, If it wasn't for the problematic pathfinding of golems which makes them useless for tree farms and similar things, I would probably have a complete automated farming setup using only Thaumcraft resources and Logistics Pipes. Including the speeding up of growth.
That's partly my issue too. I'd love to have a little army of factory worker golems to move around stuff, just to sit back and laugh manically. Unfortunately, their pathing is about as good as a blind man without a cane.
