Getting Started[]

Let's go over the basics first, by getting you acquainted with the basics of gardening. Click on any of the items to learn more about them.

GARDEN RELATED EQUIPMENT
Small Garden Pot	Pipe	Sprinkler	Clean Water
Big Garden Pot	Pipe Socket	Large Sprinkler	Dirty Water
Small Water Tank	Cross Pipe	Pipe Water Generator	Organic Fertilizer
Large Water Tank		Pipe Connected Membrane	Dust Fertilizer

To begin, all you need is a Small Garden Pot, a Seed, and some water (clean or dirty, it doesn't matter). Put the Seed and the Water in the Pot, wait a bit, and voila, a new plant has grown that you can harvest! It's as easy as that. You can speed up the growth of plants by using Organic Fertilizer (or even faster with Dust Fertilizer)

You can find a few types of seeds from Seed Bags, and later on, Seeds Tubers, but for the most part, you'll get seeds around 30% of the time by simply harvesting a plant. Lets go over a chart showing what each seed looks like, and information about what it grows into.

Sprinklers! Water Tanks! Advanced Stuff![]

Okay, you want a more advanced system. Put a Sprinkler on the ceiling, and put a Pot below it. Place a Water Tank near the Sprinkler, and run a Pipe from the Water Tank's Output to the Sprinkler's Input. Remember: Pipes can't float; they can only move along the floor, wall, and ceiling. Water Tanks are a great way to start your journey with Sprinklers before you can automate water production, though you will have to fill them by hand with bottles. Visit a Greenhouse- they have water pits with 1,000 Dirty Water in them, all for the taking! Position your plants under the Sprinkler as best you can, and you're good to go.

If there's a wall in your way, you'll need to use a Pipe Socket to get through it. Pipe Sockets are basically a "hole" through a wall, floor, or ceiling. Be careful about placing Pipe Sockets too close to the ground, as the pipes might snap to the corner of the floor, rather than your pipe socket. Move them up the wall a bit to prevent this.

Once you get a Pipe Water Generator, you can get large amounts of water pumping into your Airship and lessen the amount of time you spend filling the Water Tanks. You don't actually need Water Tanks at this point, but it helps to have that buffer. Unless you don't have walls on your Airship, you'll need a Pipe Socket to pipe the water inside through your walls.

You can turn Sprinklers on or off at will, and you can even daisy-chain them together! Be careful not to chain too many together, however. The exact amount of water and number of Sprinklers that each Water Generator can provide is subject to change over many patches during Early Access, so for now, see what works best for you!

A final note on Cross Pipes; You can use them to cross two lines of liquid (water or fuel). These do not act like a splitter, rather, they do what their name suggestion: They allow you to cross 2 different pipelines.
