Use stones on treeplanter for cave herbs

Post by ErdTod »

These plants grow in rock caves, so why not use stones as "soil" for them? Will add to ways to use excess stones from mining and metal production.

Pretty heavily caps the endgame quality of them though doesn't it?

I guess it could be technically infinite

It does indeed, but i don’t see much to be gained by infinitely raisig the quality of trees and bushes that will always be lower q than surface trees by nature of their growth speed, unless you really like poppycaps

Is it that much worse? I remember it was bad previously because they'd never actually mature. I can't seem to get our farmer to start planting them yet... (guess I should make that farmer alt after all?)

And yes, I really like poppycaps. If they can get up in quality, they'll be one of the better curios in the game. I'm just not sure the quality is sustainable or can compete with increases in other industries.

They have been buffed by adding cave decay.

Theoretically sure. But with 1/10th decay on something that usually takes a week or so...

Yeah I'm just gonna chop them down.
