Description
Only level 3!

This is a Small Solar Greenhouse with two of the farming areas removed and replaced with kitchen stuff. The solar has also been upgraded to handle the power-hungry food processor, and there's a wireless connection.

This is designed to be sunk into the ground to help deal with uneven terrain so hit PgDn until it sinks into the ground and appears stable. Do not spawn it up on the side trusses or it may collapse.

4x3x3 (36) plots is enough to grow 8 Flowers, 7 Pumpkins, 12 Spices and 2 Oranges. That is enough to make 4 emergency rations per harvest with no leftovers. You're then left with 7 plots that can be used for growing plant fiber or whatever you want (perhaps for medicine, or just more vegetables for "quick snacks"). There is an LCD on the wall to remind you of the numbers of plants needed and the plant beds are color coded for this purpose.

I think the solar power should be sufficient in most situations since it's dedicated to only doing this, but as with anything solar you may need to realign panels etc. As is the panels are aimed for equator deployment.

Here's what I calculated out. Rather than figure out the numbers from the dependencies I just threw stacks of 10/20 of each thing in the input and noted how many were missing after making one ration.

4 Emergency Rations
10.5 Vegetables * 4 = 42 / 6 per plant = 7 Pumpkin
4 Fruit * 4 = 16 / 8 per plant = 2 Space Orange
3 Spices * 4 = 12 / 1 per plant = 12 Spice Plants
2 Buds * 4 = 8 / 1 per plant = 8 Big Alien Flower

Maybe I looked at it wrong...sorry.

Hmm... I checked the recipe and that still should be correct.

Thanks. Ok, I'll recalculate it. I tried it in another farm a while back and it didn't come out exactly like it should but I wasn't sure if I had screwed up the counts in that farm or if something had changed. In any case I'll recheck it and fix the color coding etc.

I think the recipe for Emergency Rations has changed...but I still love this BP.
