Growing

Tomatoes can be grown in hydroponics. When first planted, they will yield 3 Tomatoes and 1 Tomato seed once fully grown. As a perennial crop, tomatoes do not need to be replanted, and will reset to the fruiting growth stage once harvested. After the first harvest, they will yield only 1 Tomato per harvest, rather than 3. The seed stage of growth occurs after the fruiting stage, both initially and when regrowing, and since the tomato plant does not need to be replanted when harvested, they can be harvested after fruiting but before seeding to approximately double the production of Tomatoes at the cost of not producing any further seeds. Like most food crops, Tomatoes can be grown from either Tomato Seeds or raw Tomatoes.

  • Atmosphere: Minimum atmosphere pressure ~35 kPa, with 1% Carbon Dioxide and under 1KPa Pollutant (X).
  • Consumes Carbon Dioxide and produce Oxygen at 8.64 mols per hour
  • Temp: Minimum atmosphere temperature of 0C (273K) is required for growth, under 0C (273K) or over 50C (323K) the plants will die after 2 minutes.
  • The ideal temperature range for maximum growth speed is between 20-30C
  • Water: 5-60 Degree Celsius to avoid taking damage
  • Plants require Water, but consume only ~0.043 mols per hour
  • Light: A Grow Lights are required for plant growth. For avoiding damage tomato needs 8 minutes of light per day, and 5 minutes of darkness per day.
  • Optionally: you can increase yield or growth speed by adding fertilizer created in a Portable Composter or an Advanced Composter
