Rice grows at a moderate rate as long as its supplied with plenty of water. Being more dependant on water, rice plants can easily die during periods of drought.

Rice can be grown in hydroponics to yield 5 Rice and 1 Rice Seed when fully grown. They must be replanted after being harvested, using either a Rice Seed or raw Rice. Relative to other food crops, Rice consumes twice as much water per tick, but produces 67% more crop product when grown. As it has similar growth time to other food crops, this means it produces more food per hydroponics tray per time period, and more food per unit of CO2 consumed, but less food per unit of water consumed.
Plants need the following:
- Atmosphere: Minimum atmosphere pressure 7.7 kPa, with traces of CO2 (at least 0.1 mol) and under 1% Pollutant (X).
- Common plants consume CO₂ and produce O₂ at 0.072 mols per minute (0.0012 mol/tick)
- A mature plant won't take damage if it runs out of CO2
- Alien Mushroom, Mushroom, Darga Fern, Winterspawn, Hades Flower, Peace Lily, and Tropical Lily are exceptions.
- Temp: Minimum atmosphere temperature of 0C (293K) is required for growth, under 0C (273K) or over 50C (323K) the plants will die after 5 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 (0.0216)
- Light: either sunlight, or a Grow Light are required for plant growth. A plant won't die or take damage when in darkness, but the growth will slow down cumulatively if improper lighting conditions persist.
- If too much or too little light is provided to the plant, it will begin to accumulate "Illumination Stress" that lowers the efficiency of its growth. It will slowly revert to normal when the plant only if it is in favorable lighting conditions. The amount of accumulated stress can be seen with Cartridge Plant Analyser
- On some planets and in some conditions, the natural sunlight will not be enough for the plant to grow efficiently without accumulating "Illumination Stress". A Grow Light is then required. It can be used along with natural light, to supplement the overall lighting to the necessary levels.
- Optionally: you can increase yield or growth speed by adding fertilizer created in a Portable Composter or an Advanced Composter
