Greenhouses in Solarpunk Allow players to protect their crops from rain and storms, preventing their hard work from being destroyed by the forces of nature.
Glass and wood are the main materials needed to build a greenhouse, and they are fairly easy to obtain once you know what to do. Here's the breakdown.
How to get and upgrade backpacks in Solarpunk
In Solarpunk, players can expand their inventory space by collecting backpacks and two backpack expansions. Here are their locations.
How to build a greenhouse in Solarpunk
- Requirements: Glass Material (Unlocked at Tier 4 Research Table)
The basic layout of the greenhouse Solarpunk is as follows:
-
Foundation
-
Wall (glass/wood)
-
glass ceiling
Glass can be obtained by mixing sand in a furnace. You can find an unlimited amount of sand on the northwest island of Suru Island.
Greenhouse construction
first, Choose a large open area where you want to build a greenhousePreferably one where you have extra room for expansion.
next, Build a base along the perimeter of the greenhouseLeave a large open space in the center where you can plant soil and crops. The larger the area, the more crops you will be able to plant in your greenhouse.
Use a spade for Build farmable tiles In the central area. This will give you an accurate idea of how many plants you will be able to grow in the greenhouse.
If the farmland is too small for your needs and you want to expand further, break the foundations in the direction you want to expand and expand the perimeter as needed.
The most aesthetic and optimal layout for farm tiles we've ever found Solarpunk there is one 3×3 tilesWhere the central tile is left blank and reserved for the sprinkler.
Once you are satisfied with the layout, Build walls on the outside of the foundation. Both wood and glass walls can work to build a greenhouse. This is because as long as the roof tiles are made of glass, sunlight will shine through and crops will be able to grow.
When the perimeter is secured, Building a glass ceiling To enclose the top of the greenhouse, turning the building into a truly safe structure.
At this point, the main purpose of the greenhouse is accomplished. All the crops kept inside it will be protected from rain and lightningAnd will not be destroyed no matter what the weather outside.
Placing sprinklers
While you can certainly water the crops using a watering can SolarpunkThis is a huge time sink and extremely tedious. Automatic watering with sprinklersOverall making it very convenient.
If you use a 3×3 grid layout in your greenhouse as shown above, you should already know where to place the sprinklers: in the middle. Once the sprinklers are in place, Use cables to connect to supply them with electricity.
From our experience, windmills are the most cost-efficient energy sources SolarpunkBut solar panels can also work in a pinch, especially since they're so easy to make. Each sprinkler costs 40 power, so plan accordingly.
Cables can go through solid structures, so don't worry about leaving room in your greenhouse door for them.
How to expand a greenhouse
- Requirements: Growbox (Unlocked at Tier 6 Research Table)
There are two ways in which you can expand greenhouses Solarpunk To produce more crops. The best way to expand your greenhouse and increase the space available for cultivation is to add more floors to the structure and expand vertically.
This can be easily achieved Placing growboxes on the roof of the greenhouse And use it to grow crops instead of planting crops in the ground. Growboxes are inexpensive to build and do not hinder the growth of plants growing at the base level.
Since they are the same size as the Farmland clay tiles, you can use the same layout as you used in the first level and keep everything organized. This way, you can Add as many floors as you need And keep expanding vertically as long as you want.
Alternatively, if you have free space in the area around the greenhouse, you can dismantle the walls and foundation and extend it horizontally. You don't have to worry about the rest of the structure falling down. But, land Solarpunk It is difficult to get here because all the islands are small. Therefore, this type of expansion can only work on a small scale.
