Automating Pincha pepper plants

[BlueLance]

I recently started using sweeper arms etc, is there a way to make them feed plants phosphorite from the rail? or does it need to go into the little boxes first?

the sweepers need to reach the farm tiles, this can be done from the top

So it cannot be done from the bottom? because the plants are in the way?

it can, just easier from the top

Here's a design that has a sweeper below.  Simple and get's the work done

Sweepers don't pull from the rails, they need a receptacle

A conveyor receptacle with a lower priority than the pepperplants should do the trick

Ahh ok so receptible is the proble, It is looped by a bridge, so I hoped it would have worked.

the receptacle is the vent for solids on a rail.  You can't pull solids off without one
