Neotuck Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 After my attempt at building heated sleet wheat farms for dupe comfort... (check link to see post) ...I decided to try the same thing on pincha pepperplants The O2 in the greenhouse in range of the farmer stays at an average 20C while the hydroponic farm tiles are heated with 50C water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abud Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 I might actually use this setup, or at least use most of the basic idea from this build. Pincha is the only plant I can use because there is too much meat lately. If I use sleet instead, I won't have lime for steel. How your sweeper can work underwater? If I'm not mistaken, I got flooded with my sweeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The row of tiles the Sweepers are in must have only a very small volume of liquid. A tile isn't considered Flooded until, what, 500 kg/tile?

Lifegrow Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 So you're cooling water to keep the o2 cooled within the room, before putting it in pincha plants, then heating up a separate pool of liquid to heat the plants up again ? Are you high? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you high? never cooled the water, it was already cold and this was just an experiment in debug to see if I can keep farmers comfortable without using cool vest or exosuits and no I don't get my stash till Friday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Requires cold water -> warms that water -> consumes that water -> has to heat the cold that was caused by that water... That was my point Maybe just me, but that seems crazy?

Carnis Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Imo all of NT builds are crazy on Mats/space/implementation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abud Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Just don't take it as it is, add some grain of salt xD Most important things are basic idea. If I'm going to replicate this, I will remove entire top water. Because I use 90C PW for all my pincha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulwind Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Since peppers need polluted water, you could probably set it up to cool the clean water and heat the polluted water at the same time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denisetwin Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 My pepper farm issue is always keeping them hot enough without resorting to heaters, this hot water at top is a great idea, I think I have a geyser close that outputs hot water, could set it to run in the top and keep the plants hot enough while cooling down the water a bit at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
