Crossbreeding is the core mechanic for obtaining new resource crops and improving existing ones.

Breeding Mechanics

To crossbreed, place two fully grown parent crops with an empty set of cropbars between them. There is a chance (default 10%) that the empty cropbars will sprout a new crop type based on the parents.

Crop Traits

Every seed has hidden traits that determine its efficiency. These must be identified using an Identifier machine or an Advanced Analyzer.

Trait Effect
Growth Determines how fast the plant reaches maturity.
Sensitivity Affects how easily the plant is affected by negative environmental factors.
Productivity Increases the amount of resources dropped during harvest.
Fertility Increases the chance of the plant spreading to adjacent cropbars.
Water Range Determines how far the plant can be from a water source (starts at 1 block).
Temperature Tolerance Allows the plant to grow in biomes outside its native temperature range.
Light Level Reduces the minimum light required for growth.

Resource Crops

By breeding specific combinations, you can unlock crops that drop resource particles (e.g., Iron Particles), which can be compressed into ingots.
