Magicthize Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Last night we had a sudden need for alot of Dandelion Yellow but had virtually no flowers. We eventually just transmuted Cactus Green a bunch of times but given that way is dreadfully inefficient I was wondering if anyone had any ideas if it would be possible to set up a way to farm flowers?

Teraku Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Bonemeal and BC fillers set to clear the area. Other than that, there's no way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have my flower farm setup in much the same way as MFR farms. 5x5 area of grass with a MFR harvester (+2 upgrade), but with a dispenser filled with bonemeal facing up where the planter would normally be. I use a PRC as a timer and "AND" gate set at about 20 seconds with 2 x AE level emitters to keep 1024 of both yellow and red flowers in stock. Bonus output of lots of seeds from the tall grass.

Magicthize Posted June 20, 2013 Author Share Posted June 20, 2013 Interesting. I might try the same myself. Would it be too much of an imposition to ask for a pic of your setup for reference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a quick cutaway view I just mocked up. Pic 1 shows the dispenser facing upward. Pic 2 the system working. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magicthize Posted June 20, 2013 Author Share Posted June 20, 2013 Just as a follow-up, how is the PRC configured? Try as I might I can't get my head around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty ugly logic as I slapped it together in a hurry. Page 1 Square Wave with 255 input (I think this is around 20secs) -> Var1 Page 2 One Shot of Var1 (Pulse Former) -> Var2 Page 3 Nand of the two Level Emitters -> Var3 Page 4 And Var2, Var3 -> output to dispenser.

Magicthize Posted June 20, 2013 Author Share Posted June 20, 2013 It's beautiful because it works. I had tried for about an hour to get it to work myself and came nowhere close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
