Planting outdoors?

[Captain Brendig]

Has anyone done this? I know that one must be in the right biome, my planet is cold with downpours, with naturally occurring Gravtino balls. Yet if I try to plant one, the game tells me that I am in the wrong biome. Ideas?

You can only do planting indoors, not outside.

Ah, thanks. Not yet implemented...

In the right environment, growing outdoors works fine. My base is on a toxic planet, and I grow the Temerarium fungus (puffball) outdoors - planted in the ground.

Do you have screenshots of it? Strange that you can do that?
No mods or changing the limitations of the base building?

It's not strange at all, just read the descriptions.

Besides, if you want to plant any plant in the ground (PC or PS4) build them as normal. Remove planter boxes. remove cuboid room. Because the plants arent attached to the room, they dont vanish when the cuboid gets removed.

It'd be much simpler if they just increased the build limit so we didnt have to go to those lengths to circumvent it though (on PS4 at least).

Confirmed you can plant outside. You can plant indigenous plants anywhere you like outside. If I want more of these on the hill, I can do it. And dig it up later.

I'd have to imagine the planet's scan from space should include the resource harvested from the plant you're trying to plant... meaning, if the planet doesn't normally posses Coryzagen, then you probably won't be able to plant Skywort outside.. However, if it does grow Skywort naturally, should be no problem planting it outside unless the game mechanics just don't support it.. in which case Asmosis may have found a work around...

I was based on a 'nuclear' planet and raised crop after crop of Skywort (Coryzagen) in the yard. I imagine if you have a plant that requires a specific atmosphere and you have it, you can grow it - one plant species per planet. I got tired of burnin zinc every time I went outside so I left.

Thanks for the tips. I will give the Gravitino another try this weekend. I have a moon listed in my notes, but I don't remember what it's like and the only notes I wrote down is that is a sh*t h*l*. Will have to go back and check it out again. However, I am not going to inconvenience myself over this, since I do have two farming annex's, one with a bit of everything, and the other with three levels each dedicated to carrion, temerium, and albumen, respectively.

Tried out the Coryzagen on an icy planet, success. Went home and success with the Gravatino spheres. Went to my local moon from h*ll, and the puffballs seem to grow.

@Asmosis thanks for the tip!
