Greenhouse requirements

[Chronicles]

Anyone have some information of oxygen/carbon, temp, pressure requirements for the different crops?

I have controls over everything in my greenhouse, check my video:

Thats video is nice, but it is more a show off than actual explanation.
I would like to know the answer to OP question too.

I have a functioning Greenhouse in my main base

1 mixer of N2/O2 then to another mixer with CO2 : totals 30% N2 - 66% O2 - 4% Co2
- 20 to 25 degrees in the room
- water pipe going through one AC then to the hydroponics ( the ac might not be required)
- lots of sun
- 100-102 kpa room pressure

Bare minimums as I tested last night for ferns and wheat. Wheat is the one to concentrate on right now. Though I think corn may use similar stats.

40 kPa atmosphere of minimum 1% CO2

No more than 0.5% X.

Windows for sunlight.

Water. As low as 500 kPa in your hydroponics trays will work. I found that 7 chunks gave me 4 MPa when put into four trays. I think that's enough water for ten or twenty trays minimum.

Temp of at least 10C.

I'd recommend not having your arc furnace in the same room. The first time you smelt iron your crops are dead.

That greenhouse is more or less for testing crops, all I know, crops died always when the temperature was under 15 C

I will do a tutorial how to build it, but it will be very long and boring tutorial

Saddamo.
Maybe a diagram would be better.
Something simple with some specs.
The one you provided on the furnace helped me alot.

My main save greenhouse is running at 30c. Was at around 30kpa and I had the water trays “charged” to 50kpa using a pressure regulator Have had several crops of wheat corn and ferns to stock up.

I “siphon” the oxygen that’s produced out and move it over to the main base tank for use there. The chickens are over in the main base because I was not sure if they would eat the plants out of the trays

I will try, but it will take a bit of time 45 chips

Just a thought, if chickens also produce CO2, then put them in a small room next to the greenhouse and connect with a pipe and passive vents on each end. Maybe a second pipe with passive vents and a pressure regulator (since they only pull 100w vs 200w for volume pumps) to speed air flow a bit between rooms.

temperature range for Wheat seems to be about 14 to 53 degrees
I have been able to grow it with 7 kpa.

While we are at it, does anyone know the ranges for the "ideal" requirements for wheat? I saw someone mention that they managed to get a crop that yeilded 3 instead of 2 I was wondering what those ranges are to get 3x instead of 2x
