"Build" a dirt road on top of them, it leaves the moss floor "furrowed" which is fine for building a farm.

it says i cant because there is no soil also im talking about dense floor fungus that spawns naturally in the cavern biome

hmm what exaclty do you want?

caverns have a floor and there things are growing on it.
you can build floor on top of that, if you want to build a more home-like place.

You can't. You can remove the plants, muddy the floor by dropping water on it, and then building your farms.

But you can also do it with any other stone floor inside your fortress.

sorry if title was misleading i want to farm in the caverns on the fungi floor but there are plants that cant be harvested or chopped im asking if there is a way to remove them so i can make farms that aren't all jagged and disconnected

sorryyy maybe i wasnt reading the whole stuff >.<

hmm as i know, you can build a dirt-road above it or floor tile and then remove ...

also, Cavern floor and Stone-mud-floor are of the same nuturing-quality. so its possible to water some normal stone floor and build farms from them.

its also possible to do that with a bucket-brigade (wiki reffering) ... so in this case you just nee a source of water to build your famre everywhere :)
