Combustion fraction

That is something more like I’m looking for. I’m looking for a large scale 80/100

my layout gives all combustion fraction crop 80% crop and 100% seed yields uniformly

My symmetrical brain could not make the leap between 3-spacing horizontally and only 2 spacing vertically lol :see_no_evil:

How do you do yours?

So 80 crop and 100 seed.

Trying to get no seed loss.

Lava on the bottom of copper-chiseled blocks, 3 spaces horizontally between corruption, 2 spaces “vertically” between corruption. It’s a nice grid shape and has no problems at farm edges especially if you have corruption on the 4 corners in the layout. It is indeed the better setup

Edit - ^^for Solid’s layout

I cleared some crop to show the layout surrounded by glass blocks.

Here’s a screen of what’s beneath the gravel

Okay, I will attempt to try this. Thank you guys. Still trying to wrap my brain around it.

This topic came up just in time, I’m about to rip up my fractions and go over to 80/100 and was kinda dreading my way :joy:

@SolidAtomic thanks for sharing I will be changing my layout to mirror yours also. Is this something I can visit? If so let me know the cords or how to get there please.

I got a portal linked to Portal Seeker on Beckon.

Thanks what’s the name of the portal

doesn’t have a name. It’s the middle one, on north side, right behind portal to Biitula.

All my combustion fraction farm is set for 80% crop and 100% seed, 3 plants wide in a straight line. The ends of the rows I do have to embed extra corruption in the walls so the end caps have the same percentages, but otherwise it’s pretty self explanatory.

Doesn’t the seed on top of the blocks with lava burn off?

Well, clearly it doesn’t, but I know it does with goo if you place it on the bottom of a lava channel block!

I’ve never had problems with lava under my blocks for the inorganics, it does however burn grass off any soils that are adjacent. I’m not sure about the goo, I remember not having an issue but then I’m not goo farming so I’d rather take your word for it. I know the goo lava burns adjacent sponge though

I mainly put lava on the underside of slope-chisel blocks because I have organic crops growing on a layer above and I hate losing precious blocks if water spilling from above happen to come into contact with lava and turns any chiseled blocks with lava in it into igneous stones.

Since fraction kernels are available on standard worlds I’ve just set my farm for max crop @ 220/30. I just go to a couple of caves I’ve saved on Norkyna and gather some kernels every so often.

Yep it does burn goo kernels but combustion and kindling can grow on a block that shares lava even if the lava is on top of the sloped block and the plant appears to be submerged in the lava. Accidentally pour lava on top of the block though and you will burn it.

Hmm, odd.

I wonder of that is as intended?

Doesn’t seem quite right to me!

Can i ask how you get 80/100 at the edges as well?

I’ve been trying out your layout, and get 80/100 everywhere except the edge blocks!

Edit: I worked it out! It was a lava thing only on the corners.
