About this mod
Farm in the beginning can be excited, but after some time, it just doesn't fell like a good way to spend our time inside the game.
This mod bring more mechanics related to plants, and how to get resources from them.

💭 Planting and harvesting in Starbound is a lot of fun in the beginning, when vegetables are new and all we want is to make a perfect vegetable garden! This feeling usually goes away with time, when we realize that plants are just infinite food factories, and when we wait several minutes to water again, or just leave the sprinklers on infinitely waiting for the next harvest.
My goal with this mod is to bring more mechanics related to plants, and how to get resources from them, adding new watering steps without increasing the total plant growth time, making gardening a fun action, not tedious. Possibly in the future, I'm still thinking about implementing better mechanics for using harvested vegetables, cooking, and also farm animal stuff, making these actions a really essential part of the Starbound experience! 💭
🍃 New growth stages of fruiting plants, requiring more frequent watering.
🌱 All plants revert to an intermediate stage when harvested.
🍂 Plants can now rot, requiring your crops to be harvested at the right time.
🥀 Rotten plants generate only seeds, and turn the plant into one of the initial stages.
🚿 Watering cans can be used while the player is walking, but now require water to use.
💧 Sprinklers now consume water, and can be placed on the ceiling, allowing top-down watering indoors.
🍽️ Vegetables eaten raw are now a lot more nutritious.
⏲️ Raw vegetables now have shelf life more realistic and consistent with their characteristics, most lasting longer, and a few lasting less.
💰 Items such as coffee, rice and wheat now have the icon of a bag of grains, giving the item more realism.
🌳 Modified growth time for saplings, which now take ten to twenty minutes to grow.
🫐 Added 'Alien Fruit Plant' species, removing alien fruit from trees in Alien biomes.
💫 Added 'Crop Processor' station to turn wheat into flour, coffee powder, sugar cane into sugar and cocoa into cocoa beans.
☕ Added 'Coffee Machine' station, a fully functional appliance that transforms coffee powder into a delicious drink, which can also be mixed with milk and chocolate.
