WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Grow Dust Daisy and Distill Plant Resin
Dust Daisy seeds at Descent to the Underdust, Underdust Laboratory or Tunnels, Underdust Suburbs, or Overgrown Surface Lift; grow aboard.
Before you go
- Dust Daisy seed from a listed location.
- Large Garden Plot.
- Fertilizer and water appropriate to the crop’s displayed needs.
- Distiller with the Plant Resin recipe available.
Farming steps
- Find a Dust Daisy seed at one of the listed Underdust sites and bring it aboard.
- Confirm the Distiller offers Plant Resin; if it does not, discover Plant Resin in the world and check again.
- Plant the seed in a large Garden Plot and supply the fertilizer and water the plot requires.
- Check the crop during growth and water it as needed; multiple watering visits may be required.
- Harvest the mature plant with a knife, noting that a seed may not be returned.
- Place the harvested plant in the Distiller and choose Plant Resin.
- Collect the resin and use it in Epoxy crafting or another recipe that lists it.
- Red liquid at dark bulbs on massive Underdust roots can be collected with an empty liquid container as a direct resin source.
- Use the crop’s in-game needs to confirm fertilizer; standard and Underdust plant requirements can differ.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat with remaining seeds and plot inputs. Harvesting gives only a small chance of another seed, so further batches may require another seed find.
Common mistakes
- Planting Dust Daisy in a small plot: it is a large crop.
- Assuming the Distiller recipe is automatically available: confirm it after discovering resin.
- Expecting every harvest to return a seed: seed recovery is a small chance.
When to stop or switch
Stop when you have enough resin for the planned Epoxy or crafting batch, or switch to direct red-liquid collection if you encounter the documented root bulbs.
