WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Dew Collectors and water tank on the Workshop property; Water World in Sandrock for purchases.

Use Dew Collectors for ongoing workshop supply, convert Dew into Water at the Worktable, and buy from Water World when immediate demand exceeds your stored supply. Keep the tank stocked according to current crop and machine needs.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • A Dew Collector, or Gols to purchase Water from Burgess.
  • A Worktable recipe for turning Dew into Water.
  • A water tank and room to store the resulting supply.
  1. Check the Workshop tank and note whether crops or running machines need water soon.
  2. Collect available Dew from each Dew Collector and carry it to the Worktable.
  3. Use the Dew-to-Water recipe to convert the amount your current reserve requires.
  4. Place the resulting Water in the Workshop tank and confirm it is available for use.
  5. When the tank cannot cover an urgent need, visit Water World and inspect the displayed stock and price.
  6. Buy only the amount that fits your current budget and demand, then return it to the tank.
  7. Recheck the tank after irrigation or machine use so the next collection trip is planned in time.

Farming tips

  • Use the shop’s displayed stock and price for the current purchase rather than planning around an assumed fixed offer.
  • Treat Dew as a renewable collection input and purchased Water as a way to bridge a shortfall.

Repeat, collect and use

Repeat Dew collection and Worktable conversion as needed; shop purchases depend on displayed availability and cost. Water is consumed, so this is an ongoing supply loop.

Common mistakes

  • Leaving Dew unconverted when Water is needed does not fill the tank; use the Worktable recipe.
  • Buying without checking the current price can drain funds reserved for construction; inspect the shelf first.
  • Spending the full tank on crops can interrupt machine use; keep a reserve matched to workshop demand.

When to stop or switch

Stop buying when the immediate shortfall is covered and return to the Dew collection loop for routine replenishment.
