WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Where to farm
Farmland within working range of a Granary at your base.
Aloe farming is a crop-production loop: assign Aloe to Farmland, supply what the plot requests, then collect the harvest. A nearby staffed Granary can handle planting and harvesting when it has the necessary supplies and capacity. The available information does not establish Aloe’s use, seed return, growth time, or special temperature range, so plan around what your own plot displays and the harvest you can confirm. Keep planting seed available before using or storing the crop elsewhere. This guide covers producing Aloe at your base; it does not assume a particular crafting recipe or benefit.
Water and fertilizer matching the plot’s displayed requirements.
A Granary and assigned worker if you want nearby plots tended automatically.
Storage space for harvested Aloe and reserved planting seed.
Acquire Aloe Seed before assigning the plot.
Place Farmland near the Granary, or prepare to tend the plot yourself.
Select Aloe as the crop for that plot.
Read the plot’s requirements and provide its indicated fertilizer and water.
Assign a tribesman to the Granary if using automated tending.
Keep the Granary supplied and leave capacity for collected crops.
Collect Aloe from the plot or Granary storage, and retain seed needed for another planting.
Farming tips
Use the Aloe plot’s own displayed requirements; fertilizer and water needs vary by crop.
Keep planting seed apart from harvested Aloe so it remains available for replanting.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat planting and collection while you have seed, the required fertilizer and water, and space for output. A seed return from harvest is not established, so preserve planting stock yourself.
Common mistakes
Planting without Aloe Seed; obtain seed first, then assign the crop.
Using a different crop’s fertilizer assumption; follow the plot’s displayed needs.
Using or moving all planting stock; reserve seed before sorting the harvest.
When to stop or switch
Pause Aloe production when you have enough confirmed harvest for your current plan or cannot maintain the plot’s displayed inputs.
