::::::I've got a pretty good counterexample to the idea that a solid soil wall is required underneath an unmuddied soil floor - right now, in my current fortress, I have a fully grown tower-cap growing on a tile of dry black sand between two of my farm plots. If I navigate down 1 Z-level, the area underneath consists of mined-out [[chalk]] (specifically, an archery range with unmined chalk walls separating each lane). I also have 2 other tower-caps which grew on dry black sand such that the tiles immediately below them are black sand ''floors'', mined out to create stockpile space. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 19:50, 18 September 2009 (UTC) | ::::::I've got a pretty good counterexample to the idea that a solid soil wall is required underneath an unmuddied soil floor - right now, in my current fortress, I have a fully grown tower-cap growing on a tile of dry black sand between two of my farm plots.

:::::::I should add, though, that I have several other areas of black sand with mined-out chalk underneath them which have ''not'' shown any signs of plant growth - perhaps it has something to do with proximity to a mountain biome? --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 01:46, 19 September 2009 (UTC) | :::::::I should add, though, that I have several other areas of black sand with mined-out chalk underneath them which have ''not'' shown any signs of plant growth - perhaps it has something to do with proximity to a mountain biome? --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 01:46, 19 September 2009 (UTC) | ||
