Crops in The Long Night come in several different categories. Depending on your civilization, you will only be able to embark with either surface or subterranean crops, but all civilizations can grow all crops if they obtain the appropriate seeds. Note that while they are not all plants from a lore perspective, for the purposes of game mechanics they are all "plants" and are grown at standard farm plots.

=== Native Plants ===

 +
Native plants grow naturally on the surface, having evolved for the harsh conditions of the Megastructure. They grow in moist areas of the megastructure during Summer and Spring, and come in two varieties: moss plants which cling to life in the rare mossy areas of the megastructure, and the silicate plants that dot wastes and voids. They can be farmed, but have little value compared to their alternatives. Their main advantage is that unlike most plants, they are frequently found growing naturally. In addition, moss herbs are the only source of tea, a special drink that provides a stimulating effect rather than the usual intoxicating effect of alcohol.

Crops

Crops in The Long Night come in several different categories. Depending on your civilization, you will only be able to embark with either surface or subterranean crops, but all civilizations can grow all crops if they obtain the appropriate seeds. Note that while they are not all plants from a lore perspective, for the purposes of game mechanics they are all "plants" and are grown at standard farm plots.

Native Plants

Native plants grow naturally on the surface, having evolved for the harsh conditions of the Megastructure. They grow in moist areas of the megastructure during Summer and Spring, and come in two varieties: moss plants which cling to life in the rare mossy areas of the megastructure, and the silicate plants that dot wastes and voids. They can be farmed, but have little value compared to their alternatives. Their main advantage is that unlike most plants, they are frequently found growing naturally. In addition, moss herbs are the only source of tea, a special drink that provides a stimulating effect rather than the usual intoxicating effect of alcohol.

Farm grubs, rats, and fish are animals which are raised in tiny spaces for protein, while compost fungus is a utility crop which is fed off of human waste to produce edible fruiting bodies which can then be processed into psychotropic drugs at a still.

While not the most appetizing, the majority of pan-humanity relies on vat-farmed protein to survive. Many value vat protein for its affordability compared to other more palatable food sources. Farm grubs are sometimes even ground into protein slurry and drunk as a cheap alternative to alcohol.
