Winter crops

Delving into the raws, it seems some plants can grow in winter. Muck Roots, for instance. We'll need to update the chart to allow this. The chart will, in general, need some work. For instance, Quarry Bushes can only be cooked after they've been processed; how should that be put on the chart? This page can easily be filled in from the raws, but only after the chart is made more comprehensive... Fieari 03:24, 30 October 2007 (EDT)

  • Stuff like Quarry Bush Leaves can just go in the "Other Uses" column.

Standardization of individual crop pages

I thought the previous wiki had great entries for the individual crops. How can we get the sidebar to appear just like the last wiki?

We should standardize the arrangement of information for the individual crops so that readers can easily obtain information as it is presented in a consistent manner. I think we should also include the basic value of each crop and how it can be multiplied. --Rockjianrock 11:02, 3 November 2007 (EDT)

Categorized Crops

How useful would it be to have a list of crop sorted by standard usage? From all the plants in game, we can easily figure out a few subgroups:

Edible raw (fruits/vegetables? can also be cooked unprocessed)

  • Plump helmet
  • Muck root
  • Bloated tuber
  • Prickle berry
  • Wild strawberry
  • Rat weed
  • Fisher berry
  • Sun berry

Clothing

  • Pig tail
  • Rope reed

Flour/Sugars

  • Cave wheat
  • Longland grass
  • Whip vine
  • Sweet pod (a special case, has its own workshop action to make syrup)

Leaves (not brewable)

  • Quarry bush

Dyes (generally not brewable)

  • Dimple cup
  • Blade weed
  • Hide root
  • Sliver barb (also a special case, as it can be brewed. otherwise the same)

Alchemy? (not brewable)

  • Kobold bulb
  • Valley herb (can be cooked raw?)

I find this list more useful for making complex stockpiles or workflows.. Whether you care if the seeds must be planted underground or above ground, it's a property of the seed stockpile anyway. Note that "cookable" or "brewable" is not a group itself but a simple yes/no flag, but usually a common property of an entire group. Too bad we can't make template stockpiles ;)--Sergius 13:35, 12 January 2008 (EST)

The easiest way to do that is by having an article for each crop with (say) Category:Dye crops included in the relevant articles.GarrieIrons 21:39, 12 January 2008 (EST)

Values

Plump helmets have a value of 4, no? 2 (for being a plant) * 2 (plump helmet value)

Since the brew column uses the value of a single plant, brewed, it would make sense to show the total value of a single plant before brewing, rather than the material multiplier from the raws.

Also, since 5 units of syrup is produced from one sweet pod, shouldn't the value of syrup be listed as 100 instead of 20?

Bloated Tubers grow in what?

How is a dry wetland possible? Are the wet/dry designations referring to whether or not the plant grows next to bodies of water? Might want to clarify that. If so, do aquifers directly below the surface make tiles "wet?" unsigned comment by Xonara

Almost makes one wonder if that table came from DF2D. Research will have to be done on that <_< (PS: remember to sign your edits) --GreyMaria 21:05, 19 November 2008 (EST)
Well, the matgloss does say [DRY][BIOME:ANY_WETLAND]. We do need to know what exactly [DRY] means. Random832 21:40, 19 November 2008 (EST)

Crops Table

Quick question regarding the nice and shiny table - is the heading row meant to be blacked out or is it some settign on my pc? --Ustio 06:29, 20 November 2008 (EST)
