Which Crops Work in a Growbed?

The Growbed accepts five crop families: Cotton Plant, Pigment Flower, Potato, Tomato, and Carrot. Redbeet, Banana, Blueberry, Orange, Broccoli, Pineapple, and Chili are outside its supported seed list.

That makes it useful for a compact mobile supply of potatoes, starter food, paint ingredients, or Cotton. It does not replace a high-value field when the goal is advanced crop trading.

Power, Water, and Placement

  1. Reserve a 5 × 5 footprint and keep the two-block height clear above the mounting surface.
  2. Connect the required power source before loading the seed.
  3. Supply water and confirm the bed changes state before leaving it unattended.
  4. Test one complete growth cycle before installing several beds on a moving vehicle.
