Overview

The Greenhouse is a Harpy-themed Food Production building that has to be placed on Fertile Soil. Greenhouse is not a farm. It is a production building with a placement restriction, so it does not benefit from Planting and Harvesting speed increases in any way.

The Greenhouse is unlocked at level 16.

Strategies

• Compared to the standard farms (Plantation, Small Farm, Herb Garden, Brineworks), the Greenhouse has many advantages:
  • The Greenhouse has an excellent recipe set for producing a wide variety of Complex Food, while the other farms struggle with specific recipes.
    • The Plantation cannot be used to produce ingredients for  Flour, which is needed for  Pie and  Biscuits, and lacks a recipe for  Porridge ingredients.
    • The Small Farm cannot produce ingredients that can be combined with  Flour to produce  Pie and  Biscuits, and its recipe for  Pickled Goods and  Skewers ingredients is very inefficient.
    • The Herb Garden has a very inefficient recipe for  Flour,  Pickled Goods, and  Skewers ingredients.
    • The Brineworks cannot be used to produce ingredients for  Flour and has a very inefficient recipe for  Jerky,  Pie, and  Skewers ingredients.
  • The Greenhouse is not dependent on the timing of the Seasons to produce goods, allowing for consistent production without micromanagement.
  • The Greenhouse can efficiently produce food using only 4 tiles of Fertile Soil.
• Some disadvantages of the Greenhouse include the lack of an  Oil ingredient recipe and its reliance on a steady supply of  Drizzle Water for production, which could increase the number of workers needed to produce food compared to traditional farms.
• The Cornerstone Moss Broccoli Seeds is rarely worth it compared to choosing a different cornerstone or declining it for free  Amber.
  • The Greenhouse already produces  Mushrooms and  Herbs, which together, have a huge overlap with  Vegetables. The only recipes unique to Vegetables in this situation are  Skewers for ingredient #2 and  Oil.
