Plants

In RimWorld, plants cover soil. Most are non-edible, but all are flammable. Plants grow when brightly lit, which can happen either naturally under daylight, or by using Sun lamps. Template:Clr As of build 212, here are the existing plants

They can be grown indoors, simply using the light from a torch or standing lamp. Acquisition Daylilies can be sown by Growers in plant pots or in Growing zone. Sowing requires of work. Analysis Daylilies turn a simple 13x13 dining room from Mediocre to Very Impressive at the cost of work. All buildings placed are of normal quality. Daylilies are a quick and cheap way to increase a room's beauty, and therefore, impressiveness. A plant pot is unnecessary; simply keeping a section, or even all, of the floor as dirt saves on having to build a pot in the first place. In essence, they are a way to turn work time into positive moodlets, before you can build sculptures for a more permanent mood increase. Daylilies take more work to maintain than roses. However, daylilies have a higher beauty. With a higher beauty per time sowing, they are better if you are growing multiple flowers in a single, centralized area. (Roses would be better if you have to plant flowers in separate areas, as they reduce walking time). As shown in the picture, planting daylilies can have a large impact. With this example, colonists will gain a net +10 mood from the room bonuses alone - +5 each for the room as a dining room and as a rec room, in addition to mood from a full beauty need. Filth would quickly lower this room back down to Somewhat impressive. But the simple addition of 3 dining chairs will bring this room up to 94 Impressiveness, which is enough to prevent small specks of filth from lowering it further. Later on, you will want to switch to sculptures, as they don't require constant maintenance, can be placed on regular floor, and are significantly better at filling the beauty need. Sculptures increase wealth but this amount is trivial outside of 500% difficulties - see Wealth for a more detailed analysis. Sculptures also unlock the "Viewing Art" solitary recreation activity, however the effect of this is usually minor.

Accele-potato plant

Potato plant A highly nutritious tuber. Potatoes grow well even in somewhat poor soil, and form a delicious crispy outer coating when fried in oil.

Requires 5.8 days (or 10.71 days when accounting for nightly resting period) with full light in optimal temperature range to reach maturity. Its high tolerance to ground fertility makes it efficient for growing in soil with poor fertility like gravel. Growing Ground Type Gravel Soil Rich Soil Hydroponics Fertility (%) 70 100 140 280 Real Grow Time (days) N/A Base Yield/day N/A Analysis On ordinary terrain, potato plants provide marginally less daily yield than rice plants or corn plants. Their main advantage is their low fertility sensitivity, making potatoes better in rough terrain, but much worse in rich soil or hydroponics. Other than that, potato plants grow at a median pace, faster than corn but slower than rice. They may be useful as a slower, less labor intensive growing plant in areas where corn is too slow to grow before winter comes. Trivia At some point there was an "Accele-potato plant". Its relationship to the current potato plant is unclear at this time, but it may be be the same plant just renamed, or some other predecessor.

Wild

Wild plants are plants that are on the map as the map is created. They are non-movable, and are unable to be manually planted. At full growth, some are able to be harvested for food.

This article is about the plant. For the consumable food item, see Agave fruit. Agave A large-leafed desert plant with edible flowers and stalks.

As with any other bush-type plant, agave's growth progress goes back to 30% when harvested, and agave can't be grown by the player. A mature agave plant yields 10 pieces of agave fruit. Growing Agave plants have a base growing time of 3 days, need a minimum soil fertility of 30%, and have a fertility sensitivity rating of 50%.

The latter currently makes no real gameplay difference though, as the only soil below 50% fertility is sand, which has a fertility of 6%. Food production Just like berry bushes, agave plants in rich soil are theoretically the best means of food production in the game, usurping even the almighty rice plant in hydroponics when it comes to yield per day. However, you can't control where agave plants go; you can with rice.

Bushes provide 20% cover bonus, and may[Verify?] slow movement more than the default 87% of soil, similar to brambles. Tame and domestic animals will feed on bushes and other plants (both wild and crops) when they are hungry. Colonies can use pens to keep them in or out of an area. As cover, it should be cleared from any area an invader might use. This can be done manually, by using the "Cut plants" command, and then maintained by building roofs or floors over that area. There isn't much more we can say about the bush; it's just a bush.
