Plant Species Y
This article is about Plant Species Y, not to be confused with
Plant Species X,
Plant Species Z, or
Plant Species R
Plant Species Y is a plant introduced in Scorched Earth and also available on Ragnarok, Valguero, Genesis: Part 1, Crystal Isles, Genesis: Part 2, and Lost Island. It can be grown by putting
Plant Species Y Seeds in a
Large Crop Plot. The seeds can be found by harvesting desert plants.
Once fully grown, it produces
Plant Species Y Traps similar to bear traps. Unlike the Plant Species X, it is not a defensive plant and can't shoot projectiles.
Production
The Plant Species Y grows the same as any other plot-based plant, consuming both water and fertilizer to grow, but unlike other plants, it consumes significantly less of both once it reaches maturity. One should monitor water levels when growing these plants indoors.
Plant Y takes 2:00 minutes to produce one
Plant Species Y Traps (official servers rate) , In a greenhouse it takes up to 0:30 seconds to produce one (300% effect), If the
Plant Species Y Traps in the plot reach up to 10, the Plant y will stop producing traps.
Each
Plant Species Y Trap spoil in 59 minutes (official server rates), the spoil timer only exist on inventories, when placed in the floor it will just disappear if destroyed.
The Plant Y takes exact 10 hours (official server rates) to fully grow from the moment you plant the seed without a greenhouse. With a greenhouse (300% effect) takes only 2:30 Hours to fully grow from the moment you plant the seed.
The following items can be used as fertilizer:
| Fertilizer type | Fertilizer units | Fertilizes for | Fertilizes full* plant for |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1,000 | 10m | 3h 5m | |
| 3,500 | 35m | 10h 48m | |
| 7,500 | 1h 15m | 23h 8m | |
| 15,000 | 2h 30m | 1d 22h 15m | |
| 35,000 | 5h 50m | 4d 11h 55m | |
| 50,000 | 8h 20m | 6d 10h 10m | |
| 7,500 | 1h 15m | 23h 8m | |
| 54,000 | 9h | 6d 22h 30m | |
| 90,000 | 15h | 11d 13h 30m |
* When a plant has its maximum of fruits, it needs less fertilizer. As the fruits spoil after some time, leaving the plant in a non-full state for some time, these numbers are rather theoretical maximums.
Notes
- Unlike Plant Species X and Plant Species Z, the Plant Species Y does not have structure properties: it lacks of health value, decay time and collision mesh. Its life and decay are directly and only related to the crop plot and its amount of fertilizer.
