This Abiotic Factor Farming Guide will tell you how to get started with farming and how you can use it to grow food and crafting resources.
You'll need food and water to survive in Abiotic Factor, and farming is one of the best ways to get a renewable source of food. It requires a little setup to get started, though, but we've got you covered — keep reading to learn the basics of farming!
How Abiotic Factor Farming Works
Farming in Abiotic Factor requires five things: a seed, clean water, light, a Garden Plot, and time. First, you'll need to get the items you need to make a Gardening Plot. Head up to Bio Lab D and you can get most of the items you need to make a Garden Plot.
Next, place one or more Garden Plots inside of your base. Place a source of light nearby; you can find a lot of lamps in the Data Farm. Then, fill up a Cooking Pot, Water Bottle, or any other container that can hold liquid with clean water. Plant the seed and water it.
It will take several in-game days for your first crop to grow. Once it's grown, you can harvest it and get a usable food item or resource depending on the crop.

Make sure to always save some of your crops for seeds!
Abiotic Factor Crops List
Here is a list of all of the crops we've discovered thus far.

Antelight is a placeable light source that you can grow. You get seeds for Antelight by scrapping Anteverse Wheat at a Repair & Salvage Station.
Anteverse Wheat
Anteverse Wheat can be found in the Far Garden Portal and areas that have been invaded by alien flora.
Super Tomato
You can craft a Super Tomato Seed with Enethiol, a Tomato Seed, and a piece of Anteverse Wheat. Super Tomatoes are one of the best food items in the game, so you'll definitely want to grow this crop as soon as you can.

Tomatoes are a decent basic food item at the start of the game. You can find Tomato Seeds in Bio Lab D on the second floor of the Office Sector.
