A '''Hydroponic Garden''' is a piece of Logistics equipment used to grow food from [[seeds]].
A '''Hydroponic Garden''' grows food from [[compost]] and [[seeds]].


== History ==
A garden has six grow spots. Each spot:
* Initially requires 10 compost and 4 water to prepare
* After a seed is planted, will use 1 water every 19 seconds (roughly)
* Requires 1 MW while plant is growing
* Produces 15 food and 1-2 seeds after about 425 seconds, using 22.5 water total
** [[Research]] can improve crop yield by 50%, raising this to 22.5 food (thus requiring 1 water per food)
* Requires 5 compost and 3 water to re-prepare
* Per hour this comes to about 7 compost, 21 food and 32 water (with food rising to 32 after research)
 
Total garden power usage is 1 MW (baseload) + 1 MW per plant.
