for any newcomers watching this, the best way to line up your irrigation pipes is placing a ladder in front of the area you want to place your pipes and/or you crop plots, place your item, then pick the ladder up and repeat if necessary. the ladder snaps perfectly alligned to floors and ceilings, so climbing up makes your character perfectly straight in reference to the floor and ceiling tiles.
Literally the best "farming for dummies" video I could have hoped for. Not only did you clarify each plot's best use (which I didn't know), you also gave basic info on what irrigation taps were for. I'm a visual learner as well, so seeing it in a simple quick video was so much easier to understand than looking up a wordy text guide or a random forum post. Thank you so much, man!
Tecorsuh undeniably did a great job here with this "quick and dirty" guide but one point he only visually alludes to (does not explicitly mention) is the watering range of each tap - i.e. the fact that you don't need a tap for every plot. That fact usually translates into people needing a ton less piping to water a given area than is suggested by many farming videos, especially those that concentrate of aesthetics rather than efficiency,
I know you probably won’t see this but this was an amazing video of the other videos I found were 30 minutes long and they only explain the compost bin method
I built a green house over top of a lake with wood ceilings on top of pilings as the floor. My floor was just barely above the water line and ended up not needing irrigation with the plots on the floor. I thought that was interesting as I had never come across that before.
I know this was addressed in the first part of this video. One might expect that as you increase plot size, you would have a greater storage capacity for fertilizer and crops. The only benefit that a large crop plot brings is a higher capacity for water storage (600=large, 400=medium, 200=small), which is completely pointless if you have a tap connected to a body of water (never runs low or runs out). With 300% Greenhouse Effect, all the crop plot sizes stop producing after 299 berries or 149 crops and have a total storage of 10 slots, no matter what plot size you use. Not a serious issue, but I wish the crop plots increased in more than just size and water capacity, but in fertilizer and crop storage as well. It would provide more incentive to grind for the extra materials. Ideally/realistically, the greenhouse effect would only influence crop production speed, and the crop plot size would determine size of your harvest. Also, considering how fragile the greenhouse structures are, it is kind of annoying that the Tek Forcefield blocks the greenhouse effect. Though I guess it makes sense logically, it is just another minor issues that bugs me a bit.
You can also use a ladder, press k for spactator view and pick the ladder back up to place things straight. I use an intersection to center the pipes in the middle of the foundation or to get it in between 2 foundations like in the video.
This is the most beautiful piping system I've seen so far! Lol thank u for this! I have a question I'm super new at farming, how many items can u harvest from 1 plot!?
A faster and easier way to get fertilizer is to make a toilet. When you poop in it and flush it, it gives you fertilizer. So basically 1 human poop = 1 fertilizer.
To get massive amounts of medium poop, which can be transformed into fertilizer; feed stimberries to a tamed Phiomia Literally fixed all my fertilizer problems
Can someone please help me I’ve been seacrching for like 20 minutes now and I can’t find a single source that tells you how to destroy crops if it won’t let you
If one wants to grow vegetables in ark where does one is able to find the seeds as I play on the islands but haven't found any All I can find are Berry seeds from the black ones and from a few other Berry's I also was only able to find long grass seeds which I haven't used yet. So for now all I'm growing are the black berries that puts you to sleep since I use them a lot in recipes for medicine for the tribe I joined.
I just started out a few days ago too. I have the farmer role on my tribe 🤣 When it says Fruitling, it's gonna produce whatever crop or berry seed you put in. Although the yield is significantly smaller if you don't have the greenhouse effect.
Even in vanilla, as long as you have a wall at the end of a foundation it will stay. So if you have a wall 4 long and skip every other foundation spot the wall will stay.
I think they should boost the amount of berries you get to at least 1k per small crop plot. I mean who would even go to the trouble of making a narco berry farm that puts out 100 berries per crop plot and get around 1k per 10 crop plots when you can farm the 1k with a low level parasaur with high melee damage in like 20 minutes?. It is pointless and just a dead game mechanic. Iow reward, and takes engram points use to get the large crop plots. its one of the many flaws of ark. Also i wished they made the binoculars an actual engram. Remove the tables or any other engram that is not really useful. I hate having to load up genesis on my other server just to get a new set when i lose them. Tried to spawn them in but the code from wiki doesnt function on console.
Yea I agree, Crops are kinda dead but that’s only early on. I’m on this video only to start farming the vegetables needed for extraordinary kibble, to tame perfectly
This might just be for me but I don’t actually need to water my plants the rain does it on its own. It rains so often my plants are always at least 90% water at all times I just need to feed it a few hide sacks to kick start it’s journey uwu
you need irrigation, irrigation intake starting in any water body, connect pipes, cross sections and end in taps above the crop plots, water tap irrigate several crop plots, I put a tap in the coss section of 4 large crop plots, 1 large crop plot takes up the same space as 2 by 2 small crop plots, I use the small for berries and the large for vegetables and plant species x
@@Tecorsuh S+ .. is not working if you play on official servers. It is working on singleplayer though. Moded servers has it anyway.. Is the most used mod on ark. I heard rumours that Officials working to bring it to official servers.. but we will see..
Nice vid but just one question. If "I'm tired of picking berries every time I want to tame a Dino"? Why don't you just tame a Berry picker first? Stego or trike will work, saves time making compost. You need farms for cooking pot ingredients like long grass and servo roots oh and carrots. I wouldn't bother farming berry unless you live in harsh environments where none grow.like snowy mountain tops.
It was just a catchy line he used in the beginning to open the video. He put down 4 large plots for each veggie. Potatoes, Carrots, Corn and Lemons.....yes i know those aren't the in game names. Gotta pay attention to what you watch or you end up embarrassing yourself by thinking you are smarter than the teacher, lol.

Welp imma start a farm on the wall now thanks!
Well put together video to help me start to farm. Been putting it off because it seemed confusing. Bit your video helped. So thank you

Tame a pig. Then use stimbarries and force feed pig to produce large amounts of poop. That's the only thing I do differently. Great video
Phiomia for those who don't know what you mean by pigs, I've always called them stubby elephants.
I have so many carnos that I get poops every time I look at barn xD

Tip for placing pipes. Use crosshairs from weapon to mark spot then simply switch to pipe and place it.

I'm here cuz of the pain the equus gave me from the Rockcarrots
Finally a video that's not more than half an hour long 🙌🏻thanks
The moment it's like yeah we can place on this rock. The silence just had me howling that's exactly what I'd of been like 🤣🤣
6:08 kitchen gun!
You can also use a ladder, press k for spactator view and pick the ladder back up to place things straight. I use an intersection to center the pipes in the middle of the foundation or to get it in between 2 foundations like in the video.
I loved every single one of your videos. Very concise yet well-explained.
Thank you! Just subscribed!
Thanks this helped me a lot since I don’t know much about farming lol
Most helpful tutorial that I've seem so far. Thanks for the vid.
this guy is underrated
This is the most beautiful piping system I've seen so far! Lol thank u for this! I have a question I'm super new at farming, how many items can u harvest from 1 plot!?

Yeah dude the best
@If u disagree with me u are stupid
I disagree...
How do you know if you have to poop?
It randomly
happens a or you can force poop even sooner
U can get it from dung beetles faster
Best farming video
To get massive amounts of medium poop, which can be transformed into fertilizer; feed stimberries to a tamed Phiomia
Literally fixed all my fertilizer problems
Great vid man helped a lot
Great video! Super helpful! Thanks for the tips!
Thank you for the following information 😀
Use a ladder to line it up
Thanks for the vid I've gone from depending on hunting and dinos to full farmer
This video is a HUUUUGE help!!! Thank you!!!
Can someone please help me
I’ve been seacrching for like 20 minutes now and I can’t find a single source that tells you how to destroy crops if it won’t let you
did you learnt speaking from Leonard snart?
Hello Barryyyyy
Lmao
lol
Great to the point video, thank you.
Plant species X seeds are found in cattails (what I’ve got mine from) the edit was the word mine because it said men from reason
Now you gotta edit from to for
If you felt like taking the time you can just build a whole shower of things over your greenhouse and water flows through the greenhouse pieces
If one wants to grow vegetables in ark where does one is able to find the seeds as I play on the islands but haven't found any All I can find are Berry seeds from the black ones and from a few other Berry's I also was only able to find long grass seeds which I haven't used yet.

I dont recommend using large crop plots for this build for beginners its really hard to fit😅learned it the hard way hahaha
Hey can you make a video to show how make your crops make more vetables
I contacted pipes all the way from my base to the ocean and it's still not irrigated...
You just saved my life
00:52 i just had tot LOL at that point. i couldnt help myself
ik ur probaly not gonna see this but how do u know when crops are done
im new
I just started out a few days ago too. I have the farmer role on my tribe 🤣 When it says Fruitling, it's gonna produce whatever crop or berry seed you put in. Although the yield is significantly smaller if you don't have the greenhouse effect.
Thanks for the info
You sound just like Wentworth Miller in Legens of tomorrow.
tysm subbed!
0:59 😂
Well I mean it’s flat😂😂 I wonder if ceiling is allowed XD
What is the mod called with the gun to pick up the structures again?
Just wondering, how was the walls still up even without the foundations before you put them back? To cover the pipes?
Structures+ mod I think
Even in vanilla, as long as you have a wall at the end of a foundation it will stay. So if you have a wall 4 long and skip every other foundation spot the wall will stay.
What setting is it to be able to put crop plots on land??? Someone plz tell me
crop plots dont require foundation support as long as the surface is flat enough or there aren't any obstructions it should work just fine

I think it rains often enough to keep the plants growing
This, I have never had to use irrigation. Once you get into doing a greenhouse though, you will need irrigation.
This might just be for me but I don’t actually need to water my plants the rain does it on its own.
It rains so often my plants are always at least 90% water at all times I just need to feed it a few hide sacks to kick start it’s journey uwu
Well I tried to put bag for water in plot but it said theres no water but there was :/

Love your unimpressed voice over
hmm can stone pipes get water from metal water reservoir
why havent got anyone made a guide on resources..
Can I grow crops inside a cave where there is no sun?
how do you make it s+
How do you get massive poop? Dont think I've ever seen one
I'm not surprised you haven't seen one, they come from the Titanosaur

Best crop?
Carrots
Longras
Citrate
The other one?
"Also another thing"*Reloading gun*
1:20 plots?
what i can’t even put seed in it
I have a question. How do you get Savaroot, Longrass, Rockarrot and Lemon
Did you ever find out
You can get it from gathering berries and fiber normally, they don't drop super often but often enough to get em for farming
somewhat rare drop from harvesting bushes which yield berries, use a parasaur for better harvesting early on (or trike/stego/bronto later)
Where do I get S+?
S+ is a mod on the PC version of the game. You would just search for it in the steam workshop.
@@Tecorsuh S+ .. is not working if you play on official servers. It is working on singleplayer though. Moded servers has it anyway.. Is the most used mod on ark. I heard rumours that Officials working to bring it to official servers.. but we will see..

What about bone meal!? 😂

Hahaha....
I literally have a 20 large plots just spamming narcoberrys
I just have a Bronto giving them all to me 😂
I'm kinda new does 20 large plots work better than like a parasaur?
Daniel Kizziar when starting paras r better level up more then go to crop plots
Daniel Kizziar I was used to my tames getting my berries (kinda newish too), but for high level kibble you’re forced to farm, so I’d say start early!
I think using a bronto is easier for narcos.. the only thing I use plots for are the advanced plants and veggies.
