Greenhouse Structures are the fourth building tier in ARKs Building System.



Crafting
The Structures are made of Crystal, Cementing Paste, and Metal Ingots.

Usage
The Greenhouse Ceiling, the Sloped Greenhouse Roof and the Greenhouse Wall provide Greenhouse Effect to placed under or near. Each of them provides 15% Greenhouse Effect (Greenhouse Walls must have Greenhouse Ceilings or Sloped Greenhouse Roof above them to be active) and can be seen when looking at the crop plot (see picture on the right). Other Greenhouse structures are entirely cosmetic.

When the Greenhouse Effect is granted to a Crop Plot, its crops grow significantly faster but continue to consume Fertilizer at the usual rate. Because of this, the Greenhouse Effect increases the crop yield per unit of fertilizer. The Greenhouse Effect is capped at a maximum of 300%, meaning crops can grow up to 4 times faster than normal.

A 2x2 greenhouse with single wall high will provide 165% to crops under the Greenhouse Ceilings.

There is a Greenhouse Doorframe in the first picture: It doesn't provide any effect, so the bonus is 165% instead of 180%.

NOTE: Greenhouse Effect will not be active if the greenhouse is built under the Tek Forcefield.

A fully upgraded greenhouse needs to be larger (3x3 or more). A 2x2 built two walls high will only give 285% of the Greenhouse Effect (second picture).

You can build two walls high on a 3x3 Greenhouse, but it will just be cosmetic: 3x3 built a single wall high is enough to get the full 300% bonus (third picture).

To get a full 300% the best practice is to lay crop plots using good space management, spreading them too far can cost extra building. Build 2 walls (these do not have to be greenhouse), then build Greenhouse Ceilings over the entire area. Sloped or flat does not matter. Check your greenhouse % and then add in 1 or 2 Greenhouse Walls, over and over until you are at 300%. With large structures, this could take adding walls to different sides to even it out. Once at 300% feel free to fill in with any wall type you wish.
