BEST Mystical Agriculture Farm Design | All The Mods 8

If you are having issues with the routers not working, make sure to add a Security Upgrade in it! It's most likely because you have the chunk claimed.

This farm is insane and still works in 2024!! Also works for ATM9! Some tips and fixes to this farm that I have gathered from the comments, forums and my experience: 1. Craft an Emperor's Chalice to have infinite water on your hotbar for better accessibility. 2. Craft a Personal Shrinking Device if you would like to access the first level of farmland to plant/remove individual blocks or seeds etc. 3. Scythe only works in unclaimed chunks, therefore go to FTB teams settings (Top left of inventory screen), create a party and change settings of "Allow All Fake Players" to TRUE. After, you are still able to claim and force load the chunk. Alternatively, add a Security Upgrade in the router. 4. Watering Can only works when it is not on auto water so shift right click the air, it will appear as non-enchanted. After, access the create interface (goggles icon next to give feedback in pause menu), navigate to configure then access configs of other mods type mystical agriculture then go to common then general then enable fake player. 5. Replace the top modular router with a backpack equipped with desired upgrades and a compulsory advanced magnet so you can pick up the items effectively, solving plenty of issues like not being able to pick up different seeds/essences. 6. Hook up the backpack to a storage system of your choice, preferably something with large/almost-infinite storage space eg. RS Network Receiver. 7. Make sure to have lights if you are building this without direct sunlight i.e. underground. Hope these tips that I have compiled from various sources help you in achieving this insane farm!

[@Gins.]

For anyone reading this, you should note that step 4 only works if you are either doing this in single-player, or the server config is enabled for this on a multi-player server.

[@Rumpelstyl]

An advanced Item collector does also work instead of the backpack router reduces lag for me

[@josephsquires6987]

After reviewing all comments on this video and hours of searching online the above did help but not fully. I found that if you are running your own server you will need to locate the Mystical Agriculture config files in your server folder and open with Notepad / NotePad++ and change the setting for pylon watering to 'true' as mine was set to 'false' by default. Once I changed this and re-booted back up the server everything worked a treat!

[@EddieSlams]

step 4 is literally some genius work, thank you for this.

[@BobbyBoucher534]

you're a legend, I've created this farm before and was about to search through the comments for these exact steps. THANK YOU!!

[@SNZ2X]

For those mixing and matching seeds using this farm, in the tier 3 the modular router won't pick everything up leading to a lot of entities on the ground. To go around this instead of the modular router I put a backpack with an advanced magnet upgrade in place of the vacuum router and it's now going awesome.

[@AlfredGGMC]

Backpacks are definitely amazing for multiple seeds! Glad it's working great!

[@superninja7977]

thx so much was just running into this issue

[@MidnitePat]

Thank you! The backpack is perfect for this and solves the vacuum module not keeping up problem.

[@ArsenalHail8688]

How can you hook up the backpack to an external storage like RS? It would have to be crammed into the design and probably taking up seed space

[@greywanderer82]

This is fantastic, I'm gonna build it tonight. One note, Sophisticated Storage also has void options if you wanna keep the diamond (or netherite) chest instead of the drawer. Personal preference, but if you prefer the chest, you can fix your overflow problems without needing the drawer.

[@dripthanos5595]

honestly sophisticated storage can potentially store much more than a drawer with stack upgrades, its just more expensive

[@elpximso6771]

@@dripthanos5595 yeah a maxed drawer with a void upgrade holds 2.1B items, a maxed backpack with a void holds about 20B items

[@SirProtagonist]

One big tip I have in terms of decreasing storage stress is to instead of pumping straight into an ender chest, put a RFTools crafter as the output of the farm instead. Have it craft up to insanium (or any other breaking point) and then output that to your ender chest/storage system. Then because crafting up and down is lossless, you can just craft the insanium back down as needed, without having thousands of infernium constantly being shoved into a drawer. Its about 4100x as compact tiering up first than just storing inferium.

[@alsoyes3287]

Alternatively, depending on scale, they might be fine with just a compacting drawer, turning inferium into inferium blocks, dividing their volume by 9

[@BigClipping]

@@alsoyes3287 or do it his way cause it compacts inferium by 1024 instead of 9

[@alsoyes3287]

@@BigClipping you can still do that, just with blocks, reducing the amount of crafting operatings by 9x

[@williamlockschmidt5654]

You can also use master infused crystals to convert the blocks to their updated form, so would it be best to make inferium blocks and craft those up to insanium?

For ATM9TTS seems that advanced item collector is faster than modular routers or backpacks with magnetic. Also whirlsprigs duplicate your lilypads of fertility if you have ars setup, so you can run your mob farm for less time. For normal lilypads you can use the chemistry mod to get them from cellulose. And green dye you can setup checkerboard cactus with slabs between, also great ars source generator.

If you're like me and you like to get into this mod right after starting your world, a tier 0 farm is just using Hopper Botany Pots. They're not as fast and are a little annoying to make, but they auto-collect everything. Connect them all to a single drawer and go start on another mod. If you need iron for all the hoppers, use the Easy Villager's iron farm. Even just 3 of them will produce far more iron than you'll need prior to mid / end-game. On the plus side, hopper botany pots work as tree farms as well. And are also easy enough to create charcoal farms.

[@Run2Seeun]

I have few more tips for this: *1)* You can also combine red fertilizer with yellow fertilizer, but can't combine with the green one. Not necessary for growth speed, but this makes it so farmland can't be trampled. *2)* If you are on single player, you can instead increase the harvester pylon speed simply by adjusting its config file. 10 ticks is the fastest option and its way better than collecting item entities in world. *3)* If you don't have access to lily pads, you can use growth accelerators beneath the farmland. Even on tertium or imperium, it goes really fast when combined with red fertilizer. I don't even use a single lily pad or automated watering can and I already have 2k+ insanium essence.

[@thevlogent]

i cant seem to find its config file, any help would be appreciated :)

Did you end up finding the config file? Im running into the same issue where my server was lagging too much even with a netherite backpack void magnet upgrade, cant seem to find the pylon config file of the server tho@@thevlogent

[@ryanstanfield1]

Just an FYI on the 3rd point. Higher tier growth accelerators DO NOT make growth faster, they ONLY increase the range that they work. And the range is only for what is ABOVE it, they do not work in a grid. So yes you'll need one under every single dirt block. So yes you can have a 9x9 farm land with 11 rows of inferium growth accelerators under it all, I don't know if the 12 range means that the dirt needs to be on the 12th, so I just keep it safe and put only 11 rows so that the 12th is the dirt that its trying to reach. Then you can add the next tier of growth accelerators under those.

[@josephmendoza6251]

@@ryanblack99 since nobody else had the answer anywhere I looked, this is what I found world (or your worldname) > serverconfig > pylons-server.toml I believe the setting to change is harvesterwWorkDelay = 20 and i'm going to change it to 10 to see what happens.

[@krudtklovnen]

Strangely enough, when I replicate this on our server, the scythe doesn't actually turn the seed growth back to 0%, so it just stays at 'fully grown' and keeps harvesting the crops a mach 10 speeds. I've tried using the modular router without a scythe on a single seed, and it does as expected and turns the growth level back to zero. Also; all the lower tier mystical scythes doesn't lose durability in the modular router either. Edit: I just noticed that if I remove the ftb chunk claim it stops, but since I have it built in a compact machine (I've tested it outside of it with same results), I kind of have to have it chunk loaded somehow - any suggestions? Edit2: If anyone else has this problem and are reading this; it seems to come down to the ftb team property 'Block Edit Mode', which has to be set to something other than 'private' for this to work. Funny exploit though - about 6-8 seeds would drop more essence than a 64 items/t pipe could handle xD

For insanium, I highly recommend using a Crafter 3 from RFToolUtils as you can set up an insanium compacter (with keeping the master cyrstal in) with only one block and 2 storage access points. To make it even more efficient Try putting a compacting upgrade to the chest so you'll export inferium blocks rather than stacks of the essence. I even hooked a Create belt&funnel to the chest so it just exports a stack of any given essence at a time, preventing the "flickering" in the updated storage.

[@PinkyZKey]

If you run the pylon method, the farmland does not matter aside from the essence farmland multipliers for inferium crops. You're best off saving yourself the gathering and crafting time for the red fertilizer and just use normal farmland. The reason being is that the pylons are super slow (~40 ticks an operation). It's still an amazing setup that provides so much early game. I don't think you'll need as many lily pads in the early tiers either. I ran a lot of 5 minute tests with the pylon method and it's all the same within margin of error. Tested red fertilizer, green fertilizer, rich farmland, insanium farmland. The only difference was that the insanium farmland 4x the inferium essence and provided inferium seeds as a rare secondary output. Green fertilizer does not multiply Mystical Agriculture crop output at all. Router harvesting tests are coming up, I'll comment below this when I'm done.

[@PinkyZKey]

In the multiple 5 minute tests, I ran an average. I only did this because I'm a stats nerd and I had a lot of fun just running experiments and tests of this setup, so thank you so much for this build. I had a blast. The results, lowest to highest, for the modular harvested 17x17 farm are this (Diamond Seeds): Insanium Farmland: 8,613 essence/minute (I was shocked, but ran this more than the others to confirm) Green Fertilizer: 9,657 essence/minute (no multiplier confirmed) Dirt: 9,764 essence/minute Rich Soil: 10,598 essence/minute (makes sense, I believe this farmland has a random chance per a certain amount of ticks to have a bonemeal effect) Red Fertilizer: 17,728 essence/minute (wow!) I cannot get insanium to give even dirt levels of output. No idea why it's worse than dirt, but the tests say it's pretty bad. Still, it's within about margin of error for it, so it could be just some bad tests (I ran 5 for insanium vs. 3 for the rest). It's still the best for inferium seeds, though, just not material seeds. Still, the winner is clear. At nearly double the output, red fertilizer is indeed the best farmland.

I'd like to add that you can chunk load a diamond compact machine both inside and outside and stack the farms maybe 4 high inside the machine and use item tunnels to get the resources out of the compact machine. So you could grow all your major resources inside the compact machine. From what I've seen you have to chunk load the inside and outside of the machine for it to work but doing so makes it produce and transport materials even if you aren't on the server if you're playing on your own server. So it kind of sucks that you have to chunk load two times per machine but it works and saves a ton of space.

Definitely depends on if you are on a server! There are plenty of server-friendly setups, mostly involving Phytos. I personally only use Tier 2 for my speedruns, but tier 3 can be great if you replace the collecting router with either a backpack with a magnet upgrade, or with an advanced item collector.

[@GeorgeSmith2885]

I made 2 of these side by side sharing the 3 rows of lilys that are not under the farmland/stairs. I have one for inferium and the other for a mix of the seeds I need running at the time. I found that with 6 range upgrades that the routers are picking up from the opposite farm. I dropped it to only 2 and everything is being picked up but they no longer mix. This is what I need as all of the inferium goes to an RFtools crafter to turn into insanium while the rest goes into my storage. Just leaving this here for anyone that has the same issue in the future.

[@AlfredGGMC]

I would switch to Advanced Item Collectors for the collection!

[@queijitos7443]

i started playing the atm9 to the sky, but in atm9 normal, i made a farm like that with lilipads around the crops with 2 layers, on the side and bellow, and all growth acellerators bellow the crops, with one modular router and a vaccum hopper abova it, and it farms like 1000 items per second

[@MegaLokopo]

Why wouldn't you use the supremium growth accelerators?

[@AlfredGGMC]

In ATM9, definitely do it. otherwise, they don't do much lol

Best tutorial ever

[@panzer_waffle4150]

does the pylon work in atm9 with claimed chunks? i've got it set up and i press "On" but it isnt harvesting anything, does it wait for all the crops to fully grow?

[@AlfredGGMC]

It should work, but you might need to enable "allow fake players" in your FTB Teams settings. Also, it needs a Hoe and a chest above it.

[@panzer_waffle4150]

@@AlfredGGMC i figured it out, for some reason placing the pylon in the middle of the farm at dirt level doesnt work, instead it has to be on crop level

[@diegocamme]

useful, nice and fun as always, but I have a question, what can be used instead of the modular router in case it is not in a modpack?

[@jordanye7484]

just use some type of item collector and use the growth accelerator since u wont be able to use the watering can/atm9 removed it as well unless u change the config

[@JamesStansell]

The cyclic mod has an amazing item collector. You will place it on the side of the farm rather than in the center.

[@pintobean6092]

You can no longer put a watering can in the modular router! Just wanted to let people know. I was confused for a bit.

[@nxtlvlnoah]

Btw if you are using multiple seeds on one field, use a backpack (or maybe a chest, haven't tried them) from Sophisticated with a advanced Magnet upgrade. That way you should be able to collect all Items fast enough so that nothing drops onto the floor and lingers there for multiple seconds.

[@zehsofficial]

Does the watering can actually work in ATM9 with the Modular Router? I don't see the animation on the Modular Router for the one with the watering can. AND How do I make the Modular Router pick up items quicker? Does adding another Vacuum Module make it go twice as fast? Should I add the Fast Pickup Augment or Stack Augment to my Vacuum Module?

[@elpximso6771]

i would use an item collector and no it dosent seem to work with watering cans in atm9

[@AlfredGGMC]

It doesn't work in ATM9, and I'd switch to an Advanced Item Collector!

[@mmsgo45454]

Modular routers are bad for picking up items, i suggest using advanced item collectors instead. They can cover the whole farm if you configure it.

[@AlfredGGMC]

The item collectors are good! I've also been seeing a lot of lag out of them as well on our ATM9 server.

[@dori_LMAO]

Thank you Alfred you’re best❤

[@thebester]

Using Horns of the Wild from Botania makes this setup so much more op

[@PcMeowster]

Thx. It takes bunch of lilies and other materials. I think i'll stick to my method of making bunch of botany pots along with loads of mekanism pipes.

[@AlfredGGMC]

Tier 2 is what I use for my speedruns, personally. It's relatively fast, even if you don't get all of the lilypads.

[@PcMeowster]

@@AlfredGGMC I don't have any of the lilypads due to lack of ingredients. Rib bone, catalyzing gland and slime pearl. I don't know how to get loads of that and only idea i have is building simulation chamber.(Which i had btw before i lost the old save)

@@PcMeowster You won't believe this, but I actually have a video on how to do exactly this! Check out my mob farm guide!

Hey, Alfred my modulear router isnt mining the crops for some reason . Do you know what it could be? I have a scythe in it and with the activation upgrades.

[@AlfredGGMC]

Check to see if you have the chunk claimed, and if you do, make sure to allow fake players.

[@Leviathan1132]

Damn thats exactly my design, it aint that original but ive never seen it before by someone else. Shared it on reddit exactly this way

[@AlfredGGMC]

That's crazy! I started with the basic 9x9 and then actually went with create to harvest. After finding the routers, this is eventually what it turned into!

@@AlfredGGMC well good job on the build, i didnt watch the whole thing but did you use roots tick accelerator on the routers?

yea i have same problem with but when i try first time it work but when i want to stop machin i toke hoe and i save da game and tomorow when i launch my word it dosnt want to work .did you myb fix this isuess?

[@arjungandotra304]

Great idea man. One thing, could you please suggest something for the tier 3 farm. Basically, I'm playing a pack which has all of the required mods, but don't have access to the supremium scythe. So, any work around that thing???

[@AlfredGGMC]

The issue with that is that the scythe harvests by right clicking. You might have something in the pack that harvests like that, maybe a sickle or something to get you by. Try one of those!

[@Wishbone1977]

@@AlfredGGMC I'm playing Mystical Block and couldn't get this to work. Tried all the things people have suggested: adding a security card, setting the block edit mode to public, etc. Nothing helped. I finally found out that the supremium scythe does _not_ harvest a 9x9 area, but only a single block, and since the single block it is clicking in your setup is a slab, it just does nothing. Looking at the versions I expect this is due to the fact that Mystical Block uses v1.16.5-4.2.6 of MA while ATM8 uses v1.19.2-6.0.10. As it turns out, the scythe you are using is not the same as mine, although they are visually identical, which is what led me to believe they were the same. Mine is a Tinker's Construct scythe made entirely from supremium, and while it _is_ indestructible, it does not appear to work like the one later added directly to MA. For any others who may be in the same situation, what I have done for now is this: I've placed a column of 3 Cyclic harvesters on the center of each of the four edges of the farm, so 12 harvesters altogether. They are all set to 11x11, which means I have 12 harvesters working on the same area. I'm guessing it's still not quite as fast as the setup in this video, but it's fast enough for now, and I have plenty of power.

[@deilusi]

I hope you are aware copy gadget could have made the layers for you? make 1, copy it and paste twice for each farm, or just copy whole.

[@AlfredGGMC]

You know, I absolutely could have. lol Didn't think of it!

Hi! I just found your farm design and wanted to make it with my first ever modded minecraftt with ATM7, but sadly i dont have the "Supremium Scythe" from MA mentioned at 13:38 I do have one from Tinkers but don't think they are the same is there a different tool I could use as a replacment for the tier 3 farm? Anyways Merry Chirstmas / Happy Holidays !!

[@AlfredGGMC]

I believe there is an AOE scythe/sickle from Tinkers. Also merry christmas!
