I know you're still growing the channel so mistakes due to lack of research and preparation are just growing pains. However, small farming bases, like cars, are severely underrated and relatively simple to implement into a solo's wipe. So, I wanna help any viewers who might see this. You need the sprinklers and lights on separate circuts. Planters need constant light, but not constant water (that will overfill the planter). Planters need 4500-6500 water level for maximum performance. A better, cheaper, and more effecient (solo) farm base would be two planters (no door inbetween), water pump, one light, one sprinkler, one branch, one switch, one solar panel and small battery placed on TC (medium battery is technically not necessary). The sqaure next to TC can be storage. The extra square of the front 2x1 can be used to your preference (i.e. mixing table, furnaces, bags etc.) Also, since the medium battery is unnecessary, the workbench can be put out front with the pump. This has been my go to solo farm base for many wipes without attracting much attention. Cheers from Korea 🇰🇷 :)

[@Jacedives]

Yeah after watching this I wondered why anyone would go to the effort of using a medium battery and the extra junk. I wouldn't put the pump outside though as it can be destroyed in under 30sec with prim crap.

[@BOYD1]

There's no downside to constant water though, so why not just have it running constantly..

[@shane673]

@@BOYD1 The can be one down side that I've experienced and that's living in the snow. If you're constantly filling your planters with water, the wetness could persist outside your base. It could be an issue for furnaces as they will put furnaces out if not properly placed in your base.

[@BOYD1]

@@shane673 Yeah that's true, If you use planters in base I guess, But generally people don't have furnis or that in the hemp base.

[@martinjackson4036]

Well, can you make a video and show us? 😂

[@Skittlesam]

Thanks for the video Reks, if you want those extra doors to slow them down, place and make the door frames wooden and you can still place the planters, same goes for if the frames are metal.

[@Reksmore]

Thanks! That's good to know

[@justsomeguy6841]

Been looking at gamer supps but youre the first one with a code to make shipping free for the samples, so thank you for that

[@AlternateInfinite]

tip: when placing water pump - if he stood in doorway and looked downwards then hed have been able to place it(water pump). just make sure its center. from the triangle with t.c. place another triangle down heading towards the side with the front door then place water pump centered to doorway. next, place a second triangle off of the first triangle. now, place a twig square foundation off of the square foundation that has the front door on it. (should be jutting outwards to your right if youre facing the front of the base from outside). finally, place a triangle off of that square in order to seal in your water pump and then delete the excess twig. you can use the survival fishtrap for a more specialized placement since the water pump typically can be place just beyond the shoreline which also happens to be the only place the fishtrap can be placed. scout a build location by using the fishtrap like a water rod. position it as far back as possible, then switch to b.p. and place twig foundation of choice (make sure to place above water line). then head to the furtherst edge of said foundation (the part deepest in the water) and take out your pump. it should be able to be placed if the terrain is permitting.

[@zachwithnok]

Always excited to see a new Reskmore video on my feed. Perfect timing, I was planning my water base build for next wipe and I think I know how it's going to start!

[@baska-]

Congrats on your gamersupps sponsor man, you deserve it.

[@fngrusty42]

Bought rust right before Sept. This year. Ended up with a 3 story farm 4 x 14 , grew corn had a few people helping but making 3500 scrape about every other day maybe a bit more than that . Took a few hard days to get everything but kept building till it got full size. Thanks to you and teaman tom. Selling corn at bandit camp. I dont know if this is great my 1st month playing. Spent a lot of time reading about the electric. Trying to understand it. Used sea water changed to reg water,

[@BluebellyGaming]

I like this a lot. In terms of security, your front door is almost certainly going to get blown off and your shop raided, so I would recommend not keeping too much stock in there. I also wonder if a two-planter version, using the back room for mixing table and sleeping bag might be a good option. That way when the raiders blow through the back wall hoping to find TC (as you suggest) they will just find a bag and a mixing table... :)

[@Reksmore]

It definitely depends on how much you want to grow! You can also use the battery to jump up if you leave it open to expand to a second floor!

[@the_strop_7945]

Love the way you go about it man… Stay real man

[@bigsegzygypsy7619]

You got me started on Rust with a horse base ages ago. Can't wait to get back into it with a new farm base! Have to check out a new bunker design too!

[@Reksmore]

Glad to hear it! Best of luck getting back in!

[@magic_bity]

Thanks man i will use this next time i play

[@Budzie]

Just what I needed with the new farming update on rust console this base is perfect for any solo rust farmer. Thanks bro❤

Happy to help!

Thanks Reksmore. This will definitely help players of all skill levels! Keep up the great work, soldier. *salutes*

[@teaguyty]

Did this man just casually admit that he drinks tiddy milk flavored juice?

[@Reksmore]

Yes

[@ChullsterOG]

Glad to see you have reigned in the amount of times you're "going ahead" mate. I like this new thing of doing utility bases, one bit that caught my eye was the use of 2 lights and 2 sprinklers for 3 plots. I use only one, so I'm curious of your reasoning.

[@Reksmore]

I'm gonna go ahead and like this comment

[@ChullsterOG]

@@Reksmore truely, lol

[@jfeondkthz]

the reason for using 2 is because instead of a fourth planter there is a wall, so the light will be blocked by the wall and will not reach one.

[@blu3qc]

@@jfeondkthz 2 light and 2 sprinkler is normaly a setup for a 2x3 (6 planter) ... u only need 1 of each in this case ! this video is ,,,mehhhh . also no sleeping bag hello ?

[@avale187]

Hey @reksmore. FYI, if you upgrade the door frame to metal, it unblocks your ability to place a planter.

[@Reksmore]

Thank you! someone else suggested wood works too!

[@avale187]

No problem. Now if only farming wasn’t so time consuming:)

[@ianc3905]

Man I have waited for years for this video

[@SpookyBear2-Operations]

good video! clear, clean, and easy to understand! great work Reks! :) Time to start my Rust farming empire!

[@Singularity_0_1]

seems the rivers depth has been adjusted since this video came out and when i tried to build same layout on a similar depth river the pump said it was too shallow to place so always grab your pump and check the area before building

[@CreepersCanFly.]

Thank you! Much appreciated 😇

[@Reksmore]

You’re welcome 😊

[@siboneyyy]

What is the window in front of the TC needed for and why a triangle foundation there? Thanks

[@Чирикешка]

For window to defense tc

[@Gwiddyy]

I LUHHHHH YOUU THANKS FOR DESIGN HOT AHHHH

[@TroyAndrews-v8u]

Can I add a water purifiers somewhere in this, if I can’t get a river?

[@sedats8284]

I don't understand how a window is early protection for tc. Its just open what is safe?

[@warrenobrien7244]

Not just the frame, if u put in a strong window I've heard they're better than doors

[@AusErツ]

So is it ok for when the battery runs out for the plants to have 0 light?

[@c0wb0yTV]

in rust the sun does not move across the map at the equator. it actually moves from the southeast to the northwest slightly, thus the direction of your solar panel placement will depend on where you are on the map. nice video but ya the solar info is not quite right

[@TeaGuyTom]

Now this is a nice looking farm! Very thorough and clean build. Great video Reksmore! ☕

[@Reksmore]

Phew! Thanks! I'm glad It's TeaGuyTom approved

[@chicosstuff7432]

Thanks, any suggestions on where to place bag or is airlock ok?

[@FreddyKrugerGloves]

[@darkcorbor9598]

[@boy9958]

tip for placing double door frames is have them wood or metal to be able to put planter boxes down still if you have them stone the stone is too big (i approve of this starter farm)

[@xavierdrummond5391]

You don't need to half two half walls to put the triangle shelf. Put a half wall, then a full floor on that, then the triangle can be placed along with a full wall. now demolish the half wall and full floor and the triangle will stay

[@zeetmaster]

where do you place furnaces and sleeping bags if its your main

[@Bullminator]

Note --- you dont need water pump to make this work. Heck you can make a farm base like this in snow as you can just collect water on top of your base and send it down. You do need the heaters tho.

[@Hermster_gotchutney]

Can we get an expansion video for this?

@@Kourzz i did, and its incorrect. you dont need the half walls even if upgrading to t2. but hey what do i know, i only have several thousand hours in the game xd

[@hikkik]

finally, there is nothing left to show in rust, except minifarms. that is quite sad Mr Reksmore ((( if i'll build a tiny farm, i will do it in 2 by 3 with extra planter boxes on shelfs, which brings me +50-65% of yielding with same space and increased upkeep, but this is nothing in case of profit groth🤗 no negative but video is about nothing at all peace✌ And btw who is going to think that in 2by2 your tc is over there? if u have a somekind of honeycomb in the place where u placed it. Im sure much more players will upgrade to sheet metal their TC room and loot room aswell. and it will shows much more clear where to raid

[@Reksmore]

I assure you I have more coming! I have a car base I'm tweaking after my first wipe with it the it'll be coming soon!

[@masterfenlas8227]

"Its all about the aesthetics." Says the man who builds bases like a hoarder and makes planter floors.

[@zerobambiro]

Now I want to see you getting a large amount of scrap. Selling at bandit is to slow and you can just hope that people will buy alot of your hemp for scrap and that this doesn't draw to much attention to your base. Otherwise I will be gone in no time.

[@Reksmore]

You can easily sell teas to people for massive profits. Expand. Add honey comb. Build up from the batter to a second floor. Nobody should ever just intend to live forever in a 2x2 without expanding and not getting raided

[@TunnelVision]

A farm base without a composter is not a proper farm

[@Aelanna]

I hate when KZbin videos show you how to do something and then you can't actually do it. I've been wrestling with that stupid pump for an hour now and it will not place so the other triangle can place!

[@Reksmore]

I showed you where to stand but there's sometimes issues if the ground is too high where the pump goes

[@Visceralreality]

Noob tip, rotate stone walls before placing boxes. Place boxes, then rotate the walls back. Gives a little more space to place those boxes easier. p.s. Do not place electrical components or wiring points on external walls. Always anchor them on internal walls.
