Note

Greetings. This is a sort of FAQ-let for Startopia, focusing entirely on the
Bio-Deck, and the crops grown there. I hope it is simple to read, and useful
to you. You may contact me at my e-mail above, but please use discression, I
have enough spam floating around there as it is. I am willing to take
suggestions for better descriptions of the plants and terrain, as well as any
corrections needed. At this point, I am uncertain if this will grow into a
full Startopia FAQ, it may if I get inspired later. As always, you may put
this FAQ anywhere you like, as long as it is freely available to the public.

Thank you and good day.

Any deeper, and the farmers seem to refuse to plant anything. Temperature
seems to have no relevance for water plants. Seems only Stickrush grows in
shallow water. Land height seems to have no relevance on any crops.
