How to use it
Pick two crops and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 devilstrand against rice to see the seven point five to one gap. Real day math rides the intro multiplier.
Healroot is 7 grow days, not 12, which counts rest hours. Cotton is 8, not 9. Devilstrand is 22.5 current, not 22.3. Fertility, light and temperature scale these base stats in game. Hydroponics bans corn and haygrass while speeding the rest. Rich soil and sun lamps push growth past base rates daily. Blight never strikes devilstrand.
