Feb 1, 2013 · In my peat farm, usign the pre-Forestry2 stuff, I used the TE Pulverizer & an Igneous Extruder to create sand and have it dump to a chest next to an autocrafting table. The chest holds _only_ sand (with dirt & water buckets in another chest on the other side). A few benefits to this: * Igneous Extruder requires no power

Jan 7, 2013 · A Peat farm should produce enough to power 10 Peat engines, if you use 2-4 for powering the farm (I think 1 would be a little weak, but might work). So it should produce plenty of Peat to power itself and then some (which is what I like about Peat farms, great source of fuel and has a very efficient production process).

May 4, 2013 · Also, peat farms, running out of water how? I had a multifarm doing peat in my test world, and the peat matured so slowly that the multifarm had maybe one block to harvest per minute. During that time, a single aqueous accumulator should easily generate more water than the entire internal tank of the multifarm can hold, much less eight fo them.

Jan 10, 2013 · There is 1 Peat Farm and 4 Tree Farms (You can't see the rubber tree farm in the pic) Each farm is powered by 4 Peat Engines I started out with BuildCraft piping but of course that led to items overflowing out of pipes when the inventory was fun. I could use Logic Gates but I haven't gotten around to setting up an assembly table+laser setup.

Dec 26, 2012 · A single peat farm can easily power 10 peat engines. Since the peat farm needs 2 engines itself, you can use the other 8 to power your other farms. Peat-fired engines are ideal in the start because they provide the exact amount of power a single machine (farm, combine, etc.) needs (1MJ/tick) and last a LONG time on a full stack of peat (over 4 ...

Dec 21, 2012 · The first is peat: this system is build to generate free fuel that's ideal to power your treefarm and stuff. All the farming machines require 1 MJ per 'tick' (a tick is gametime, at full speed the game is running at 20 ticks per second). The peat-fired engine generates 1MJ/tick. It also can run VERY long on a single stack of peat (over 4 hours!).

Mar 5, 2013 · It doesn't take 2 peat bog farms to keep up with 1 arboretum, maybe what you don't know is on the peat bog farm you don't need all the default water holes. One water hole covers a 5x5 area (2 all around the water hole), so fill in appropriately and the farm will then take over, the best layout I found is attached on the screenshot below and ...

Nov 24, 2012 · I haven't used peat farms but you could use Aqueous Accumulator to get water and if the farm accepts liquid directly you can just plop that right next to it and it will work just like that. Put two water source blocks next to the Accumulator to get it working max speed.

Nov 22, 2018 · The Turbary was the original peat farm, if memory serves. KingTriaxx Forum Addict. Jul 27, 2013 4,266 ...

Jan 3, 2013 · From my personal experience, a peat bog is a very low energy farm, but powering both the bog and the turbary with a single peat-fired engine (1 MJ/t around the clock) usually isn't enough to keep up with the speed of peat maturing.
