Modular routers are noted as more efficient than current methods due to their ability to instantly harvest crops when ready.

Storage Solutions and Upgrades

Limited storages can be placed facing upwards, allowing better organization compared to functional storage which must face horizontally.

While effective, the current system isn't the fastest; modular routers will provide quicker harvesting capabilities later on.

Upgrading Systems and Automation

Storage Capacity Enhancements

Basic storage upgrades require 10,000 capacity at netherite tier; additional slots from stack upgrades are crucial for efficiency.

Crafting Processes Involved

Transitioning from limited barrels to normal barrels with compacting upgrades is necessary for block conversion during autocrafting processes involving mystical agriculture essences.

Infusion Crystals Explained

Infusion crystals play a vital role in upgrading essences; both master infusion crystals (durability-free) and regular ones (with durability) are utilized within applied energistics systems.

Seed Collection Strategy

Collecting seeds through vein mining grass leads to sufficient crop slots needed for filling areas dedicated to inferium production.

Final Preparations

Crafting and Automation in Applied Energistics

Introduction to Crafting Features
