Details
Growth Stages 2
Yield 3 - 4
Nutrition/Unit 9.0 - 9.6
Oxygen Production 0.26

Beetroot seeds can be found in abandoned habitats and bases whilst exploring the surface of Mars. With cultivation methods currently available in the beta of Occupy Mars it is also the single most filling food item

Cultivation requires the use of the Incubator and the Hydroponic Shelf (either small or large) to grow to maturity

Each mature plant provides three to four (3 - 4) beetroot (confirmation of quantity without a full stage 1 in incubator needed) with a nutrition value of 9.0 - 9.6 each. Seeds can be extracted using the Seed Machine at a ratio of 1:1.

Growing Stages
Cultivation Station max. Maturity Avg. Grow Time
Incubator 50% ~20 hours
Hydroponic Shelf 100% ~20 hours

Recycling beetroot seedlings or beetroots in the Composter will yield the following results, dependant on the maturity of the plant
