Pam's HarvestCraft is a mod that adds additional crops to the game, as well as fruit and nut trees, dozens of new food recipes, and new blocks to change the way you cook!
In Blightfall, repeated consumption of the same food item results in diminishing returns of its nutritional value. Therefore, having a wide variety of food items is critical to survival, especially in the early-game.
Crops[]
Below is a list of the seeds and saplings that can be found in Blightfall.
Seeds[]
Asparagus, Broccoli, Cabbage, Cucumber, Eggplant, Parsnip, Peas, Scallion, Spice Leaf, Tomato, Turnip, Zucchini
Additionally, Sunflower Seeds can occasionally be obtained, but they cannot be planted.
Saplings[]
Almond, Apple, Chestnut, Date, Olive, Peppercorn, Pistachio
Other Foodstuffs[]
Bubbly Water, Butter, Cheese, Dough, Flour, Honey, Salt
Blocks[]
Pam's adds several blocks as well. This includes Salt Ore and Compressed Salt Blocks, and Candles that act like colored torches. Blocks with more complicated features are listed below.
Apiary[]
The Apiary is a block that allows for the raising of bees for honey and beeswax. It makes you wonder, are there even any bees on this planet?
Oven[]
The Oven functions like a furnace, but cooks only food, and uses Cooking Oil as a fuel source instead of typical fuels. Additionally, it cooks twice as fast as a furnace and is twice as efficient, cooking 16 pieces of food per Oil.
Presser[]
The Presser can be used to process Honeycombs and Waxcombs into Honey and Beeswax, Water into Bubbly Water, Wood into Paper, and Pumpkin Seeds into Cooking Oil.
Additionally, several fruits can be processed into juice, Olives and Sunflower Seeds into Cooking Oil, and Sugar Cane into Sugar. This is not recommended though, as this does not provide additional products, and is less efficient than simply crafting the item.
Sinks[]
Sink blocks come in four varieties. They are functionally identical, acting as single-block infinite water source, and differ only in appearance and recipe.
(Food related) TIPS
-Get a cooking for block heads set up right away
-Claim your seed/sapling bag every day
-Barley grows much faster than wheat
-Some cakes seem to avoid Diminishing returns
- Natura Berry bushes are found at some scout locations, brave the wilderness! (These open at least 20 different foods)
-Watermelon and Pumpkin seeds are found at scout locations, get them or the taint will, and you'll be SOL.
- Cocoa beans are easily grabbed from a jungle island while out scouting on a boat
-Make a Lunch box as soon as possible, 6 smart slots for food is so helpful
Difficulties With Food
- Bacon is only 'farmed' with Pig Iron tools (Blood, emerald, Iron) from Tinkers construct
- Meat Nuggets/ingots are from Minefactory Reloaded Slaughter house
- I found that only having 1 or two fridges was not convenient (Cooking for Blockheads) So, I took advantage of the multi block structure...
