== Usage ==

Opening the Farming Station's GUI gives access to its internal slots. A capacitor can be added to the bottom left, below the red power bar. Capacitors increase the range, power use, and power storage of the Farming Station. Tools and fertilizer go in the top row, while seeds are placed in the center four slots with padlock icons. Up to four different plants can be managed in separate quadrants. Locking a seed will prevent any other from being used in that quadrant. The six slots in the bottom right are output. The Farming Station can automatically push/pull items when configured using the white gear icon interface. As a RF machine, it can be powered with RF or EU from a GregTech power source. In its smallest configuration (7x7), the Farming Station passively consumes ~225 EU/s even when not actively working, and significantly more when harvesting or planting. For wood harvesting, three Vibrant Photovoltaic Cells (480RF/t) and a Basic Capacitor will let a 7x7 Farming Station work all day and night with default size/growth speed trees, such as Darkwood or Birch. Conduits can be used to provide power and item logistics with a minimal footprint.
