# Cultivation

iM7s\_DrugRunning aims to extend upon the cultivation mechanics for an enhanced horticulture experience.

It does so by introducing new features such indoor grow operation abilities (i.e. [Grow Tents](#grow-tents) & [Hydroponics](#hydroponic-systems)) and new methods of cultivation for certain products (i.e. [psilocybin](#mushroom-cultivation) mushrooms, [coca](#coca-cultivation), [poppy](#poppy-cultivation), etc.).

{% hint style="info" %}
Cultivation Configuration Settings can be adjusted via `iM7s_DrugRun.json` in your server's `/config/iM7s_DrugRun` folder to best suit your server’s specific needs — *however*, the default values are *thoughtfully considered* and taken into account to provide a stable approach for integrating the mod into your economy.

<summary>Cannabis Cultivation</summary>

Cultivating Cannabis in the mod is a straightforward and relatively simple process.

First thing is first, you will need to acquire seeds, which can most commonly be found in their respective Seed Packs.

To reap the highest yield, you should always ensure fertilization steps are taken prior to planting your seeds.

Once the slot is fertilized, you simply plant the seeds into any 'Garden Plot' slot. This can be a vanilla garden plot, greenhouse, Grow Tent, Hydroponic System, etc. Other mods' greenhouses will work as well.

Ensure that the slot is properly watered, and the growth process will begin.

Once the plant has reached it's 'harvest' stage, you will be presented the "Harvest Crop:" prompt when approaching the plant in-game.

Harvesting will produce x amount of Bud Branches — each strain can vary it's yield amount of branches. This is entirely up to Server Owners to configure as they wish; they are set to either 2 or 3 branches by default.

For further production steps upon harvesting please refer to [cannabis-recipes](https://illmannersevs.gitbook.io/im7s_drugrunning-wiki/documentation/recipes/cannabis-recipes "mention")

You will find useful information within [#drying-rack](https://illmannersevs.gitbook.io/im7s_drugrunning-wiki/workstations#drying-rack "mention")and [#bud-trimmer](https://illmannersevs.gitbook.io/im7s_drugrunning-wiki/workstations#bud-trimmer "mention")as well.

By default the Cannabis plant growth times are set to `2400` seconds — 40 minutes.

{% hint style="danger" %}
Some users have reported experiencing that plants will despawn after exceeding `4` hours of time in-game. If you have a similar experience, please share your findings with us in the Support Server on [Discord](https://discord.gg/udRpffRuUh).

<summary>Mushroom Cultivation</summary>

Psilocybin cultivation has never been more immersive in DayZ. Let’s dive into how it works:

<div><figure><img src="https://3002346783-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FsIWrGDfFNLNIMnJJlU7B%2Fuploads%2FO0VYpYwxBqDGt2h8i99z%2FMysticVoids.jpg?alt=media&#x26;token=169c8dbf-3962-44e8-b791-f7c3269544e7" alt="Mystic Void Psilocybin Caps"><figcaption><p>Mystic Void Psilocybin Mushrooms</p></figcaption></figure> <figure><img src="https://3002346783-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FsIWrGDfFNLNIMnJJlU7B%2Fuploads%2F1fgF3XS2XU9c4Wx2SeZE%2FBlueVeils.jpg?alt=media&#x26;token=d624a6ae-23b2-40bc-8705-e29fb559e278" alt="Blue Void Psilocybin Caps"><figcaption><p>Blue Veil Psilocybin Mushrooms</p></figcaption></figure></div>

* In order to get started, you will need to acquire a **Spore Syringe.** They come in **5** variants:
  * <kbd>Blue Veil</kbd>
  * <kbd>Ghost Caps</kbd>
  * <kbd>Sunspores</kbd>
  * <kbd>Golden Teacher</kbd>
  * <kbd>Mystic Void</kbd>
* Once you have a **Spore Syringe**, you can now approach any **Garden Plot** with it in-hand and **Inject** the **Spore Culture** into the **Soil**/**Substrate** to start the process.
* Add **Water** to the filled seed slot.
* <mark style="color:$warning;">Protect your colony!</mark>
  * The growth process is default set to 1 Hour to full maturity.
  * Once the harvest stage is reached, you will see the prompt to "Harvest Crops".

{% hint style="info" %}
As of version 1.06 Psilocybin does not contain a further production process. However, if configured, players may still sell the shrooms to any trader/market as long as the server is configured for it.

The primary benefit of cultivating Psilocybin is notably the effects that can be experienced when consumed.

<summary>Poppy Cultivation</summary>

Poppy plants are the sole source of obtaining Opium and opening the gateway to producing any of the Opium-based products.

* Each 'Plant' default outputs 1 stack of 10 'Opium Knot' by default.
* Default grow durations for Poppy plants are set to `2400` — 40 minutes.

The following [JSON](https://illmannersevs.gitbook.io/im7s_drugrunning-wiki/server-files#im7sdrugrun.json) settings may be configured by Server Owners for further customization:

Coca cultivation is similar to the majority of other plants.

You will need to source the seeds, plant them into soil, and then await the harvest stage in order to collect the crops.

<div><figure><img src="https://3002346783-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FsIWrGDfFNLNIMnJJlU7B%2Fuploads%2FlJNukybH0UjBbmOKlWTR%2FCocaSeeds.jpg?alt=media&#x26;token=e8618d3b-c7e8-48c4-a082-4438ea36f5e7" alt="Coca Seed Pack"><figcaption><p>Coca Seed Pack</p></figcaption></figure> <figure><img src="https://3002346783-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FsIWrGDfFNLNIMnJJlU7B%2Fuploads%2F8L4PtqLRTO1615YsWAzO%2FCocaSeed.jpg?alt=media&#x26;token=7d8c50bf-dde1-47e6-a425-c666b12a902e" alt="Coca Seeds"><figcaption><p>Coca Seeds</p></figcaption></figure> <figure><img src="https://3002346783-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FsIWrGDfFNLNIMnJJlU7B%2Fuploads%2FD8SoAcUZ3MTnlqKdUBW0%2FCocaLeaf.jpg?alt=media&#x26;token=4e87f0e2-8aec-4f43-8d77-eb93dc61cd95" alt="Fresh Coca Leaves"><figcaption><p>Fresh Coca Leaves</p></figcaption></figure></div>

Coca crops output in stacks of 15. Therefore, by default, 3 x 15 = 45 total leaves.

<summary>Grow Tents</summary>

#### <mark style="color:$success;">Bringing indoor grow operations to life in the apocalypse.</mark>

<sup>Grow Tents allow for easy indoor setup to accommodate a single plant within it’s confines.</sup>

<div data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="https://3002346783-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FsIWrGDfFNLNIMnJJlU7B%2Fuploads%2FkadjrWQjVeGkVEVmSZgB%2FScreenshot%202026-02-13%20220133.png?alt=media&#x26;token=725dd96a-830a-4e72-a42f-a6cfbedf8848" alt="Room filled with Grow Tents"><figcaption><p>Room filled with Grow Tents and attached Grow LEDs</p></figcaption></figure></div>

The Grow Tent provides a single slot option for cultivation, and is designed to provide a portable growing operation method for users while ensuring that 'indoor' quality is sustained with the highest yield output as possible.

It has a kit option that can be created by Dismantling the tent via Screwdriver (vanilla) and then redeployed as desired.

{% hint style="warning" %}
As of Update 1.06 Grow Tents require a Grow LED & Car Battery to be attached in order to utilize them for cultivation. Without these required attachments, the seed slot will not appear.

In addition to this, server owners are given the option to determine whether plants cultivated in Grow Tents will yield a higher amount of crops. This can be customized in the `iM7s_DrugRun.json` file under the `tentCropCount` for each type of plant.

{% code title="../config/iM7s\_DrugRun/iM7s\_DrugRunning.json" expandable="true" %}

```jsonc
"tentCropCount": 5, // example -- each strain has an entry in the file
```

{% endcode %}
{% endhint %}
