How the Farm Planner sizes your build

Building a Rust farm without a plan ends in a base full of half-flooded planters and a battery that dies overnight. The Farm Planner takes your target output (cloth per hour, berries for tea, or pumpkins) and works backward to tell you exactly how many planters, water sources, lights and clones you need.

What you input

What it gives back

The planner outputs your output rate per hour, total water consumption, electrical draw and the number of clones you need to keep all planters filled across grow cycles. It also flags overbuilds โ€” if your power supply can't sustain the lights, it warns you before you waste copper wire.

Solo vs clan sizing

A solo player on a weekly server only needs 4-6 planters of GGGYYY hemp to fully cloth themselves and a build. A 4-man clan typically wants 12-16 planters and a dedicated berry tea operation. The planner handles both โ€” just dial in the planter count and it scales every other number.

Next steps

Once you've sized the farm, run it through the Farm Simulator for a full cycle-by-cycle breakdown, or jump to the Yield Calculator to factor in tea buffs and Bear Pie stacking for ore farming alongside.
