Dusk Cap is a food Plant which is found in Swamp Biome. It can be grown by planting a Fungal Spore and produces a Mushroom.

Food[]

It produces 2400 kcal Mushroom which is edible or be further cooked into Fried Mushroom at the Electric Grill, then into Mushroom Wrap at the Gas Range.

Fried Mushroom provides 2800 kcals, grants +1 Morale bonus and requires 2400 kcals of Mushroom.

  • (2800 kcals / 7.5 cycles) / 1 plant ≈ 373.33 kcals / cycle / plant
  • A Duplicant requires ~1000 kcals per cycle. So you need 1000/373.33 ≈ 2.68 plants per dupe.

Mushroom Wrap provides 4800 kcals, grants +4 Morale bonus and requires 2800 kcals of Fried Mushroom with additional requirement of waterweed to be planted.

  • (4800 kcals / 7.5 cycles) / 1 plant = 640 kcals / cycle / plant
  • A Duplicant requires ~1000 kcals per cycle. So you need 1000/640 ≈ 1.57 plants per dupe.

Growth[]

Dusk Cap requires temperature range of 5 °C - 35 °C (41 - 95 °F), and air pressure of 150 g - 10 kg. It requires Carbon Dioxide atmosphere. It requires darkness.

Wild[]

A wild Dusk Cap takes 30 cycles to grow.

Domestic[]

Dusk Cap can be planted in a Planter Box, a Farm Tile or a Hydroponic Farm. It needs to be fertilized with 4 kg/cycle of Slime.

  • Slime infected with Slimelung will not pass the germs to the plant or the harvest. This is still true as of version EX1-452242. (However, this might mean that your reserve of Slime may have been compromised.)

A domestic Dusk Cap takes 7.5 cycles to grow to maturity.

It is possible to have a highly sustainable mushroom farm with Puft ranching. One wild puft can sustain ~3 Dusk Caps, while a tame one can feed ~12.

Decor[]

A Dusk Cap has a decor value of 15 with 2 tiles radius.
