Feeling a little alutristic? Great. Here's how you can help out.

Sterile Papyrus

• Activity: Making Sterile Papyrus
  
• Requires: Papyrus Seeds
• Supplies: Papyrus Seeds located in warehouse at 859, 2386 labelled "Papyrus Tank - 7 seeds = 35 sterile papyrus", set to Member level.
• Location: Papyrus Compound (860, 2385)
  
• Level: Initiates and above (Member and above for access to seeds)
  
• Destination: Warehouse at 860, 2387 labelled "Sterile Pappy"

To help make Sterile Papyrus, we need to collect it from the Tanks and then load it with new seeds. We have 80 tanks, and you can service any number of them as you desire.

From left to right, we have an empty tank, one that's in the middle of growing, and one that has finished growing.

Empty

-->
If tank is empty, click on it, then select Plant Papyrus. When asked how many seeds, type in 7 and then click Ok. 7 seeds will net us a yield of 35 sterile papyrus, and is the most appropriate return for effort.

Note: there's a Max button, if you click that, it will plant 100 seeds (whilst not the end of the world, the returns are not as efficient). Equally if you click Ok without typing a number, this will plant just one seed. Again, not the end of the world, but it will lock the tank out for the growing cycle and only return 7 papyrus.

Once you have planted, this will cause the tank to go into the growing stage, you won't be able to abandon or change the number of seeds. Don't panic, just let it grow whatever's there.

Growing

No action required whilst it's growing. The tank will not allow you to do anything with it, so don't worry, you can't break it :)

Harvesting

If the tank is ready to be harvested, click to Harvest it. The stock will go into your inventory, so be careful if your weight/bulk is low, you could be collecting 2,800 sterile papyrus if all tanks are ready to harvest, and all had 7 seeds. Some folks may mis-click the Max button during planting, and therefore have 700 to pick up - this can overwhelm your capacity. Take it slowly, do a few at a time until you get the hang of it.

Once harvested, you can go to the Empty section above to plant a new crop.
