I also don't understand the "treating" seeds.

Treating seeds is used to give seeds a headstart when they are going into the ground.

So wouldn't it be more realistic if you put your seeds through this to get a head start, so maybe it grows 1 month faster or something.

Now it's just a converter. You convert your wheat, Barley, oat etc etc to a seed.

Or am i wrong here?🤔🤔🤔

Yeah I hope giants will fix it tomorrow. As i have seen a lot of sony users complaining about it as well. A lot of them having the same issues from what i can tell youtube comments under some videos. So i dont think it's Microsoft or Sony.

Could be just cleaning them and not putting the coating on. Also it depends on the seed genetics on what they can withstand.

Im talking about the auger that is basically a seed factory. You can turn any crop into a seed. Im not talking about genetics.

To me the Seed Treater is like the Grain Dryer. Doesn't function as people initially thought!! People set the bar so high with such things expecting new feature and when the pack gets released then the disappointment sets in!! Am I surprised no. Not at peoples initial hopes of new feature because I look for them too. Its Giants initial teasing with fact sheets oh look a grain dryer and a seed treater and then you put the dlc in your game only to discover that they arent what you thought they were. What you are reading its just seed production from grain and we already have factories for that as mods. Oh it never gets dull!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yes you can do that irl too. You need to clean it first. You asked shouldn't it grow a month faster? No that is based on the genetics, so yes you are talking about genetics.

To me the release or I will rephrase that lack of release for certain platforms is an absolute shambles!! Well seen its a free dlc because if it was a paid dlc that I paid for up front I would be extremely mad right now!!

Most seeds are treated IRL wether it’s to help with nitrogen fixing or general emergence. You pretty much never see untreated seeds being planted. (How Farms Work, Welker Farms, and Mike Mitchell all have videos showing seeds being treated and why it’s done)

I know, but my point was:

Giants is saying seed treatening, but it has nothing to do with it! It's just a seed factory.

Which is basically how you make seeds… not sure what you’re trying to say.
Grain -> cleaning (desirably done but can’t blame GIANTS for skipping doubling crop fill types and making it more tedious with this step) -> treating -> ready to plant finished product

As a console player I'm just glad some more work aspects are being added whether they are the way it's done or not or just not technically correct, for now I'll take it. I never cared for the placeable seed factory aspect. This along with those tanks that released so I can make a sprayer setup adds more tasks to do myself and fill out my down time. Wish cleaning animals had been left in game
