So, I found the part of IC2 that deals with the new crops, after accidently making a crop-stick, and not really knowing what is was. 100+ Sticks and seeds later, I have a few of the new plants, save for the 'useful' ones, in my opinion. What I mean is, Red wheat, Ferru, and Aureila. Now, I'm not too concerned about Aurelia, mainly 'cuz I can jump to the Neither, and knock over a few zombie pig men for gold nuggets, but Ferru, and Red wheat, I have a pressing need for. The reason being, they drop the two byproducts you can get anywhere else in the game, in a renewable fashion. When you mine out a redstone block, or an iron ore block, to my knowledge, it's gone for good, and there's no way to legit get a new block. That said, even with the abundence of iron and redstone, the reason I want to have the plants for these, is for an expairment to create a 100% renewible/infinately sustainable factory/settlement with Ic2 stuff.
Rambling aside, my question is; What are the growth conditions, specificly, to get Red wheat to grow? I know it's 'light level is red stone', and all that, but....I have a whole 'green house', made of wood, with nothing but redstone torches, after all the normal wheat and stuff has grown, and two crop-matrons, set up to put out all the needed stuff for about 30 someodd plants. [when one runs o ut, approximately, the system I have switches the other matron on, so, over weed-exing doesn't become a problem.] I have been trying for a good week or two now, and...I have gotten wheat, sugercane, venomilia, blackthrone, weeds, you name it, but no Red wheat....Is there something I'm missing here?
