Just a hunch that the shoutbox messages counts towards it as a post.

You could just setup this high in the sky, probably by bumping the height limit to 1024.
Height limit would have to be over a hundred kilometers if we were to set that thing on space. -
I was talking about GT5U portable scanner. That one scans the crop while its on the field and tells you everything about the crop block. Alot of useful stuff like environment stats (nutrient, hydration and air quality).
I never had problems distinguishing crops with default textures.

Ideally you can have lots of 21/31 2x2 plots to just crossbreed new seedbags, which would be safer as they are guaranteed to not go over 23 growth (and your crops stats would always be near perfect).
Also make sure those plots are separate enough from each other to prevent weed infestation if something goes wrong at any point.
Although, I'm used to crossbreed and spread fields on the go (while always scanning them and destroying any growth >21 crop).
This can be done at the very early stage too since the scanner doesnt need the crop to be mature as you probably know. -

Those crops that have growth >= 24 don't get turned into weeds, nor textures. They are supposedly immune to weeds too.
Weeds convert dirt into grass aswell yes. -
weeds only spread to other cropsticks.
Also, beware when you have high growth crops. If one of your recently crossbred crops get a growth of 24, it will weed the crops around it, destroying them.
Also also, go for quality AND quantity. Aurelia and ferru produce much more slower than the other metal crops.
You don't need perfect stats (21/31) just get something around 19-21 and 29-31. -

Afaik thats railcraft smoker block.

Best y level is 128 and above, so 160 is fine.
IC2 crop biome environment bonus is not based on temperature and humidity forestry-like, but on biome types.
Fertilizer and water greatly boosts the environmental values of nutrient and humidity, so you should be fine.

Sky view is not a mandatory thing though. If you have all the other things, you should be fine.
-
Crops don't really care about actual daylight though. They just want to see the sky.
If that condition is met, you can even grow them in full darkness (with the exception of flowers that require light >= 12 and redwheat that requires light between 5 and 10)Swampy biome, height 128+, 3 blocks of dirt below the farmland and sky vision is all you need heh. Maybe a cropmatron there with water... after the bug gets fixed.

Just a reminder that caves arent the best for crops (blocked sunlight).
