Chapter 30: Planning the Upgrade (Seeking Recommendations, Seeking Favorites)
Maybe it’s a bit of an obsessive-compulsive disorder, like in games where you want a complete set of equipment rather than scattered pieces, Chen Xin prefers complete sets of things rather than a single item, so he hopes to upgrade the room as a whole rather than a single item.
This is, of course, for convenience and ease of mind; after all, you can use a whole set right away without the hassle of adjusting the compatibility between various components.
For someone knowledgeable, they certainly know which parts work best with which items, integrating different things for optimal performance.
But what about those who aren’t knowledgeable? Clearly, they wouldn’t be able to do that; those unaware might not even know what each component is for, so how could they integrate a whole set of things?
So, complete sets may not always be the best, but at least they are usable.
Although Chen Xin has put in effort to study survival in the apocalypse and has seriously understood some data from various aspects, he is obviously not an all-knowing survival expert.
Like a planting greenhouse, are there conflicts between a hydroponic planting tray and a drip irrigation system? Can drip irrigation be used in hydroponics? How should supplementary lights be used to ensure sufficient lighting for different crops?
These questions are something Chen Xin clearly can’t answer; his greenhouse setup came from a friend in his survival group who does hydroponics. If left to his own devices, he would probably just plow, plant seeds, and water them.
