Rice plants yields up to 7 rice after 5-6 days until harvest, making it the fastest food supply to establish a colony and ideal for limited growing seasons. It also grows much faster than other plants when planted on rich soil or on hydroponics basin reaching a growth rate of 230%, compared to ~150% of other plants. However, if planted in soil with less than 100% fertility, such as gravel, a rice plant may randomly die during growth and only a small percentage survive long enough to harvest.
