An example of a fully automatic system

This page is to show a way to create an automatic fertilizer system to feed your crop matron.

DJ&Riggaz's Automatic Fertilizer Machine

Having an automated way of creating fertilizer can really assist in the production of crops. So this is for those who don't want to have to make their own fertilizer but rather let the beautiful machinery of tekkit do it for you. These steps are shown on Youtube here!.

• Start by building an automatic cobblestone generator which will produce all the necessary supplies for a recycler. See this page for cobblestone generator
• Place a recycler which is powered (best from the rear) a few blocks away from the output of the cobblestone generator.
• Next connect the end of the cobblestone generator to a the top of a recycler by way of cobblestone / stone transport pipes or by way of pneumatic tubes, which could be the smarter option causing less lag at higher levels of production.
• Beside the recycler place a wooden transport pipe off the left, right or both sides of the recycler, which should be connected to a cobblestone / stone transport pipe which will take the scrap to a nearby chest.
• This should lead to a chest, preferable one of the Iron Chest Mod such as a Diamond or Crystal Chest.
• To the side of this chest should be an Automatic Crafting Table with the pattern of fertilizer without the need for bonemeal.

• Now add a wooden transport pipe followed by one cobblestone or stone transport pipe.
• This pipe should be connected to a distribution transport pipe which should have two outputs.
• One of the outputs should lead straight to the Crop-Matron and the other should lead back to the chest with scrap in it. This should lead to a continual supply of fertilizer to the Crop-Matron as well as back into the system for further production.

• It's wise to note that changing the speed of the timer attached to the cobblestone generator will increase or decrease production of fertilizer.
