'''Nutrifungus''' grows on lichen-covered soil and must be planted in and stay in complete darkness. So long as the darkness requirement is met, it can be grown in any [[terrain]] that is sufficiently fertile to support a [[growing zone]]. This includes, but is not limited to, [[fungal gravel]] and [[hydroponics basin]]s. Due to its low fertility sensitivity, it takes fewer penalties from poorer soils than more sensitive plants, but also benefits less from being in hydroponics. Nutrifungus is immune to [[blight]]. An interesting exception to the rule that Nutrifungus can only grow in darkness is when planted around other mushroom-like emitters of light, such as Bryolux, Agarilux, or Glowstool.

==Analysis==
 
Nutrifungus grows very slightly slower than [[potato plant]]s, taking {{#expr:100*6/5.8 round 1}}% the time to grow for the exact same yield. In addition, yield per work is identical between the two crops, making them mostly identical for the purposes of food. Nutrifungus has even less fertility sensitivity than potatoes, so it actually grows faster in poor soil (the potato plant's usual niche).

However, a baseline pawn will work {{Bad|80%}} as fast with fungus due to the penalties of [[light|darkness]]. The [[Ideoligion#Lighting|Lighting: Darklight Preferred]] precept or [[Genes#Dark vision|Dark vision]] gene{{BiotechIcon}} both counteract any negative dark-related effect.

In addition, most [[ideoligion]]s dislike eating [[raw fungus]], with a {{--|3}} moodlet when cooked. This makes potatoes the superior overall choice for colonies without the [[Ideoligion#Tunneler|Tunneler]] [[meme]], so long as you can grow outdoors. With the Tunneler meme, growing nutrifungus becomes a no-brainer, as tunnelers hate non-fungus vegetables. They can be also viable if you are forced to grow crops under gravel or stony soil, such as in the [[biomes#Extreme desert|Extreme Desert]].

===Indoor Farming===
Even without the Tunneler meme, fungus can be worthwhile to sow. This is because nutrifungus can be grown in darkness, which lets you grow indoors without needing a [[sun lamp]]. Being indoors, in turn, lets you use [[heater]]s to control the temperature, and grow crops during the winter. So, even when considering the mood penalty of fungus, and the work penalties of darkness, this crop can be worthwhile to grow. Also since it grows in caves it considerably harder for raiders to set alight than other chemfuel feedstocks.

Nutrifungus can be grown in darkness. This means that [[sun lamp]]s are not required to grow fungus indoors. For example, you can easily grow fungus in dark, heated [[room]]s during the winter - without using nearly as much [[power]] as a sun lamp would require. Useful in colder climates, even when considering the usual mood penalty of fungus and work penalty of darkness.
  
 
It can also be grown freely if you are forced to (or [[Ideoligion#Darkness|want to]]) live under a [[sun blocker]]{{RoyaltyIcon}}. With a sun blocker, you'll still need to place a [[roof]] over the growing area for colonists to actually plant the crop.
