    Alright, quick rundown of what this all means again. You can skip this if you want... or don't... I'm just text on a page:

    1. This guide is for items sold per stack at ‘/warp shop’ on Skyblock economy, including details from my perspective on how effective/ineffective a farm is overall.
    2. Any items listed in the sell price will be per stack (AKA - 64 items total).
    3. Average price to set up means the lowest cost to make said farm vs the highest (minimum) cost to make it effective
    4. Return rate means how effective it is at making you money back for the parts you bought to make the farm work
    5. Crop hopper compatible means ‘can a crop hopper be used’. Note: Crop hoppers can auto harvest whatever crops are listed on it within a given chunk
    6. Auto, Semi-Auto or manual means the farming method. Namely, can the farm be auto harvested, can it be semi-auto harvested, or, does it require some good ol' manual labor to make it work. All factors to consider when getting farms
    And now, for the Mushroom farm selling price guide


    Mushroom Farming:

    • Sell price: $122.88 for both Red and Brown Mushrooms

    • Average price to set up: Free to $36,000 (If using Stone or Cobble), $275 to $72,000 (if using Mycelium)

    • Return rate: Hopeless to Average

    • Details on farm: There’s a Fungus among us. With this farm, you can make mushrooms as a reliable food source for mushroom stew, or even with a silk touch axe to use for building materials for any fantasy based island or build you have in mind

    • Auto, Semi-auto, or Manual: Semi-Auto, dispensers, pistons (Minecart with hopper systems at a stretch)

    • Crop Hopper Compatible: No

    • Crop Hopper Level required: N/A

    • Positives: Mushrooms can be grown on most solid blocks (like cobblestone, stone bricks, dirt, etc), as well as Podzol and Mycelium; Podzol allows mushrooms to grow both with, and without light sources, whereas Mycelium can allow mushrooms to grow in the day time; high sell price at ‘/warp shop’ means you can sell a lot of them for some easy money

    • Negatives: Mycelium requires a light level of 9 or higher for the mushrooms to be able to be grown at all, whereas something like stone or cobble needs a light level of 12 or less for it to grow; Mushrooms take a while to be gathered in a stack, so takes longer to get money back.

    • Tier level: Satisfactory

    • Final thoughts: Mushrooms are amazing to look at, a great food source in emergencies, but not super ideal in the beginning for earning money. Over time though, if you have the patience to allow the mushrooms to gather in a stack, this can really come in handy when money is tight for you.
