Most Efficient Farm Setup using the least amount of equipment for t2&t3 seeds

Why?
Tier 2 and Tier 3 seeds require lifeforce from other colors. You get this lifeforce from dispersers connected to a storage tank of the other color. Instead of constantly fiddling with your garden, you can instead systematically always meet the t2/t3 seed requirements by having the 2 opposite colored dispersers available at every collector. This seems like it would take a lot of farming equipment, but if you set it up right it's easy to use very little.

Requirements;
3 Collectors (one of each color)
3 Storage Tanks
6 Dispersers (you can do it in 4 if you're stingy)
7 Pylons

-Place your 3 collecters lined up next to eachother south of the waypoint
-Leave 1 unit of spacing between them
---this is because farming equipment "takes up" a plant space, so we want to make sure it's out of the collector's radius
-In the 1 unit spacing between collectors place 3 dispersers.
-Place 3 storage tanks east of the waypoint
-Put 3 pylons directly in front of the storage tanks
-The first pylon next to the matching storage tank connects to storage tank & collector & 1x disperser
-The next 2 connect to the disperser + storage tanks
-The next pylon connects to disperser + collector + disperser
-The farthest connector pylons connects to disperser + pylon+ disperser
-Then the last pylon acts as an extension to the previous pylon to connect to the last colllector

Why have separate collectors for condensed life force?
Tier 2 and Tier 3 seeds have longer growth cycles than T1, but still require nearby plant types. Instead of constantly having to cycle plants, leave your tier 1 plants fully grown as your t2/t3 plants are growing. However, we will still want to farm lifeforce, so if we have a 2nd collector this lets you continue farming without messing up our t2/t3 setups.

Condensed Farming Collectors;
3 Collecters
3 Pylons

Check video for the closest land plots that collectors have full planting range in.

Edit: Sorry mods, I read that as "guides" not "guilds". Can you move this thread to help and discussion?
