Farm Settings

Configure lifecycle stages, transitions, units, grading, and lab features

admin

Farm Settings

Settings is the central configuration page for your farm. It controls how Sporeline models your production lifecycle — which stages exist, how blocks can move between them, what units you measure in, and how you grade harvests. It lives at Settings (the root settings page).

Active Stages

The Active Stages section shows every available lifecycle stage. Check the box next to each stage your farm uses. There is no fixed list: a new farm starts with Inoculated, Incubating, Fruiting and Completed (plus Contaminated and Discarded), and you add or remove stages from there. Unchecking a stage also removes it from all stage transitions automatically.

Custom display names — when a stage is active you can type a custom label (up to 30 characters) into the text field on that row. The internal stage code remains unchanged; only the display name shown in the UI changes.

Include Culture / Agar Stages — a quick toggle that enables or disables the four lab culture stages at once: Culture Isolation, Agar Transfer, Colonizing, and Spawn Ready.

Entry Stage — the dropdown at the bottom of this section sets the default starting stage when new blocks are created. Only active stages appear as options.

Stage Transitions

This section defines which stages a block is allowed to move to from each active stage. Terminal stages (Completed and Discarded) have no outbound transitions and do not appear here.

For each source stage, click the target stage pills to enable or disable that transition. Enabled transitions appear highlighted; disabled ones appear grey. Only active stages appear as transition targets.

Unit Preferences

Choose the default units used across the workspace:

  • Weight: Grams (g), Pounds (lb), or Ounces (oz)
  • Temperature: Fahrenheit (F) or Celsius (C)

These units apply to harvest recording, reports, and all weight and temperature displays.

Grading Scheme

Define the quality grades used when recording harvests. The default scheme is A, B, C.

To add a grade, type the name in the input and click Add or press Enter. To remove a grade, click the X button next to it. At least one grade must remain.

Lab & Culture

Enable optional lab tracking modules for your workspace:

FeatureDescription
Lab TrackingTrack culture library, agar plates, and liquid culture production. Must be enabled before the sub-features below.
Cryo StorageManage cryogenic culture storage with viability monitoring. Requires Lab Tracking.
Trials & Strain DevelopmentRun small-scale fruiting trials and promote validated strains to production. Requires Lab Tracking.

Disabling Lab Tracking automatically disables Cryo Storage and Trials.

Saving

Changes are not applied until you click Save Settings. The Reset button discards unsaved changes and reloads the saved state from the server.

Danger Zone

The Danger Zone at the bottom of the page lets you permanently delete your own account. This does not affect the farm’s data, blocks, batches, or other team members — it only removes your personal account. You must type DELETE to confirm.

Try this on your own farm. Free for up to 100 blocks a month.
