I thought it would be nice if there would be something like potted plants added to the game. Especially since it's harder to gather food nowadays because there's not animals everywhere and you will get hungry really quick.
To make a potted plant you'll need something like clay, mud, seeds and water, so it won't be too easy to grow a plant so gathering food will still be a challenge. The clay will be have to put in a campfire to make it hard and make a pot out of it. The mud will ofcourse be the ground to put the seed in and watering it a few times will make it grow.
Ofcourse there must be some way to get mud, clay, seeds and water. Like for example, adding mud piles which you can dig in with a shovel, and water buckets or water bottles to water your plant. Seeds can be found on zombies or in chests or around trees. And clay can be found in rockpiles i guess.
Also there must be different seeds, for example to grow a fruit/vegetable plant or even be able to grow your own recipes to make medicines like anti-radiation pills or painkillers.
I know this is still in Alpha phase, but it might be a cool feature for future development.

Why arbitrarily restrict farming to potted plants?
Farming in general should take a long time. If Helk really wants the game to focus on long-term, hence his earlier post about "weeks? months?" it'd make sense that farming was done realistically and done in a way that made it sustainable, realistic, and akin to real farming.

Mainly because the potted plants will be put inside your base and not outside as it is way too dangerous outside. It's not like you can just go make a field of vegetables inside your base, that's why i suggested the potted plants.

Making the game easier and making players get to spend more time in the safety of their impenetrable cubes is not a step in the right direction in my opinion.
