Direct answer
Breeding happens through the research lab which unlocks later in progression (see the labs page). Expect to need biomass, seeds and specific plants before experiments can run.
The research workflow
- Unlock the lab and research station via progression quests.
- Feed biomass and seed/plant material into research.
- Select parent plants to steer toward traits.
- Harvest the resulting offspring and verify the new variety.

|---|---|---|
| Lab unlock requirements | Progression-locked | PARTIAL β via quests |

Evidence note
Genetics data is version-sensitive: playtest and demo pages mix mechanics that changed for 1.0. Nothing here is published as verified until reproduced in the current build.
OBSERVEDSteam discussions
Community reports confirm lab construction as the main late-progression blocker on launch week.
