Potato (C2)

The Potato (Solanum tuberosum) is a plant in Creatures 2. It is classified as a root. It is an ecological plant, which means it has certain requirements to grow. It requires inorganic nutrients between 130 and 200 and a temperature between 30 and 225.

The appearance of the potato is generally disliked, and several sprite replacements are available.

It can be monitored in the Ecology Kit.

When eaten, it gives:
 * Hunger Decrease 100
 * Starch 100
 * Protein 100
 * Water 100

Please note that there is conflicting information available about its edibility - the official C2 Species List asserts that it is inedible. The values above come directly from the scriptorium. Zap created a Modified Carrots & Potatoes COB which altered the potatoes to be invisible until they were ripe and make a noise when they were eaten.
