I like the way we can secrete liquids into seeds, but I see an inherent issue;
What's the point of adding the liquid (whether it be nutrigrow into the seed or w/e), that is very much a waste, when you can add it into the pot and have it used for consecutive grows.
Instead, I think secreting a liquid into a seed should be coded the exactly the same as imbuing stuff in a deep fat fryer. The fruit would look the same, but would have the certain liquid in it grown.
Such as Space Cola imbued Watermelon. It would look the exact same as a normal melon but you would have "It smells like space cola" in the description.
Funnily enough this is how some botanical stuff is grown in real life, forcing a plant to secrete a certain substance through modification.
I could see this being used as an exploit, like someone injecting cyanide into a george melon and getting infinite cyanide, quickly produced. So perhaps there should be a whitelist of things that have a higher fail rate than others.
