# Denton Root Patch

![Denton Root Patch](images/denton-root-patch.png)

The Denton Root Patch produces roots to be used as food by your empire. The roots only grow in orbit
5 and 6 (its goldilox zone). The higher the level of the patch the more food it produces.

All plants need a source of phosphorus to photosynthesize their food. Therefore you need a good
source of gypsum, sulfur, or monazite for plants to thrive.

#### Requirements

- Denton Root Plantation Lvl 5
- Planet in orbit 5 or 6
- Source of phosphorus (gypsum, sulfur, monazite)
