A small sericulture farm.

Sericulture allows you to process Silkmoths into silk. Silkmoth can still be caught and bred without this skill.

Production

1. Catch a male and a female Silkmoth. They are randomly seen flying around Grassland and Forest Terrain.
2. Place the Silkmoths into the same container. After 8 hours (real-time), they will die and lay 5-10 Silkworm Eggs. Any Silkmoth without a mate will also die, but without producing eggs. The quality of the eggs will be the average of the parents +/- 5.
3. Put Silkworm Eggs onto an Herbalist Table for 8 hours (real-time). They will hatch into Silkworms. If the table's quality is below that of the egg, the worm's quality will be reduced.
4. Silkworms check for and eat Mulberry Leaves every 4 hours (real-time). If they miss a meal more than once, they die. Whenever a Silkworm eats a leaf of lower quality than itself, the Silkworm's quality will lower. After eating four, they will turn into Silkworm Cocoons.
5. Silkworm Cocoons will hatch into a Silkmoth of a random gender after 16 hours (real-time). Alternatively, they can be boiled for 1 Silk Filament. This is modified by your Nature/Industry slider; full Nature will award 2 Filaments, whereas full Industry will award 0.
6. 10 Silk Filaments can be spun into 1 Silk Thread on a Spinning Wheel, 10 of which can be woven into 1 Silk Cloth at a Loom.
