Re: Growing above ground crops underground

Beware that these new big trees cast shadows that remove light under them.  If you channel an area and roof it over, then a tree grows near the place and overhangs your roof, the underground farm goes dark and you can no longer plant above-ground crops.  The good news is when you chop down the tree the light finds its way back underground.

In my experience this only applies to trees that were present from the beginning. If you channel into the ground but neglect a tree branch, the tile will still be dark until you cut down the tree. But if a tree branch grows over the tile later on, it won't cause the tile to become dark.
