The outer perimeter provides room for fruit trees, chests, and other equipment like Seed Makers. However, the exact number of plants you can grow depends on your use of sprinklers.
How Many Plants Can the Greenhouse Hold?
Without sprinklers, you can plant up to 120 crops and 18 fruit trees (remember, fruit trees need two tiles of space between them). Sprinklers significantly impact your planting capacity, saving you time and effort. Here's the breakdown:

Efficient sprinkler placement is key. Note that sprinklers can be placed on the wooden border as well. To cover the entire inner section:
- Quality Sprinklers: 16 (occupying 12 inner tiles)
- Iridium Sprinklers: 6 (occupying 4 inner tiles)
- Iridium Sprinklers (with Pressure Nozzles): 4 (occupying 2 inner tiles)
- Iridium Sprinklers (with Pressure Nozzles): 5 (occupying 1 inner tile)
