If you are looking to keep terraforming your new home planet inThe Planet Crafter, you will need to collect and create a massive amount of materials. While many of these can be found out in the world, there are a whole bunch that require specific crafting machines.
One of the later-game items that can be difficult to figure out is something called Explosive Powder, which is needed for some upgrades as well as machines inThe Planet Crafter. In order to get the recipe for this item, you will need to complete several steps first.
How to Get a Biolab in The Planet Crafter
Explosive powder is made by first building a Biolab, then using it to create the powder. to get the Biolab, you will need to reach a 835gBiomass inThe Planet Crafterto unlock the recipe in the Q building menu.

Once you have gathered all the ingredients, you’ll be able to craft this massive addition to your base.
