TL;DR:

- You have a plant bay on the left and the level on the right. 

- Then you water plants in the plant bay to move and grow them. 

- The bigger the plant is, the more you move by watering it.

- Try to fill the board in minimal moves, or minimal realtime.

- Right click on plants in the plant bay to drop them down

- Left click in the plant bay to water, 

- or Left click in the plant bay pick up plants from the ground 

Setup:

You are a ship with a plant bay inside it, plants make you move or eat.

There are plants and seeds floating in space.

Can you make them grow and fill the whole space with plants?

Objective:

More of a sandbox experience, as there is no programmed victory condition.
Try to fill the whole level with plants and seeds, then with stage 3 plants.
In both cases please share a screen shot in the comments, trying to minimize either:

 - total sum of the needs of your captains (bottom left), or;

- total frame count it took to do that.
Have fun :D

Controls:
In the plant Bay:

- Left Click to water plant, it activates them and makes them mature or lay seed if able

  - If the tile is empty, and you are on a plant tile in the level, you plant the plant there in the plant bay

- Right Click to drop a plant or seed on the ground, if able


Additional infos:

- Plants have a one action cooldown

- The level or board wraps around both ways,

- Plant of stage N will give you N when watered/activated

- So you might be moving a lot in 3 increments, but as the board is of even sides, you should be able to cover most of the board with seeds easily ;)
