Sulfur Plant (Subnautica)

The Crash Plant is a Flora that has a symbiotic relationship with the Crash.

Appearance

The Crash Plant is dome-shaped when closed, with little room between the four rounded petals. When the plant opens up and releases the crash, it also reveals the fleshy-looking interior of the plant. The exterior of the Crash Plant is black, while the inside is mostly pink with a light yellow line at the edges.

Behavior

When the player gets too close, the Crash Plant opens up like a flower and will emit a kind of gurgle, revealing the crash inside. If the player continues to approach the crash will charge the player. Once the Crash Plant is empty the player can harvest Crash Powder from it. If undisturbed the Crash Plant will spawn a new crash in 15-20 minutes. This can be prevented by killing the Crash Plant by using a Survival Knife. However, if the Crash Plant is killed, crash powder will no longer be able to be farmed from it.

Data Bank Entry

This plant species appears to share a symbiotic relationship with the aquatic lifeform that nests inside it. The petal-like structures appear undamaged when the lifeform emerges, and likely remain open until the nest is reclaimed by the original owner, or another.

Further information on this relationship is not possible from studying the plant in isolation.

Trace amounts of a sulphuric residue have been detected on the inner leaves.
