What is a good terra steel farm? I have got 6 NightShades, 4 DayBlooms, 1 ManaStar and two Mana Spreaders and a Normal Mana Pool. It's going really slow. What are any good ideas? Yes, I know terrasteel is like an end game material, but is it supposed to go that slow at all times? It has been alot and I could only power 4 petals with mana.
EDIT:
What does a ManaStar do? Also what is the best Mana-Generating Flower?
I've had the best luck with just tons of dayblooms. 9x9 area with the spreader in the center, and putting every other bloom either in a hole or on a block of dirt (so they don't interfere). I think the fastest flower for making mana might be the gourmarylus, though that requires some kind of food farm as well. If you're running an older version of Botania (and have blood magic as well), thermalilly can produce tons of mana.

I'm running the one version that has two mana pools, 1 not that effective and another one that is more effective. And I do have Blood Magic mod. (The one with sigils, if that's what you're talking about.)
A couple versions ago, Botania gave the thermalilly a pretty big cool down before it'll eat more lava. They make a decent bit of mana when they eat, but will eat much less often. If you do have the right versions of Botania and Blood Magic, you can use the Serenade of the Nether to easily make lava to feed them.
If not, consider playing around with the other flowers, or gourmarylus. If you happen to have Soul Shards installed, a cow spawner making steaks constantly to feed the flower will make you plenty of mana. I tried the slime flower once, but either my slime farm was poor (certainly possible), or the dayblooms are just really good. It all depends on if you mind having a large field doing something, or just want a handful of flowers to do the work.

Thanks! I will try it out.
