Original PR: Skyrat-SS13/Skyrat-tg#25328
About The Pull Request
This PR adds the plant tank-- a structure that when five sand is placed inside, allows the use of simple farming. That is not all that it can do. If you take grown food (produce) or worm fertilizer and place it inside the plant tank while it has a plant growing, it will slowly produce nitrogen and convert carbon dioxide to oxygen.
There are a few other changes beyond just adding the plant tank. Some changes include that the simple farm will set its glide size to whatever its parent atom is-- which means that if you plant stuff in minecarts or in the plant tank, the simple farm plant will actually move with the parent rather than doing a weird glitchy motion. Another thing that was added was that if the parent item (minecarts, plant tanks, etc. ) are deleted/removed, it will also remove the farm (which I don't know why I didn't add this earlier).
How This Contributes To The Skyrat Roleplay Experience
Realistically, plants do participate in the nitrogen cycle, as well as the oxygen cycle through photosynthesis. I think this is a nice way to allow another production of nitrogen and oxygen beyond the other methods (HFR for nitrogen and SM for oxygen).

add: added the plant tank-- allows simple farm growing and production of nitrogen and oxygen
fix: simple farms will now destroy themselves if their parent atom is destroyed
