How to Get Green Colander in Forever Skies

To find Green Colander in Forever Skies, you will need to visit either a Greenhouse or explore the Underdust Area.
Greenhouses can be located easily by using the Radar on your ship and traveling to the locations shown there. Head up the Greenhouse and you’ll find them stuck to the central pillar.

Keep in mind that to harvest any Green Colander, you will need to have a Knife.
The Knife is unlocked early on by scanning the blockade and can be crafted in the Fabricator with the following materials:
- 3x Polymer
- 6x Plastic Scrap
- 20x Metals
With the Knife crafted, simply use it to hit any Green Colander stuck on walls and you’ll be able to pick it up.
Alternatively, you can find Green Colander in the Underdust although it’s a bit harder to find there.
Where to Use Green Colander

Now that you’ve got Green Colander, let’s see how to use it. The first and most important use of this item is that you’ll need it if you want to upgrade your Oxygen Tank in Forever Skies.
It’s one of the materials needed to craft the Medium Oxygen Tank, which is an overall important upgrade.
Additionally, Green Colander can be used for food in case of need. Keep in mind that while it restores 30 Food, it also reduces Water by 15 and Health by 25 so it shouldn’t be your first option.
Lastly, Green Colander can also be used to cure Fever.
Wrapping up
To sum up, players can get Green Colander in Forever Skies by cutting it off walls in Greenhouses and all around the Underdust Area.
Then, they can use it to upgrade their Oxygen Tank, as food, or even to cure fever.
