What to know
-
Start from the alien area with the power plant and the large tower, then head northeast toward the target site.
-
The first growbed is on the roof, and it is easy to miss if you only search at ground level.
-
You only need two scans total to unlock the growbed blueprint.
-
The second growbed is nearby on the ground, so you do not need to travel to a different biome or region.
Growbeds are one of the most useful early blueprint unlocks in Subnautica 2 because they let you grow plants close to your base and reduce dependence on scavenged food and resources. This route is especially efficient because both scan points are clustered together, which makes the unlock quick once you reach the area.
Growbed Blueprint details
How to reach the growbed location
The route begins in the alien area where the power plant is located, near the large tower and the Rosetta point.

From there, the path goes northeast until you reach the area with the growbed scan points. The location is part of normal progression, which means it is not a hidden detour but a place you can naturally reach through the main route.

Once you arrive, the first scan target is already above you on the roof.
Step 1
Arrive at the alien power plant area and the large tower, using that zone as your starting landmark.

Step 2
Head northeast from that position until you reach the area containing the growbed blueprint pieces.

Step 3
Look up to the roof of the structure.

And scan the first growbed there.

Step 4
Move left from that roof spot and check the ground for the second growbed.

Step 5
Scan the second one to complete the blueprint unlock.

The perfect route for Growbed blueprint
This location works well because it removes the usual fragment hunt that forces players to explore multiple zones. Instead, it is a direct, compact setup with both scans inside one connected space. It also fits naturally into main progression, so players can grab it without treating it like a separate side excursion. For a growbed blueprint, that makes it one of the cleaner unlocks in the game.
