Hardware Requirements for Chia Coin Farming As of now, Chia plotting takes 6-7 hours for plotting to generate a standard k=32 plot (twice as long at k=33), with a very fast Optane 905P SSD. Multiple plotting can be done if you have sufficient hardware resources. The time limit will increase accordingly.

But realistically, no one farms a single Chia plot expecting to earn a profit. A more reasonable minimum size for a Chia farm is 10 terabytes. A single 10 terabyte drive holds 91 plots, which means it would earn about $20.02 per month mining in a pool at today’s prices.10 Ağu 2021

First you need to clear a field (i.e., delete any files on your storage devices that are taking up space), then you plow and seed the field (compute a plot for Chia) , and then… well, you wait for the crops to grow, which can take quite a long time when those crops are Chia blocks.3 Ağu 2021
