The main problem with farming chia with the original GUI is it takes lots of time to get rewards because of solo farming. (Chia Farming Hpool)
So to solve this problem Hpool has come up with pool farming.

Hpool Chia Plotting
There are two ways you can plot chia: Original Chia Plotter and Hpool Chia Plotter.
I will show you plotting with Hpool, and if you want to do it with the original chia plotter, check here.
Follow these simple steps to start plotting with chia.
Step 1: Download the chia plotter from Github
Step 2: Configuration
Edit the “plotting.bat” file.
After -fpk, you have to enter farmer public keys. After -ppk, you have to enter pool public keys. After -n, you have a number of plots to create. After -b, you have to specify the number of rams. After -d enter the final destination directory. After -t enter a temporary directory.
To get the farmer public key and pool public key, follow this instruction:
Head to this folder.
C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\chia-blockchain\app-1.1.6\resources\app.asar.unpacked\daemon
Open CMD.
C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Local\chia-blockchain\app-1.1.6\resources\app.asar.unpacked\daemon\chia.exe keys show
Enter the keys to the notepad as per instruction.
Save the file.
Step 3: Start Plotting
Double click on plotting.bat, so it starts plotting.
Plotting
To farm chia first step is to create a plot, and the letter k represents space. Plotting requires CPU and RAM to compute tables. Thus, plotting requires high-end machines.
Harvesting
After completing plots, harvesting involves waiting for the number to be called out to get rewards. Most of the time, a harvester will not find the required value in a plot, but when it does, it gets something called a “proof of space,” which proves that a lot of space has been allocated to a piece of land.
