As of now, I'm stuck trying to make that Teddy Bear, which requires more cotton than even making a Tungsten set.
I got 2 seeds and waiting them to grow after watering each stage takes a lot of time, which makes a bad choice. What can I do to gather all the required cotton to make the teddy bear?
There is currently no way to increase inventory space, although, since this is still beta, I would expect this to change. But the current answer is no, those two bags are all you have. Obviously, once this changes, I will attempt to remember to come back and edit this answer.
To upgrade your ship, you'll need Upgrade Modules. The amount you need is 2, 4, 6, 8, then 10 respectively for each upgrade. These can be found in chests, reward bags, and rarely as monster drops.
You must then obtain a ship license. This can either be done by getting Crew Members (2, 4, 6, 8, 10) for completing quests for settlers and hiring penguin mercenaries (after defeating Dreadwing), or alternatively by buying the license from The Penguin Bay at the outpost for increasing (10,000, 20,000, 40,000, 80,000, 150,000) amounts of pixels:
Once you have the upgrade modules and the license (fake or real), you'll need to visit Penguin Pete at the outpost, who will carry out the upgrade:

Currently cotton plants are the only viable way to obtain cotton. You also need cotton to craft the tier II armors, so you should get several of them.
When you plant your cotton plants (or any crop, for that matter) outside on a planet with frequent rain you don't need to water them yourself. So you can just go exploring while your farm keeps growing on its own.
