BotanyPots × Farmer’s Delight – Improved Compatibility

# Overview This datapack improves compatibility between Botany Pots and Farmer’s Delight by fixing Rich Soil behaviour inside Botany Pots. # What this datapack does ## ✅ **Rich Soil compatibility** Allows all crops and trees that normally grow on dirt or farmland to also grow on Farmer’s Delight Rich Soil in Botany Pots Fully tag-based: compatible with many other botany pot crop and tree mods automatically ## 🌱 **Growth bonuses** Rich Soil: +12.5% growth speed (a small increase of 2.5% over Minecraft farmland and the vanilla Botany Pot value due to the work required to generate Rich Soil). Note: this means that on average, mushrooms that exclusively use rich soil will grow ~1 second faster. Rich Soil Farmland: +15% growth speed (vanilla value determined by the Botany Pots mod) ## ⛏️ **Hoe tilling inside Botany Pots** Right-clicking a Botany Pot containing Rich Soil with any hoe (only vanilla Minecraft hoes tested) converts it to Rich Soil Farmland This interaction recipe was missing from newer versions of vanilla Botany Pots, and mimics the behaviour of using a hoe on a botany pot containing dirt. ## 🔪 **Harvest crops with knives** V1.1 update - Use knives in the tool slot! This allows Sandy Shrubs, Wheat, & Grass to drop straw in a botany pot! Use my companion datapack, (https://modrinth.com/datapack/botany-pots-more-crop-compatibility) to enable Rice to also drop straw! # Compatibility Requires (https://modrinth.com/mod/botany-pots) - (Fabric version tested) Requires (https://modrinth.com/mod/farmers-delight-refabricated) for Rich Soil + Knife compatibility ## 🧩 **Compatible with:** (https://modrinth.com/mod/botany-pots-tiers) (https://modrinth.com/mod/botany-trees) Safe to add or remove from existing worlds ## 📦 Works well with my other data packs (https://modrinth.com/datapack/botany-pots-more-crop-compatibility) for more crops and fixes Rice harvesting) (https://modrinth.com/datapack/botany-trees-x-farmers-delight-expanded-compatibility) for more Tree support, missing cutting board recipes, axes and more! # Instructions ## 📥 **Installation** Download the datapack Place the ZIP file into: ``` <world folder>/datapacks/ ``` ## ⚙️ **Customising growth bonuses (optional)** You can edit the growth speed values yourself: Open the datapack .zip Navigate to: ``` data/botanypots/recipe/farmersdelight/soil/rich_soil.json ``` Change ``` "growth_modifier": 0.125 ``` Example values: 0.10 = 10% faster (default value from the Botany Pots mod, same as Minecraft Farmland) 0.15 = 15% faster (same as Rich farmland) Changes apply after /reload or world restart. ## **Versions** I'm sure this probably works on more versions than just 1.21.1, but that's all I tested it for at the moment! Feel free to test it if you wish.
