📋 About This Mod
Description:
This small mod allows you to plant Nirnroot and Crimson Nirnroot if you have completed "A Return To Your Roots". If you have not completed it yet, you will be able to once you have done so, or if you have already you will find you can now plant them.
Compatibility:
This mod should be compatible with almost anything, as it merely adds them to the Formlists using scripts. It should work with planters using the vanilla hearthfire formlists, so you can plant them in modded planters as well if they use these. It will probably not work with mods modifying the quest "A Return To Your Roots".
Requirements:
If you don't have the Unofficial Patch, you may encounter problems with the Crimson Nirnroot counter of the quest. Please install it, as it fixes a lot of vanilla bugs.
Installing:
Use your mod manager to install, or unpack and drop the esp and bsa in your data folder.
Uninstalling:
You won't be able to uninstall it from saves where your character can already plant Nirnroot. If you use a save that can't yet, you should be fine. One caveat: if you installed this and uninstalled before you completed "A Return To Your Roots", and install it again afterwards, it won't work on that save. You can fix this by typing "setstage NN01 200" in the console.
