📋 About This Mod
For some reason in vanilla game you cannot grow Ancient Crops in garden pots (well, it's fair enought it won't grow in a pot actually) and I just recently discovered it, lol. So I made this small tweak that will allow to plant them in pots.
Meant to be used with Leah Gives You Clay Pot mod in the first place. Thanks to Bloodstrael for giving the idea!
Installation:
[]Install SMAPi, Content Patcher.
[]Unzip "Ancient Seeds in Garden Pots Allowed" archive into Stardew\Mods folder.
[]Run the game using SMAPI.
[]Enjoy.
This mod is compatible with pretty much anything and is safe to install on already existing save files.
