BPOP - Ore Cultivation in Botany Pots
This mod extends the functionality of Botany Pots, allowing you to cultivate various minerals and ores. It requires the Botany Pots mod to be installed (for versions 1.18.2 and above, Bookshelf is also required).
How It Works
The mineral cultivation system is simple and intuitive: use metal ingots as seeds and mineral blocks as soil (with some exceptions for special cases). Each growth cycle takes exactly one minute, with a yield of 2 to 3 resource units - exactly what drops when mining the corresponding ores under normal conditions.
Supported Resources
The mod supports cultivation of main Minecraft minerals: iron, coal, gold, redstone, lapis lazuli, diamonds, emeralds, and ancient debris. Support for copper and zinc from the Create mod is also included.
