> **Original concept by Darkhax.**
\n> This datapack is inspired by their Botany Pots mod. While it aims to recreate the same core idea, name, look, and crafting recipes, it is an independent implementation and may have small technical or balancing differences due to datapack limitations.<\/p>\n
\n> Powered by [Beet]<\/p>\n
This datapack adds the **Botany Pot**, a compact and decorative farming block that allows you to grow crops in a single space while automatically replanting them after harvest.<\/p>\n
Perfect for aesthetic builds, **compact farms** (_try the Hopper Botany Pot_), or simplified crop setups.<\/p>\n
\n—<\/p>\n
## \ud83d\udce6 Crafting<\/p>\n
Craft the **Botany Pot** using the same recipe as the original mod version.
\nPut a hopper in the center in order to get the **Hopper Botany Pot**
\n**_Or check the image gallery._**<\/p>\n
Once crafted, place it like any normal block.<\/p>\n

## \ud83c\udf3e How to Use<\/p>\n
Using the Botany Pot is simple:<\/p>\n
### 1\ufe0f\u20e3 Insert Soil
\nRight-click the placed Botany Pot with a valid soil block.<\/p>\n
Different crops require different soils. For example:
\n– Wheat \u2192 Farmland
\n– Nether Wart \u2192 Soul Sand<\/p>\n
Make sure you use the correct soil for the crop you want to grow.<\/p>\n
### 2\ufe0f\u20e3 Plant the Crop
\nRight-click the Botany Pot with the seed or crop item.<\/p>\n
The crop will begin growing immediately.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## \ud83c\udf3f Growth & Fertilizer<\/p>\n
– Crops grow automatically over time. (remember the light conditions)
\n– You can speed up growth by right-clicking with Bone Meal.
\n– You can block growth using honeycomb \/ restore it using a axe<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## \ud83c\udf3b Harvesting<\/p>\n
– Right-click a fully grown crop to harvest it.
\n– The crop will automatically replant itself.
\n– Left-click with an empty hand to remove contents.
\n– The Hopper Botany Pot will automatically harvest the crop when ready. Remember to put a hopper below it, or your resources will go lost.<\/p>\n

## \u2699\ufe0f Customization
