# What’s Grounded?
\nGrounded gives biomes massively more distinct identities, down to the very soil they stand on. Badlands now sport cracked, dry earthen clay. Tundra dirt has frozen into deep permafrost. *REST OF THE SOILS* These soils aren’t just pretty either–each incentivises growing certain crops faster on them, based on those crops’ real life growing preferences.
\n<\/p>\n
Grounded has built-in compat for:
\n – Farmer’s Delight
\n – *Biomes O’ Plenty*
\n – *No Man’s Land*
\n – *Terralith*<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Grounded primarily adds 5* new soil types that generate in the world.
\n – **Earthen Clay** is found in savannas and badlands.
\n\t – **Wheat** and **Bamboo** grow faster in Earthen Clay Farmland.<\/p>\n
– **Loam** is found in dark forests and jungles.
\n\t – **Sweet Berry Bushes**, **Pumpkins** and **Melons** grow faster in Loam Farmland.<\/p>\n
– **Permafrost** is found in snowy mountains and frozen taigas.<\/p>\n
– **Sandy Dirt** is found in savannas.
\n\t – **Carrots**, **Beetroots**, and Farmer’s Delight **Cabbages** grow faster in Sandy Farmland.<\/p>\n
– **Silt** is found in riverbeds, swamps, and aquifers.
\n\t – **Wheat**, **Potatoes**, Farmer’s Delight **Cabbages** and **Onions**, as well as Supplementaries **Flax** grow faster in Silty Farmland.<\/p>\n
Each soil has their own paths, farmlands, and grassy and coarse versions.<\/p>\n
Mulch and Nulch are decorative blocks that cover the base of the stem of plants placed on them, as if in a heaped flowerbed.<\/p>\n
Villages now have paths made from the appropriate soils for their biomes, as well as having their respective farmlands growing their ideal crops.<\/p>\n
