How to Use Extended Bone Meal

Fertilizing New Plants

Extended Bone Meal Mod expands what Bone Meal can do. In vanilla, Bone Meal only speeds up certain crops like wheat, carrots, and potatoes. With this mod, you can also apply Bone Meal to Cactus, Vines, Sugarcane, and Netherwart in the Nether.

To use it, simply right-click the plant with Bone Meal in hand, just like you would with normal crops. The plant will grow faster or instantly, depending on the plant type. This makes it possible to build farms for these plants that were previously slow or impractical to grow in bulk.

Sneak to Instant Grow

Holding the sneak button while using Bone Meal makes crops grow instantly instead of just speeding them up. This gives you more control: use Bone Meal normally for gradual growth, or sneak-use it when you want the plant fully grown right away.

Bone Meal itself is unchanged in how you get it. You can still obtain it by killing Skeletons or by filling Composters. The mod only changes what you can use it on and how it behaves when you sneak.
