Harvest Only Ripe Crops and Leave Immature Plants Alone

Enable Smart Harvesting

Use the command /farmassistant harvest to turn on auto-harvesting. The plugin will now only break fully grown crops and skip anything that isn't ready yet.

Harvest a Row

1. Look at a row containing fully grown crops

2. Break just one mature plant by left-clicking it

3. The plugin automatically detects the row direction and harvests all ripe crops in that line

4. Immature crops stay in the ground to continue growing

Control What Gets Harvested

Use /farmassistant harvest <crop> to enable or disable harvesting for specific crops. For example, you might want to harvest wheat but leave beetroot growing. This gives you fine control over which plants the plugin touches.

Collect Your Items

By default, harvested items go straight into your inventory. If you prefer items to drop on the ground instead, use /farmassistant toInventory to toggle this behavior.
