Frequently asked questions

How do I know if rain is actually speeding up my crops?
Watch a crop that's fully grown-adjacent and compare its growth particles or stage changes during rain versus clear weather. If you have the config open, you can also enable any debug or logging option the mod provides to confirm rain growth is being applied.
Does rain growth work on crops that aren't fully hydrated?
Rain still counts as moisture for farmland in most setups, but the growth bonus is separate from hydration. If your farmland is dry and the crop is wilting, fix hydration first, then let the rain do its job.
Do I need to be near my farm for rain growth to happen?
Crop growth only ticks in loaded chunks, so if you wander far away the rain bonus won't apply until you return. Keep your farm within your simulation distance or use a chunk loader if you want it growing while you're elsewhere.
Does rain growth work in the Nether or End?
No, because those dimensions don't have rain. The mod keys off actual rain weather, so you'll only see the bonus in dimensions where rain occurs.
