How to Farm Industrial Hemp and Forage Druidcraft Plants

Growing Hemp and Gathering String

Industrial hemp allows you to produce utility items without needing mob drops.

1. Plant industrial hemp seeds on prepared farmland.

2. Allow the hemp crop to grow upward until it reaches its full height of two blocks.

3. Harvest the top growth to collect hemp fibers and string.

4. Open a crafting grid and use the harvested string to craft leads directly, completely bypassing the need for slimeballs.

Foraging Berries and Elder Trees

Explore surface biomes to forage wild crops and trees for unique food recipes:

1. Craft a sickle to clear tall grass in wide sweeps. Sickles clear large patches quickly and can also serve as decent weapons.

2. Search plains and forest biomes for wild blueberries. Unlike sweet berry bushes, wild blueberries do not prick you when walked through.

3. Locate elder trees in the landscape. These trees naturally progress through cycles: bare branches, flowering stages, and finally berry clusters that drop once fully ripe.

4. Combine your harvested ingredients at a crafting table to bake blueberry muffins, cook apple-elderberry crumble, or brew elderflower cordial.
