Dynamic Trees The Aether FAQ

Find a naturally generated Skyroot Tree in the Aether and break its trunk or leaves to collect Skyroot Seeds and Skyroot Pine Cones. Plant a seed on Aether grass and let it grow into a Dynamic Tree, then harvest its wood and drops like you would any other tree.

Dynamic Trees grow gradually over time rather than instantly, so a planted seed or sapling will slowly expand its trunk and canopy instead of popping up in one tick. Make sure it has enough light, suitable soil, and open space around it, since blocked space or the wrong ground will stall growth.

Grow a Skyroot Tree from a Skyroot Seed or Skyroot Pine Cone on Aether grass, then chop the trunk once it has matured. The Dynamic Trees system lets you right-click or break the base to fell the tree and collect Skyroot Logs.

Plant a Golden Oak Acorn or Crystal Skyroot Seed on valid Aether soil and let the tree mature before harvesting. Golden Oak and Crystal Trees grow like other Dynamic Aether trees, so give them room and time to develop their trunks.

Cones, catkins, and seeds are the planting items for their respective Dynamic Aether trees. Plant them on the correct soil type and wait for the tree to grow, then harvest wood, saplings, and any special drops the tree produces.

Use the matching cap or seed item, such as a Jellyshroom Cap, Cloudcap Cap, or Lightcap Cap, and plant it on suitable ground in the Aether. These mushroom-style trees grow like other Dynamic Trees and can be harvested for their caps and wood once mature.

Blightwillow and Blighted Skyroot are corrupted tree types that spread or behave differently from normal trees, so isolate them from your other plantings. Harvest or contain them carefully, and avoid letting them spread into areas where you want healthy Dynamic Aether trees.

Plant the corresponding seed or item, such as Roseroot Seeds, an Aerfin Seed, or a Conberry Seed, on valid Aether soil. Each tree has its own preferred ground and growth space, so check the block it came from and give it room to mature.

It is designed to integrate with the Aether and Dynamic Trees ecosystems, so it generally works alongside other Aether content, but conflicts can occur if another mod also overrides the same tree blocks or world generation. If trees look wrong or fail to grow, check for overlapping tree or biome mods.

Dynamic Trees tracks growing trees over time, so large numbers of actively growing trees can add some load, especially on servers. Limiting how many trees you plant at once and avoiding huge dense forests of growing trees usually keeps performance smooth.
