How to Obtain and Plant Dynamic Tree Seeds

Obtaining Tree Seeds

Dynamic tree seeds replace standard vanilla saplings as the primary way to establish new trees. You can obtain them in two ways:

• Crafting: Combine a vanilla sapling with a dirt bucket in any crafting grid to create a seed of that species. You can also craft the seed back into a standard vanilla sapling using the same dirt bucket recipe.
• Natural Drops: Collect loose seeds dropped randomly by mature trees as they grow in the world.

Planting and Establishing Trees

Once you have a seed, you can plant it to start a new tree:

• Manual Planting: Plant the seed directly on dirt, grass, or podzol. Ensure the block has an unobstructed view of the sky, as dynamic trees require sunlight and will halt their growth in darkness.
• Natural Spreading: You do not have to plant every seed yourself. Any dropped seed that lands on open dirt, grass, or podzol beneath a clear sky can automatically plant itself, allowing forests to spread naturally over time.
