How Keep My Soil Tilled Mod Works

Keeping Farmland Tilled Under Melon and Pumpkin Stems

Melon and pumpkin stems grow on farmland, and harvesting the fruit can leave the soil beneath the stem turned back to dirt. Keep My Soil Tilled Mod addresses this directly: when a melon or pumpkin stem is harvested, the mod checks the nearby blocks and automatically re-tills any dirt beneath the harvested crop.

This means the farmland stays farmland instead of degrading, so you do not have to run around replanting or re-hoeing the ground after every harvest. The mod is purely a convenience mechanic — it does not add new items or change how stems grow, it simply restores the tilled state that would otherwise be lost.

It is especially handy for large melon or pumpkin farms and for redstone-powered harvesters, where manually fixing soil after each cycle would be tedious. Fields stay neat and productive with no extra effort from the player.
