Squat Grow Mod FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I start using Squat Grow Mod?
Place a sapling or plant a seed as normal, then stand near it and press Shift (the sneak key) repeatedly. Each press acts like applying bone meal, accelerating growth without needing the actual item.
What's the default range for squatting to affect plants?
The default activation range is 16 blocks around you. You can increase this in the mod's configuration settings if you want to affect plants from farther away.
Does this work with crops from other mods?
Yes—the mod has built-in support for Applied Energistics 2 Crystals and Mystical Agriculture Crops. You can also add support for other mod plants through configuration settings.
Can I disable growth for certain plants?
Yes, the mod includes whitelist and blacklist options in the config file, allowing you to customize exactly which plants can be affected by squatting.
How do I convert dirt to grass blocks?
Hold a grass block in your hand while standing on or near dirt blocks, then the dirt will convert to grass as you move around.
Is there a chance the squat won't work every time?
Yes, each squat has an activation chance that can be adjusted in the configuration. By default it's fairly reliable, but you can tweak this setting to make it more or less consistent.
Will this mod cause lag on large farms?
The mod is designed to be lightweight, but activating growth on many plants at once in a large area may have minor performance impact depending on your system and other mods.
Do I need bone meal at all anymore?
No—squatting replaces the need for bone meal as your primary growth method, making farming much faster and easier.
Can I adjust how fast plants grow with this mod?
Yes, you can configure growth multipliers and activation chances in the mod's settings to fine-tune how quickly plants progress through their growth stages.
Does this mod work in multiplayer?
Yes, each player can squat near plants independently to accelerate growth, making it suitable for multiplayer servers and worlds.
