Metal Crops - Grow Your Metals
This unique farming modification allows you to cultivate metal crops directly on your farm. It introduces plants for all types of metals from both vanilla Minecraft and popular MMD Metal mods.
Getting Started
Your adventure begins by searching for Metallic Ore, which can be found at depths between 0 and 96 blocks. You'll need to smelt the discovered ore in a furnace to obtain Metallic Ingots.
For working with metallic crops, you'll require a special set of Metallic tools. You can craft a Metallic Hoe from ingots, then use it by right-clicking on dirt blocks to create Metallic Farmland. These specialized blocks are where your metal crops will grow.
The seeds themselves are created on a crafting table by arranging Metallic Ingots in specific patterns.
