About

The planter box is a decorative block that can be dynamically expanded by placing more planter boxes next to each other.

Expansion

Planter boxes of different types won't connect. Planter boxes need to share the same wood type to expand.

Sapling Behavior

When a sapling grows into a tree the planter box underneath will not be converted to dirt.

Farming

Planter boxes that are made from overworld wood allow overworld plants to thrive in them! Nether wood planter boxes, on the other hand, only support nether plants. These plants will grow in the planter box the same way that they would if they were planted on wet farmland or soul soil.

The following plants can be grown in overworld planter boxes:

The following plants can be grown in nether planter boxes:

Any plants added to the tags listed in the tags section are also supported.
