DatapacksJava
Saplings to Dead Bushes
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
A simple datapack creating a recipe to make Dead Bushes renewable by smelting Saplings. Any item in the #minecraft:saplings tag can be smelted into a minecraft:dead_bush item, granting 0.1 Experience.
