A simple mod to prevent netherwart (and now a variety of other crops) from being broken unless they're fully grown. If you want to break it anyways, crouching will disable the feature. This will not affect creative mode (unless you want it to, see the configuration screen), only survival. It should be usable on most survival SMPs, but contact the owners first to be sure.
Note
This mod requires YACL and the Fabric API, and it is highly reccomended to install Mod Menu as it provides access to the configuration screen to enable and disable certain features.
