Three tiers of soil-enrichment blocks that passively boost crop growth on top of vanilla's normal tilling and hydration mechanics:
- Enriched Dirt / Enriched Farmland — craft with Dirt + Bone Meal. Works exactly like vanilla dirt: till it, plant on the tilled form only.
- Enriched Sand — craft with Sand + Bone Meal. No tilling needed, boosts whatever bonemealable plant is growing on top (bamboo is the clear example; sugar cane and cactus don't accept bone meal in vanilla, so they're unaffected).
- Super Enriched Dirt / Super Enriched Farmland — craft with Dirt + Bone Meal + Glowstone Dust. Same behavior as Tier 1, stronger boost chance.
Roughly 4x faster growth on Tier 1/2, roughly 11x faster on Super Enriched, for a single well-watered crop.
Requires Fabric API.
