This paper investigates the functional interoperability between the Lilypad of Fertility from the Natura mod and Botany Pots from the Botany Pots (or Botania ) mod within modded Minecraft environments. Players frequently utilize these mods concurrently to automate resource production. This analysis aims to determine if the growth-acceleration Area of Effect (AoE) provided by the Lilypad of Fertility acts upon crops planted within Botany Pots. Through an examination of block entity coding structures, tick-rate mechanics, and gameplay testing, this study concludes that the Lilypad of Fertility does interact with Botany Pots, rendering the combination ineffective for acceleration purposes.
Understanding this interaction is essential for optimizing crop yield in modern Minecraft modpacks like All the Mods (ATM) or SkyFactory. Why Lilypads of Fertility Fail to Boost Botany Pots
Don't waste a Lilypad of Fertility near Botany Pots. Use dedicated Botany Pot upgrades or tile-entity accelerators instead.
Choosing between building a traditional physical farm using Lilypads of Fertility or spamming Hopping Botany Pots depends entirely on your current resource access and your server's performance limits. does lilypad of fertility work with botany pots exclusive
Additionally, some specialized crops may have unique growth requirements that are not covered by a generic growth boost. For instance, the Lilypad of Fertility is known to work on vanilla crops like wheat and carrots, but its interaction with Magical Crops or other mod-specific seeds is entirely dependent on how the modpack creator has configured the "fertilizer" definitions.
Understanding the how and why behind this interaction will unlock significantly faster crop production in your world.
There is no "exclusive" feature flag that turns this compatibility on. However, there are two common sources of confusion: Through an examination of block entity coding structures,
Available upon request (10-trial logs for wheat, carrot, cactus, bamboo).
If your goal is maximum resource production (especially for Mystical Agriculture ), players consistently find that a heavily boosted by Lilypads is significantly faster than a wall of Botany Pots.
If you have the Rats mod, you can place a Rat with the Tick Accelerator upgrade on top of a Botany Pot to increase its speed. we conclude that in standard configurations
The Lilypad of Fertility (from Reliquary ) is a well-known item that accelerates the growth of nearby crops, plants, and saplings when placed on water. Botany Pots offers an alternative, container-based farming system where plants grow inside a block without requiring hydration, light, or vanilla tick mechanics. This paper investigates whether the Lilypad’s area-of-effect (AoE) growth boost applies to plants growing inside Botany Pots. Through functional analysis of growth tick handling, API usage, and empirical testing across multiple Minecraft versions, we conclude that in standard configurations, though edge cases exist with wrappers like BotanyPotsTiers or custom KubeJS scripts.
Instead of the Lilypad, use:
Neither the vanilla Botany Pot nor the upgraded "Exclusive" pots (Iron, Gold, Diamond, Netherite) are affected by the Lilypad of Fertility’s range-based tick acceleration.
This is not native behavior.
