About Module:
This is the grass growth module for the Expanded Growth mod series. This module adds a method for growing grass in climates/regions that cannot grow grass naturally (deserts/gravel regions for example), along with allow you to grow back tall grass in areas that you cleared out!

 

How To Guide (Also in the handbook in game, just search NDL or NDL-ExpandedGrowth!):

Adds:
     - Grass Seeds

To Use:
     - Dirt to Grass
          - Craft your grass seeds, 3 seeds and 2 bonemeal in a plus pattern (view in handbook)
               - right click on a "dirt/soil" block and it will convert a 5x5 area of dirt (any fertility) into its grassy varient

     - Tall Grass
          - Craft Grass Seeds (see above or handbook)
               - right click on GRASSY soil and tall grass will populate randomly in a 5x5 area on grassy soil blocks

 

Planned Workings:
     - None at the moment

 

Feedback/Suggestions/Support:

This is exactly what I was looking for, bless you.

I can have grass grow inside my desert fort!
