About this Mod

About the mod

Ice Prevents Crop Growth is a mod made to make new design features possible without adding blocks. For example a half-grown green melon stem next to your desk, or a short cactus without string above it. When an ice block is placed underneath any block with a crop, the crop will never mature to the next growth stage. This works for both vanilla and modded crops. You can still use bone meal to get to the desired stage.
