A multi-loader (Fabric + NeoForge) Minecraft mod that lets you farm Blaze Rods. Built with Architectury for Minecraft 1.21.1.
Heavily based on Ender Crop by DrManganese (GPL-3.0), reworked to grow Blaze Rods on tilled netherrack instead of Ender Pearls on tilled end stone. Check out Ender Crop: Regrown (by me) for an updated version.
The Crop
The blaze crop has 8 growth stages. Harvesting it at any stage drops Blaze Seeds; at the 8th stage it drops 1–2 Blaze Rods and sometimes an extra seed.A fully grown crop can also be harvested by right-clicking it (configurable via rightClickHarvest): the produce drops and the crop is replanted in place, leaving one seed behind.
Blaze crops only grow on tilled netherrack — not farmland.
- Follows vanilla Minecraft growth rules at half the rate of wheat, i.e. roughly double the base growth time (configurable via
tilledNetherMultiplier). - Grows at any light level.
- 1 in 50 chance to spawn a Blaze on harvest (configurable).
The Seeds
Blaze seeds can be crafted by surrounding any seed with 4 Blaze Rods: R
RSR
R
R = Blaze Rod, S = any seed.
Tilled Netherrack (configurable)
To obtain tilled netherrack, right-click regular netherrack with a hoe that has been enchanted with Unbreaking I (configurable) or a hoe-like tool (AIOT, Kama, Scythe).Tilled netherrack is kept moist by nearby lava (within 4 blocks) — water and rain have no effect. Dry tilled netherrack with nothing planted on it reverts to netherrack.
Mod Compatibility
- Jade / WTHIT — shows growth-blocked / light-level / tillability hints.
- The One Probe (NeoForge) — same HUD info.
- Botany Pots — blaze seeds grow in pots only on tilled netherrack (place netherrack in a pot and till it); the pot grow time is doubled.
