These are considered Tile Entities . Unlike a crop growing in dirt, the Botany Pot has its own internal timer and logic. It doesn't rely on random game ticks to progress; it calculates its growth based on its own internal code.

This article is designed for players of Minecraft modpacks (such as SkyFactory , StoneBlock , Project Ozone , or All the Mods ) who are using two specific mods: (Lilypad of Fertility) and Botany Pots (or its addon, Botany Pots Exclusive).

Understanding why these two popular mechanics do not work together comes down to how Minecraft handles crop blocks versus container blocks.

While Lilypads of Fertility significantly accelerate crops on standard farmland by increasing random tick speeds in a nearby radius, Botany Pots are self-contained "tile entities" that calculate growth based on internal timers and the specific soil placed inside them. Why They Don't Work Together

Confirmed no interaction in: 1.12.2, 1.16.5, 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.20.1.

Some packs include custom mulches that can increase speed by 2x or 3x. 3. Time in a Bottle (The Universal Fix)

Using Prudentium, Intermedium, Superium, or Insanium Farmland in a Botany Pot drastically increases growth speed. 2. Specialized Mod Interactions (ATM/Modpack Dependent) Some modpacks allow specific items to accelerate pots.

The incompatibility boils down to how each mod handles crop growth.

with tick accelerator upgrades, are effective for speeding up tile entities like pots. For Extreme Speed (Farmland Setup) Lilypad Stacking
