Squat Grow in All the Mods 10: To the Sky

Squat Grow is a small, fun utility mod: instead of reaching for bone meal, you crouch (squat, or twerk if you prefer) next to a plant and it grows. The project describes the effect as making your plants grow twice as fast. It works on crops, trees and anything else that's growable.^[1]

This pack includes version 21.1.4+mc1.21.1 of the NeoForge build.^[2]

How you use it

There's nothing to craft and nothing to set up. Stand near the plant and tap your sneak key repeatedly until it has grown as far as you want.^[1]

What you can configure

• Effect range, up to 16 blocks.^[1]
• Effect chance.^[1]
• A whitelist or blacklist of the blocks that can be affected. You can list plants by registry name or by tag.^[1]
• OPMode: you only hold shift and every valid block in range is affected. The author says this started as an accident and was later turned into a config option.^[1]

Who it's for

It suits anyone who wants a hands-on, no-cost way to speed up farming, whether that's a few crops, a sapling or a whole patch within range. The OPMode option can speed things up a lot, so check your settings before you rely on it.^[1]

Unverified The sources I was given don't show this mod's values in the pack's config (range, chance, lists, OPMode), so I can't say whether the pack changes any defaults. They also don't show any quests involving the mod, or a place for it on the ATM Star path.

Squat Grow is different from most mods you'll meet in this pack: there's nothing to craft before you can use it. You don't build a machine or make a special tool. You just crouch near a plant.^[1]

Step by step

1. Plant something growable, such as a crop or a tree sapling. The mod's description says it works on crops, trees and anything else that's growable.^[1]
2. Stand near the plant and press your sneak key repeatedly. Each crouch can help the plant grow, so keep tapping until you're happy with how far along it is.^[1]
3. Repeat for every plant you want to speed up, and skip the bone meal. The mod describes itself as a replacement for it.^[1]

What you can tweak

The mod has several options, which the pack may change. You can set the effect range (up to 16 blocks) and the effect chance. You can also choose which plants are affected, by registry name or by tag, and use either a whitelist or a blacklist.^[1]

There is also an optional OPMode. When it's enabled, you only need to hold shift and every valid block in range is affected. The author says this started as an accident and was then made a config option.^[1]

Unverified The pack's actual config values for Squat Grow (effect range, effect chance, whitelist or blacklist contents, and whether OPMode is on) could not be confirmed from the available sources. No crafting recipes or quests for this mod were found either, so there are no items to make first.

Squat Grow is a very simple mod. There are no machines, multiblocks, power or fluids to set up. You crouch (squat, or twerk if you prefer) near a plant, and the plant grows. The project page says plants grow twice as fast with the mod, so you can leave the bonemeal at home.^[1]

How you use it

Press your sneak key repeatedly until the plant has grown as much as you want. It works on crops, trees and anything else that's growable.^[1]

What the mod can be configured to do

According to the mod's project page, these are the options it offers. They describe the mod in general, not necessarily the values this pack uses.^[1]

• Effect range: you can change how far from you the effect reaches, up to 16 blocks.^[1]
• Effect chance: you can change how likely each affected plant is to grow.^[1]
• Whitelist or blacklist: you can limit which blocks are affected, either by the plant's registry name or by tags.^[1]
• OPMode: if it is enabled, you only need to hold shift and all valid blocks in range are affected. The author says this started as an accident and was kept as a config option.^[1]

Unverified The pack's actual range, chance, whitelist or blacklist and OPMode settings could not be confirmed from the available sources, so the defaults and limits above should not be treated as this pack's values. The pack's own recipes and quests for this mod are also unconfirmed.

• 21.1.1: Added a key binding to enable or disable the squat to grow functionality. It defaults to U, and you can change it in the controls menu.^[3]
