Just Another Grass Seed guide for FTB Skies 2 1.6.0 to 1.6.1

Just Another Grass Seed adds a single item you'll meet very early: Grass Seed. The pack ships the mod at version 21.1.5, built for NeoForge on Minecraft 1.21.1.^[1][2]

Where it fits in the progression

You run into the mod right at the start. The quest chapter "the_beginning" has a quest, a quest in "?", whose task is to obtain Grass Seed. It unlocks after another quest in the same chapter, so it's an early step rather than a late-game goal.^[2]

The quest has no title in the pack's quest data, so it shows up only by its ID.^[2]

Unverified The sources don't describe how Grass Seed is obtained or crafted, what it does when used, or whether the pack changed any of the mod's defaults. Check the quest in-game to see how it's meant to be obtained. This guide doesn't cover those details.

Unverified The sources show no ATM Star path involvement for this mod.

Just Another Grass Seed adds one item you need to know about early: Grass Seed. In this pack there is no crafting table recipe for it. The recipe dump shows it coming from a sifting recipe, and the pack added that recipe itself.^[3]

Step 1: Get a Mechanical Cloth Mesh

The sifting recipe takes the Mechanical Cloth Mesh (Mechanical Cloth Mesh) together with Dirt. You need the mesh before you can get any Grass Seed this way.^[3]

Step 2: Sift dirt for Grass Seed

Sifting dirt with the Mechanical Cloth Mesh lists Grass Seed among its results. The same recipe also lists other outputs, such as Cabbage Seeds, Rice, Tomato Seeds, Industrial Hemp Seeds and Menril Sapling, plus several vanilla seeds and crops.^[3]

• Mechanical Cloth Mesh
• Dirt

Recipe id: ftb:sifting/minecraft_dirt_with_cloth_mesh

This is the pack's own sifting recipe that lists Grass Seed among its outputs.

Step 3: Check the quest

Once you have the seed, quest a quest in "?" in the the_beginning chapter covers it. Its task is the item Grass Seed. It comes after another quest in the same chapter.^[2]

Just Another Grass Seed is a tiny mod. The only thing the sources here confirm about it in this pack is how you get its one item, Grass Seed. It comes from sifting, using a recipe that the pack itself adds.^[3]

Getting Grass Seed

The recipe is a Create Sifter sifting recipe. Grass Seed is only one of several possible results, alongside other seeds and crops such as rice, tomato seeds, beetroot seeds, melon seeds and sugar cane. The sources do not list drop chances, so how often it shows up is unverified.^[3]

Recipe id: ftb:sifting/minecraft_dirt_with_cloth_mesh

Grass Seed is one of the possible outputs of this pack-added sifting recipe.

Unverified What Grass Seed does once you have it, such as which blocks it affects or how it behaves with automation, is not shown by the sources here. The mod has no config files in the pack and no guidebook or tooltip text was found for it, so the details are not confirmed.

For this mod, the pack's quest book gives you a single step: getting your hands on Grass Seed. The sources here show no further tiers.^[2]

The quest step

The Grass Seed appears in the "the_beginning" quest chapter. Quest a quest in "?" has Grass Seed as its task, and it comes after quest a quest in "?" in the chapter.^[2]

How you get the seed

In this pack, Grass Seed is one of the possible results of a sifting recipe that the pack adds. You sift dirt with a Mechanical Cloth Mesh, and the results also include crop seeds and other farming items. The recipe is below.^[3]

Added by the pack. Grass Seed is one of many possible results of this sifting recipe.

Just Another Grass Seed connects with other mods through recipes the pack adds, and both of them start from plain dirt. There is a Lychee recipe that involves an Ender IO item, and there is a sifting recipe that puts Grass Seed in the same loot pool as crop seeds from several other mods.^[3]

Sifting dirt for Grass Seed

Sifting Dirt with a Mechanical Cloth Mesh is a way to get Grass Seed in this pack. The recipe is added by the pack and uses the Create Sifter sifting recipe type. Grass Seed is just one of many possible results.^[3]

Besides Grass Seed, the sifting results include Cabbage Seeds, Rice Crops, Tomato Seeds, Industrial Hemp Seeds and Menril Sapling. Vanilla items are in the pool too: Wheat Seeds, Melon Seeds, Pumpkin Seeds, Beetroot Seeds, Bamboo, Sugar Cane, Sweet Berries and Cocoa Beans. A dirt-and-mesh sifting setup can feed farms from Farmer's Delight, Immersive Engineering and Integrated Dynamics as well.^[3]

The Lychee recipe with Ender IO

The pack also adds a Lychee recipe of the item-inside type that connects Grass Seed with Grains of Infinity from Ender IO. Here is the exact in-pack recipe.^[3]

Where it shows up in the quest book

The quest book has a quest, a quest in "?", in the chapter "the_beginning". Its task is to obtain Grass Seed, and it comes after another quest in that same chapter.^[2]

Same as in the FTB Skies 2 1.22.0 guide

In this pack, the mod shows up in one quest, and it lives in the "the_beginning" chapter. It's an early-game quest, so you'll run into it near the start of your run.^[4]

The quest is a quest in "?", and it has no title in the pack files. Its task is an item task: you hand in Grass Seed. That's all the quest asks for.^[4]

It comes after the quest with the id 5FCEA8229BB6955C in the same chapter, so you need to finish that one first before this one unlocks.^[4]

Unverified The sources don't say what the previous quest asks for, whether this quest gives a reward, or how you obtain Grass Seed in this pack. Check the in-game quest book for those details.
