Flourish in FTB Skies 2: Aero

Same as in the FTB Skies 2 1.22.0 guide

Flourish lets you use bonemeal to spread small flowers. It's a port of the Bedrock Edition flower farming mechanic, so if you've grown flower patches on Bedrock, it will feel familiar.^[1]

This pack includes Flourish 21.1.0, the NeoForge build (flourish-neoforge-21.1.0.jar).^[2]

In practice, you bonemeal a small flower instead of hunting for more of them. That's all the sources say about the mod, so there's no need to hunt for extra machines or recipes for it.^[1]

Flourish is a small mod with one job: you use bonemeal to spread small flowers. It is a port of the Bedrock Edition flower farming mechanic.^[1]

There is nothing to craft to get started. Your first step is simply to bonemeal a small flower and watch it spread.^[1]

Unverified The sources here show no recipes that produce this mod's items and no quests that involve it, so this section has no recipe blocks or quest links. If you want to check for yourself, look in the pack's quest book and recipe viewer. This site does hold FTB Skies 2: Aero's own recipes, read from the pack itself: look the item up in the item browser.

Options the mod offers

The mod has a few options that change which flowers bonemeal can spread and how. These descriptions come from the mod's own option text.^[3]

• A torchflower option allows torchflowers to be spread by bonemeal.^[3]
• A wither rose option allows wither roses to be spread by bonemeal. The mod's project page lists this as off by default, which is the mod's default and not necessarily this pack's value.^[1][3]
• A tall flower behavior option replaces the Bedrock Edition behavior with the classic Flora Doubling behavior. Instead of spreading small flowers, bonemeal spawns a small flower item in the world. The project page lists this as off by default, which again is the mod's default.^[1][3]

What the pack changes

The pack ships its own config/flourish.json with every option set to false. That means the extras below are all switched off, and you get the plain Bedrock-style spreading for ordinary small flowers.^[4]

• wither_rose is false in the pack. When it's true, wither roses can be spread with bonemeal. With it off, they can't.^[1][3][4]
• torchflower is false in the pack. When it's true, torchflowers can be spread with bonemeal. With it off, they can't.^[3][4]
• use_tall_flower_behavior is false in the pack. When it's true, the Bedrock spreading is replaced by the classic Flora Doubling behavior: bonemealing a small flower spawns a small flower item in the world instead of spreading the flower.^[1][3][4]

The file also has a version entry, set to 1 in the pack. It's the config format version, so leave it alone.^[4]

Unverified The sources don't describe any machines, multiblocks, power, fluids or automation for this mod, so none are covered here. Its only documented mechanic is bonemeal spreading flowers. Exactly which flowers spread beyond the wither rose and torchflower options isn't stated in the sources.

Same as in the FTB Skies 2 1.22.0 guide

Flourish lets you use bone meal to spread small flowers, a port of the Bedrock Edition flower farming mechanic. The mod has very few settings, and they all live in one file: config/flourish.json. Here is how this pack sets them.^[1]

What the pack sets

• wither_rose is false in this pack. When it is true, wither roses can be spread, so with the pack's value they can't.^[1][4]
• use_tall_flower_behavior is false in this pack. That keeps the Bedrock Edition spreading mechanic. Turning it on swaps that for the older behavior, where bone-mealing a small flower spawns a small flower item, just like it does for tall flowers.^[1][4]
• torchflower is false in this pack's file.^[4]
• version is 1 in this pack's file. The mod's default config file also lists it as 1, so there is nothing to change here.^[1][4]

Flourish has a very short history in this pack. FTB Skies 2: Aero 1.10.0 ships Flourish 21.1.0 (the file flourish-neoforge-21.1.0.jar), and the mod was already in the pack as of Aero 1.0.3 or earlier, so it has been there from the early releases.^[5]

What the mod's changelog says

The only entry in the mod's changelog for 21.1.0 is that it was updated to Minecraft 1.21.1. The mod's author also keeps a fuller changelog on GitHub if you want the details of earlier mod versions.^[6]
