👋 Welcome to the Realistic Plant Growth Plugin

Realistic Plant Growth is a powerful Spigot/Paper plugin that brings a new level of realism to the Minecraft flora, allowing you to fine-tune growth parameters on a per-biome basis.

• Do you want to stop Nether Wart farming or make it only work in the Nether like it used to be?
• Do you think Melon farms are too powerful and want to balance them?
• Maybe you want cocoa to grow only in jungles or make plants grow slower in deserts?
• Or perhaps you want farms to be above ground and need natural light?

You can do all that with Realistic Plant Growth!

Realistic Plant Growth actively monitors grow events, allowing plants to progress through their growth stages based on a configured growth rate.
What sets this plugin apart is its biome-dependent growth rate, providing an immersive experience tailored to the in-game environment.
