The Growable Ores Mod is exactly how it sounds. It grows ores for you
all but eliminating mining for them. If managed properly you may never
need to dig for your rarities again.
It may be a bit costly at first to use this mod but its results are
incredibly beneficial. You’ll need to craft growing blocks that the ores
will need to actually grow on. They won’t grow on dirt so these blocks
are crucial.
Then create your farm as you would. The ores grow in reed form and
are crafted using reeds in conjunction with its respective ore. They
also don’t need water so that cuts down on the required resources.
There are different ways to acquire the ores once you’ve harvested
the reeds. Ores like Coal, iron, gold, diamond and emerald need to be
placed in a large square to get a single ingot. This is most likely a
way to limit the amount of yield you receive due to rarity. Ores like
Lapis, obsidian and quartz need to be placed in a compact square. And
ores like redstone, glowstone and clay can simply be placed alone to get
a single ingot out.
This is a great alternative to standard mining in the game. If you’re
not much of a fan of mining then this mod seems like a better option
than simply turning on creative mode. It still requires you to work for
your materials and won’t cheapen the experience if you still want to
maintain a survival world.
