- After installing compatible add-on mods, you can also plant specific resources from those mods.
Obtaining Embryo Shards
- Hold the corresponding material and right-click a Classic Stonecutter to extract the shards. A single embryo shard of the matching type will drop upon success.

Planting and Harvesting
Mod crops require a specific type of "farmland" to grow— vanilla dirt farmland won’t work! Crops must be planted on dedicated farmland.
Embryo shards can be used to accelerate the growth of corresponding crops.
Once crops are fully grown, you can harvest them by either breaking the plants directly or right-clicking on them.

Reactor Core
- The Reactor Core is a powerful functional block that enables automation of crop cultivation in this mod.

Cross-Mod Expansion
Starting from version 3.0.0, the Croparium mod adopts a modular design. The base mod does not include any cross-mod crops—it needs to be used with corresponding expansion mods (this mod serves as a dependency).
Players can install the corresponding expansion mods as needed, with the main Croparium mod serving as the required dependency.
Some expansion mods:
Croparium: Confluence Overworld
Croparium: Composite Materials
Biomes O' Plenty Legacy Reborn & Croparium
More cross-mod content is still in development. If you have creative suggestions to share or encounter issues while using the mod, feel free to open an issue on GitHub.
