Farming Highlighter

by HazzarzMC

Farming Highlighter marks fully grown crops with a red glow, so players can see which fields are ready from a distance.

What it does

Crops such as wheat, carrots, potatoes and beetroot receive a red outline the moment they finish growing. The outline is a red particle square drawn around each ripe crop within reach, and it disappears when the crop is harvested or replanted. Players walking past a field can tell at a glance which plants are ready without inspecting each one.

The mod is a lightweight server-side addition for NeoForge 26.2. Only the server needs it installed, so vanilla clients can join and see the outlines without installing anything. The outlines refresh continuously as crops grow, so the highlights stay accurate while a field is being tended.

Files are published for NeoForge only, for 26.2, with 1.0.0 as the latest file from 2026-07-17. The license is the MIT License, and the project is not open source. It was first published on 2026-07-17 and last updated on the same day.
