MineColonies: Jade crops addon
by alexkond12
MineColonies: Jade crops addon adds Jade tooltip support for MineColonies crops, showing growth progress directly in the tooltip when a player looks at a crop.
What it does
Jade reads the block under the crosshair and shows its details in a tooltip. This addon extends that tooltip for MineColonies crops, so a player can see how far a crop has grown and whether it has reached maturity without opening any other screen. Crop detection is automatic, and no crop needs to be registered by hand.
The tooltip uses the same clean, vanilla-style look as Jade's built-in crop tooltips. Its display can be turned on or off in the Jade settings, and the addon is lightweight and optimized, with multilingual text. It is open source under the MIT License and runs on the client alone.
Installation needs Jade and MineColonies to be present on NeoForge for 1.21.1. Files are published for NeoForge only, and the latest file, 1.1.1300, was released on 2026-05-08, the same day as the first publication.
Key features
Crop growth percentage
The tooltip shows the growth percentage of a MineColonies crop as it develops toward harvest.
Mature crop indicator
A crop that has reached maturity is marked in the tooltip, so a player can see when to harvest it.
Automatic crop detection
MineColonies crops are recognized without manual setup, and their progress is read from the block itself.
Tooltip toggle
The crop tooltip module can be enabled or disabled directly in the Jade settings.

Use cases
Checking colony fields
A colony builder can walk a field and read each crop's progress from the tooltip instead of checking them one at a time.
Planning harvests
Players managing MineColonies farms can see which crops are mature and which still need time.
Who it’s for: Players who run MineColonies colonies and already use Jade. The addon is for the client; servers do not need it.
How it compares
Jade Trades is also an open source MIT Licensed addon for NeoForge 1.21.1 and runs on the client alone, but it adds trade information rather than crop progress. Better With Minecolonies is an open source MIT Licensed mod for Forge and NeoForge across 1.14.4 – 1.21.1 and is client and server, so it changes the server as well as the client. Figura Jade Name is client-side only for NeoForge 1.21.1, but it is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
