No Bushes :(
by Sorcell
No Bushes :( removes the bush world generation, so biomes that normally place bushes come out without them.
What it does
The mod turns off bush generation during world creation, with no replacement plants added. Its author wanted to stop the texture of the new bush block from looking messy, and chose to remove the feature in favor of building with crafted 2x2 short grass. The change is carried by a data pack, so it applies to a world at the time it is generated. Biomes such as the ones that normally hold Sweet Berry Bushes and Dry Grass lose their bushes as part of that change. Files exist for 1.21.5 – 1.21.11 on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the server platform the data pack targets is the same as the mod itself.
Key features
Bush generation removed
Bushes no longer generate in the world, so terrain shows only the plants the author left in place.
Data pack delivery
The removal runs through a data pack, which is how the change reaches a world.
Crafted short grass
Players can craft 2x2 short grass as a building option in place of the removed bushes.

What the author says
I want to love the new bush block, but the texture feels messy. This datapack removes them from worldgen. For more intentional building, bushes can be crafted in a 2x2 of short grass.\ \ This does not affect Firefly Bushes, Dead Bushes, Sweet Berry Bushes, or Dry Grass.
