Overweight Farming

by Binome

Overweight Farming adds oversized crop variants that vanilla plants can grow into, along with peeling, juicing and composting steps for the harvest.

FabricForgeNeoForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.18 – 1.21.1

What it does

Plants such as beets, carrots, potatoes and the bean family may turn into Overweight Crops, and breaking one returns more produce than a regular crop. During the Moonlight phase the chance rises. Nether wart can also grow into an overweight variant, and overweight apples can appear on big oak trees.

Crops are handled with an axe, which peels them. Peeled melons can be emptied of seeds with a right-click, and a bottle used on a peeled melon yields juice. Peels can be given to pigs or used as compost. Overweight potatoes baked on a heat source become poisonous. Overweight crops can also be placed in pots.

Installation needs the Fabric, Forge or NeoForge loader for the matching build. Files cover game versions 1.18 – 1.21.1 with 11 release versions, and the code is covered by All rights reserved, so the project is not open source.

Key features

  1. Overweight crop growth

    Beets, carrots, potatoes and beans can grow into Overweight Crops, with a higher yield when broken.

  2. Peeling with an axe

    Overweight crops are peeled with an axe, and peeled melons can be emptied of seeds by right-clicking.

  3. Juice from melons

    A peeled melon struck with an empty bottle can be turned into a drink, which is a separate harvest product.

  4. Pots and compost

    Overweight crops can be planted in pots, and peels serve as compost or pig feed.
