Fei's Planter Boxes
by Feintha
Fei's Planter Boxes lets players fill planter boxes with flowers, crops and Nether Wart, and turn dirt or grass into farmland planters.
What it does
Players place flowers, plants and crops inside the planter box blocks, and Nether Wart is accepted as well. Cacti are the only plant that cannot be placed inside a block, and they keep their vanilla behavior. Hoeing a base of dirt or grass produces a farmland planter, and crops can be put on the farmland variants.
A planter box can be placed in a row by crouching and right-clicking, which places it without edges. The mod also offers a more compact way to make planter boxes, using spruce trapdoors. A planter box can be named with a sign, and the name item must be prepared on an anvil. Signs, banners and names all work on planter boxes, and the naming does not apply otherwise.
The mod is a Fabric build for 1.20.4 only, released under the MIT License and open source. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. The source code is public. Nothing else is required beyond Fabric.
