Potato Roots

Potatoes in this mod are not just a harvest. Some turn into living plants: they ripen through four stages with visible eyes as a warning before they attack. Water potatoes start chain reactions, and a giant tuber called Kartofan grows larger each time it eats a nearby giant potato, exploding with a pork bonus drop after the tenth. A stealth potion makes the living plants hide in vines, and it only has to be used once, because the effects unfold over time on their own. Breaking a living potato drops potatoes as normal, with a small chance of Potato Root, which is needed for crafting. Silk Touch turns the block into a decorative trophy instead.

The Vine Cloak is a worn item with zero armor and no protection. Its hood follows the wearer's head, gives off a dim glow and scatters leaf particles while the wearer sprints. Crouching transforms the wearer into a pile of leaves. Right-clicking a ripe crop harvests it instantly and replants it automatically, and a harvest enchantment widens that area to a cross shape or a 3×3 square. Librarians sell the enchantment book, and Master Farmers are the only villagers who buy giant potatoes.

Potato Roots requires Geckolib, and the mod is published for Fabric only, with a single release, version 0.1.0, built for 1.21.1 and dated 2026-07-20. Client and server both need it, so players and the server each install it. The stealth features of the cloak can be configured separately on the server.
