Usage

The different forms of compost can be used in different ways.

  • Wet and dry compost can be placed to create muck-heaps for RRP or as a physical storage of compost for use when needed.
  • Wet and dry compost is also an efficient way to condense manure for compact storage.
  • Compost Blocks cannot be placed but can be used thein samedecoration asof bonemealbarns, toa growsatisfying grass/flowersmuddy-toned orblock cropsthat (2looks blocksgood =in fully grown)paths
  • Compost is an inventory item so cannot be placed butbonemeal can be used the same as normal minecraft bonemeal.bonemeal
