Greenhouses is a BentoBox add-on to power-up your island world! It enables players to build their own biome greenhouses complete with weather, friendly mob spawning, unique plant growth, and even block erosion!
Greenhouses are made out of glass and must contain the blocks found in the Biome Recipe to be valid. There is a recipe GUI. Once built, the greenhouse can be used to grow plants with bonemeal, and it may spawn biome-specific mobs. If you include a hopper with water in it, snow will form inside the greenhouse when it rains. If you put bonemeal in the hopper, biome-specific plants will grow. Some blocks can also transform over time due to "erosion".
## Features
* Craft your own self-contained biome greenhouse on an island (or elsewhere if you like)
* Greenhouses can grow plants that cannot normally be grown, like sunflowers
* Friendly mobs can spawn if your greenhouse is well designed - need slimes? Build a swamp greenhouse!
* Use bonemeal to grow small plants on grass blocks immediately in the greenhouse.
* Or place bonemeal in the hopper to have the greenhouse sprinkle bonemeal automatically. Come back later to see what grows!
* Place a bucket of water (or more) in the hopper to cause snow to fall in cold biomes. Snow will fall when it rains in the world. Each snowfall empties one bucket of water.
* Friendly biome-specific mobs may spawn in your greenhouse - the usual rules apply (be more than 24 blocks away).
## FAQ
* Can I use stained glass? Yes, you can. It's pretty.
* Can I fill my greenhouse full of water? Yes. That's an ocean.
* Will a squid spawn there? Maybe... okay, yes it will if it's a big enough ocean.
* How do I place a door high up in the wall if the wall is all glass? Place it on a hopper.
* How do I place a door on a hopper? Crouch and then place it.
* Can I use metal doors? Yes.
* Can I use a trap door? Yes.
* Can I grow swamp flowers with this? Yes. Make a swamp biome and use bonemeal.
* How much bonemeal is used to grow plants? One per successful plant.
* How much water do I need to put into the hopper to make it snow? One bucket of water (just the water) is used up every time it rains. This only happens in cold biomes.
* Can I build a Nether greenhouse? Try it and see... (Actually, you may need permission)
* Can I build greenhouses in the Nether? Yes. You can colonize the nether with them.
* What kind of mobs spawn in the biomes? It's what you would expect, wolves in Cold Taiga, horses on plains, etc.
