Super Seeds
Super Seeds lets you seed different plants using chests.
Simply put your different crops in the chest and place a redstone torch under it. Everytimes the redstone torch turns on, seeds in the chest will be distributed on land around the chest that meets requirements and is empty.
It can automatically plant:
- Wheat
- Carrots
- Potatoes
- Sugar Canes
- Cactus
- Nether Warts
- Melon
- Pumpkins
- It respects the fact that cactus need one block space between them.
- It respects the fact that sugar canes grow on sand with water beside it.
- It respects the fact nether wart can only grow on soul sand.
- It respects the fact crops, carrot, potatoes can only be seeded on farmland
- It can create patterns of different plants on your grounds. Put 8 crops, then 8 potatoes, then 8 carrots, then 8 crops in your chest, and run it, you'll get 4 lines of different plants...
Howto
The image is self explanatory, but to explain it shortly:
- Place a redstone torch under a chest
- Place farmland, sand or soulsand (or the three of them same time), depending on what you want to seed, around the chest.
- Place your seeds in the chest.
- Toggle the redstone torch off/on
- Taadaaaaa!

Q: Is this plugin dangerous?
A: Bud, it's running on my server, it did not yet destroy anything and it surely won't. But of course, I cannot be held responsible if it damages any area on your server.
Configurations
Commands
Thanks to Metrics, I can see that a very few servers are still running on Java 6. Be aware that allow/deny commands use Java 7 String switches, that were not supported on Java 6...
What is to come?
- Plugin will use water buckets in chests to wet land if set so : v.1.8.0

does it work in 1.18.1?
I just added this plugin to my server and it works great. Running spigot-1.7.2-R0.3-SNAPSHOT.
i still use it and im runing 1.7.2...
as an alternative you could take http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/theplanter/
It seems like the plugin does not work anymore on minecraft's 1.64 onwards :/

Dude, based on metrics: http://metrics.griefcraft.com/plugin/SuperSeeds
Over 63% of the servers are running Linux. And it seems that you're the only one having issues on it.
Without any proper bug report, I mean you're just saying "It's not working", I'm not able to help you.
As I said, be sure to run Java 7 at least, as I'm using String switch statements that were not implemented in earlier versions of Java
hi there, me again.
i just wanna say it's not linux-compatible.
greetings
@dela09
After tests, it still works on latest dev build #2700, meaning with bukkit 1.5.1
update?
@oliver276
Double chests are already working since the begining.
Order of crops in the chests designs the way crops are planted as well
Maybe make the chest double and whatever order they are in in the double chest then that's what they are as crops. I think this would be simpler
@Kuk1ight
heeemmm, how to say that.... There are 4 videos showing it in the description......
could you add a video of how to use it?
Glad you like it. Thank to you for your nice comment. Don't hesitate to throw any ideas for this plugin.
This plugin is Awesome! Thank you!
Ok thanks!
Mmmh.... This plugin was specifically made for upcoming Minecraft 1.5 redstone update, which make train carts pickup items and make it possible for them to deposit items in chests. So auto farm are still water farms. But I can add an option, off by default :)
@psychokiller1888
No the chest with a sign on the first row has [collect] <farm item> will collect the seeds when they're done growing! Except for cactus/sugar-cane
So wheat is done growing, it will automatically harvest it, then replace with the chest containing seeds :D
@TwekerPMC
Well, I might add configs per chest beside defautl configs, so that might give you the oportunity to configure your chests to till only your wanted area. Hoes are already supported since 1.5.0
Water buckets, yes, why not
The sign, I did not really get your idea. You want a sign automatically added that says what the chest is seeding?
Can you add a few features to this plugin? I would like these:
- Putting a WOOD-STONE-IRON-GOLD-DIAMOND hoe into the chest would automatically hoe the land, but only in a configurable area.
- Putting a chest in the middle of the farm (side,etc..) with water buckets would make the dirt dark(wet)
- Putting a chest next the the farm land with a sign saying:
[collectfarm] <farm item> ( seeds, pumpkin, etc...)
Thanks!
With 1.5.0 coming out, I think I went through what I was waiting for with this plugin. If any ideas, feel free to let me know and I'll judge if adding goes with the way I thought for this plugin.
Edit
Maybe adding a hoe in the chest could allow the plugin to tile the earth around before seeding it...
