Plant Types

Experience Plant

• The most basic XP plant! Experience Seeds can be found by breaking Mystical Sprouts across the world or crafting them with wheat seeds and a Bottle O' Enchanting! They have 5 stages.
• Takes about 7 Minutes to grow, and yields about 10 XP per crop.
• One use. Break the crop to gain your XP!

XP Bulb

• An optional progression plant. The XP Bulb can be crafted using Condensed Experience and a Stardrop, along with some Experience Seeds. They have 4 stages.
• Takes about 11 minutes to grow, and yields about 20 XP per crop.
• Infinite use. Right-Click to harvest the plant. Has a small chance to drop XP Jelly. It will then reset its grow cycle.

Amethyst Thorn

• The second progression plant tier. The Amethyst Thorn Bud is crafted using amethyst and an experience seed. They have 3 stages.
• Takes about 10 minutes to grow. They will yield anywhere from 12-24 XP per crop.
• One use. Break the crop to gain your XP!

Sculking Vines

• The third progression tier. The Sculking Vine Pods can be crafted using Sculk, Echo Shards, and an Amethyst bud. Alternatively, breaking Sculking Hyphae and Sculking Weeds can rarely drop Sculking Vine Pods, however they are only found in the Deep Dark. They have 4 stages.
• Takes about 6 minutes to grow. Yields about 20 XP per crop.
• One-Use/Infinite. Break the crop to gain your XP. However, the Sculking Vines can infinitely grow vertically, if left alone. 

Flesh Maw

• A non-required progression tier. The Flesh Maw Seeds can be crafted using Netherwart, Amethyst Thorn Buds, Sculking Vine Pods, and Mystical Fertilizer.
• In order to grow to mature, you must feed the plant raw meat or beetroots. Simply right-click the plant, and it has a chance to grow into the next stage. When mature, it will reach 3 blocks above it, the final block growing fruit. The fruit takes about 7 minutes to replenish. Harvesting it drops 10 XP and a Maw Bladder.
• Infinite Use. Make sure to have at least 3 blocks above the Maw cleared. Right-Click the top-most block to harvest Maw Bladders.

Soul Blossom

•  A non-required progression tier. The Soul Blossom can be crafted using soul sand, XP Bulbs, Sculking Vine Pods, and Mystical Fertilizer.
• Takes about 8 minutes to grow. When mature, releases spores every 4-5 minutes nearby that, when destroyed, drop XP. Each Spore produces 3 XP, and a max of 17 spore can be released at a time, for a total of 51 XP per harvest.
• Infinite/One-Use. The Spore Blossom itself produces spores infinitely, but the spores need to be destroyed for XP. Produces in a 2x3 area around the Spore Blossom.

Chorus Bush

• The fourth progression tier. The Chorus Bush can be crafted with a Sculking Seed Pod, Popped Chorus Fruit, an Eye of Ender, and some Mystical Fertilizer.
• Takes about 8 minutes to grow. Yields about 20 XP per crop.

Dragons Plume

• The final progression tier. The Dragons Plume Seeds can be crafted with Chorus Bush Seeds, Soul Seeds, Ender Pearls, Dragons Breath, and Mystical Fertilizer.
• Takes about 12 minutes to grow. Yields anywhere from 30-60 XP per harvest.
• Infinite Use. Right-Click the flower to produce a plume of spores and XP. The flower is ready to harvest again after about 4 minutes.

Magic Beans

• A rare, non progression plant. They are a rare drop from breaking Mystical Sprouts found around the overworld.
• Takes about 15-20 minutes to grow. Does not yield XP, instead produces a single Magical XP Fruit.
• One Use. Must have at least 8 blocks above the sprout cleared. Grows a beanstalk that, when destroyed, drops a Magical XP Fruit used in crafting recipes. 

Mystical Shears

• Crafting Mystical Shears requires a regular pair of Shears and a Stardrop Fruit. Using these Shears, right-click any XP Plant to turn it into a decorative block. These decorative blocks can be placed anywhere, but they lose the ability to produce XP! Mystical Shears also act as faster shears.
