Flax is a family of crop items added by Supplementaries. It consists of Flax Seeds, the Flax harvest item, Wild Flax (a plant that generates naturally on the overworld surface), and the Flax Bale storage block. Flax is grown like Wheat, crafted into bales, and traded to farmers and wandering traders. The flax feature can be disabled in the mod's configuration.

Obtaining

Growing flax

Flax Seeds can be planted on Farmland and in flower boxes. A planted flax plant has eight growth stages (age 0 to 7). It grows through random ticks only when the block has a light level of 9 or higher, following the usual crop growth formula. From age 4 onward the plant grows a second, upper half, making it two blocks tall. The upper half cannot exist without the lower half, and right-clicking the upper half activates the lower half.

Bone meal advances flax growth. Bees that pollinate the plant also advance it by one stage. Farmer villagers can plant flax seeds from their inventory, because the seeds are listed in the vanilla villager-plantable seeds tag.

Harvesting a plant depends on its age:

• A fully grown plant (age 7) drops one Flax and Flax Seeds.
• A plant at any earlier age drops only Flax Seeds.
• Fortune adds extra Flax Seeds to either case. The bonus is a binomial roll with two extra attempts at a 57% chance each.

Wild Flax

Wild Flax generates on the overworld surface. It is placed in one chunk out of seven, between Y 29 and Y 120, and only where water touches its base. It can appear in any overworld biome, including the horror biomes that Fear Nightfall weights more heavily. Other blocks cannot replace Wild Flax while it stands.

Breaking Wild Flax with shears, or with a tool carrying Silk Touch, gives the Wild Flax block itself. Any other break gives Flax Seeds, with a Fortune bonus. Bone meal on Wild Flax succeeds 80% of the time and places a new Wild Flax in a nearby empty position. The spread stops once there are ten Wild Flax blocks within the 9 by 3 by 9 area around the target.

Trading

Trader	Level	Cost	Result	Max uses
Farmer	3	Flax Seeds ×22	Emerald ×1	16
Wandering Trader	1	Emerald ×6	Flax Seeds ×1	8

Farmer villagers at level 3 (Journeyman) sell one Emerald for 22 Flax Seeds, with up to 16 trades. Wandering traders sell one Flax Seeds for 6 emeralds, with up to 8 trades. Both offers depend on the flax feature being enabled.

Usage

Flax Bale

Nine Flax form one Flax Bale, and a Flax Bale can be crafted back into nine Flax. The block has a hardness of 0.5 and a blast resistance of 0.5, and it is best broken with a hoe. It is flammable and has an 85% compost value. When placed, it is oriented to the clicked face.

The Flax Bale reduces fall damage. A player who lands on it takes 20% of the normal fall damage.

Straw

When a fully grown lower-half Flax plant (age 7) is harvested with a straw harvester tool from Farmer's Delight, it drops one Straw in addition to its normal drops. A global loot modifier adds this drop, and it requires Farmer's Delight to be installed.

Compost

Flax has a 65% compost value, Flax Seeds 30%, and Flax Bale 85%. These values are used when the items are put into a composter; see Rich Soil and Organic Compost for the compost chain.
