Make sure you "know how" for this particular pack.
In Regrowth for example, you just need one mature parent plant, and a double cropstick next to it to breed or improve stats. In Agrarian Skies, you need two (or four?) mature parent plants, and a double cropstick between them. It's been too long since I played Beehappy, so can't remember exactly. Try both.
I know I was able to breed crops to 10/10/10 - are you making sure that your 'parent plants' are fully grown before putting up the cross-crops? Also, I think this may have been a pack with the two-parent requirement. No 'snaking', like you could in Regrowth. Oh, and mind the weeds. I remember there were weeds.
Ooooh, thanks to both of you! I tried it and it is definitely 2 mature plants and a double cropstick between. No wonder I couldn't make it work, I was trying Regrowth's snaking method. Heh. Thanks for the warning about weeds. I didn't have to deal with weeds in Regrowth.
What mod are the cropsticks from? Depending on which MC version you're playing in, different mods added cropsticks. Mods in different versions added cropsticks that work in different ways. I've had cropsticks from different mods before and it can get confusing if you're expecting a particular mod's cropsticks but it's actually from another mod.

Oooh. Agricraft, according to NEI. I'm on FTB/MC 1.7.10 for this pack. Thanks for the warning about the multiple methods in different versions, I shall keep that in mind!
It's Agricraft and its associated crop-sticks. That, I remember well.
Yep, the NEI says Agricraft cropsticks.
Thank you all for helping!
Anyone have any ideas about crossbreeding those vanilla flowers? Or - oh. Do they have to be in cropsticks, too?
