I'm still early in the pack, but I'm fairly sure that grass won't spread to cracked sand. You need to do one or more layers of dirt to get them grassy.

This is intended behavior by Vazkii, the dev of Botania. It's also stated in the lexica and NEI as a number on the rune you are looking to create.
I manually replace cracked sand with dirt in the various downtimes. I also like the idea that 'normal terrain' is spreading out from my base.
It would be awesome if that was an automatic thing
In the beginning it has to be done manually. Later, there's an item in Botania that covers everything with dirt.
Will this new mod generate terrain to smoothly transition pre-existing chunks or will we be likely to get jagged terrain differences, if it doesn't require a full restart?
Not sure why you are trying to get fertilizer but if its for humus then you can make compost with dirt and wheat to make humus.
Thanks for this, I now know how to get slimes spawns without search the area for slime chunks. I have slime balls from a quest.
Ok I got stuck. Ive been making my seeds and have got to exp seeds. To make the seeds you need bottle o enchanting. The mob essences need a strong infusion stone, to make the stone you need exp essence but I dont have the seeds to make the essence. What am I missing?
I believe you are supposed to melt essence berries, found underground, into molten exp in a crucible furnace, which is then bottled into Bottle o' Enchanting
Thanks, it doesnt really seem to fit with the rest of the seeds. Its dependent on actually finding essence berries without an actual quest that sends you off in search of them. Then when you have the bushes its not obvious that you smelt the berries into the bottles. I have liquid exp feeding my anvil but didnt connect it to Bottle o' Enchanting.
Any of the soul essences will work, I believe, but skeleton is the ones you should have on hand at this stage.
Just FYI, you can fish them up, but they are uncommon to rare, or you can go diving. There are lots in underwater chests which tend to spawn in kelp forests.
Yep, and pretty easy to spot once you have scuba gear too. Since chests are slightly smaller than a block in size they create a blue water disturbance around themselves. Water hives and chests look a lot alike from a distance though.
I found my first with just a snorkel. They have things like paper, books, book & quill, bottle o'enchanting, wither skulls, and more. Nothing wildly exciting so far, but mostly useful stuff. They are not rare.
