Can't plant saplings on humus

[gimmedat]

I have tried in my SMP world and I just tried in a brand new install on SSP to confirm it. The forestry mod appears to have an ID problem in the modpack and it causes humus to not allow saplings to be planted on it. This makes all tree farms unusable. Any fixes?

You can't plant sapplings on hummus yourself, but the arboretum doesn't care about that and plants them anyway!

This is part of the mod and isn't broken/bugged.

Ok thanks I did not realize that, last I played was on 1.2.5 and this was possible.

Ok there is a problem it seems with rubber saplings. After the arboretum plants them and retrieves them in the logger they get a new id 626:1 instead of just 626. This new id seems to mess it up and the arboretum refuses to plant them although it will plant other saplings just fine.

Yeah, there is some voodoo magic going on with the sapplings when the arboritum plants them. But you should only be given 626:1 sapplings if you break the sapplings before they grow. If they grow the leaves of the rubber tree should drop normal 626 sapplings.

I can confirm this as a valid problem. Does anyone know of any fix? I looked through the configs quickly but didn't see anything.
