Oh, I just have a few* 256x GeoStrata TileEntity accelerators.

What the hell are those? I've never heard of them?

Also, I'm looking for ways to boost Magical Crops growth. The AM2 Sigil of Nature's Bounty does not appear to work (which is surprising since it works on Ender Lilies). Neither does the Thaumcraft Lamp of Growth. Do Lilypads of Fertility work here? Any other methods?

Lamps of growth totally work on magical crops. Are you sure you have them in range and fed with essentia?

And yes lilypads of hilarity work brilliantly.

Tile accelerators increase the tick rate of adjacent blocks, so instead of speeding up the growth rate of plants they effectively just speed up time. Cool toys :)

I haven't used a clock to measure the time, so it's possible I was mistaken about the effect of the lamps. It just seemed to not make a difference. Of couse I had them supplied with essentia. I'll check with multiple lamps.

Lamps don't speed up time the Tile Accelerators do... But lamps DO work on magical crops very well

Have you tried the Tree of Time from Twilight Forest?

Haven't played through Twilight Forest yet. Too many other things to do. What do they do?

You explore leaf dungeons to find a Tree of Time sapling.
When planted will grow into a Tree of Time.
The Tree of Time is a tile accelerator - an area probably 20 blocks in radius around the tree, will get extra random ticks causing things, like crops, to grow faster.

Will green grove sigil buffs apply if bound into the bound armor, and put on an armor stand? *slow, evil grin spreads across face*

Phew, those GeoStrata Tile Accelerators are expensive. How do you get the crystal shards? Do you have to do something with those cave crystals?
