Mystical Agriculture lets you grow resources like ores, mob drops, and even experience using specially crafted crops. On the Shadows of Aethro server, it’s one of the most powerful tools for automation and self-sufficiency — especially for colony builders.

This guide covers the basics to get you planting, harvesting, and dominating the economy through farming.

• Craft Inferium Seeds and upgrade them into higher-tier essence crops.
• Grow crops that produce Essence, which can be used to craft materials like diamonds, iron, redstone, etc.
• Upgrade your essence and gear using Infusion Crystals.
• Each crop requires a specific seed, soil level, and tier to grow.
• You can create armor, tools, and augments powered by essence instead of durability.

There are five main tiers of essence used in crafting and upgrading:

• Inferium – Basic starter tier
• Prudentium – Mid-tier
• Intermedium – Advanced
• Superium – High-end
• Supremium – Top tier, used for the best gear

Essence can be upgraded using an Infusion Crystal at a crafting table.

• Kill mobs or break essence crops to obtain Inferium Essence.
• Craft Inferium Seeds with Prosperity Shards and Inferium Essence.
• Plant the seeds on Farmland and let them grow — no water needed.
• Harvest them manually or use automation (e.g., a Farmer block).
• Use harvested essence to craft more seeds, or convert it into higher-tier essence.

Mystical Agriculture lets you grow nearly everything:

• Resource Crops – Iron, Diamond, Coal, Redstone, etc.
• Mob Drops – Bones, Ender Pearls, Slime, Ghast Tears, etc.
• Elemental – Water, Air, Earth, Fire essence for advanced recipes
• Experience Seeds – Grow XP
• Mystical Tool Seeds – For gear crafting
• Nether and End Crops – For Blaze Rods, Chorus Fruit, etc.

Note: Some crops may require special soil like Essence Farmland to grow.

Mystical Agriculture also includes:

• Supremium Armor and Tools – Highly customizable and upgradeable
• Charm Augments – Add effects like Speed, Strength, or Water Breathing
• Paxels – Multi-tools combining pickaxe, axe, and shovel
• No Durability Loss – Gear uses essence to repair itself

Upgrade gear using Augment Slots and Essence Infusion systems.

• Automate crop harvesting early — it’ll save you hours later.
• Focus on crafting tier 3–4 crops for real power boosts.
• Set up a Mob Farm for steady Inferium Essence.
• Don’t waste Supremium on armor unless you’re ready to augment it.
• Use JEI in-game to view exact seed recipes and tier requirements.

With Mystical Agriculture, you don’t mine diamonds — you grow them.
