Minecraft has a lot of blocks, but what if they had more? Why do we need them? Please don't just add lists of things - these will be marked as spam and removed! Also, no furniture, guns, or vertical/"sideways"/"upright"/"standing" slabs (yes, we see you).

Poisonous Potato usage: as a seed

Poisonous Potato usage: as a seed

Poisonous potatoes are used as seeds for planting potato crops.
In order to prevent the player from turning the poisonous potatoes into ordinary potatoes by planting and immediately harvesting, the growth of potato crops needs to be adjusted as follows: when harvesting the immature potato crops, drop one poisonous potato instead of one ordinary potato.

In real world, poisonous potatoes are potatoes that have sprouted (or are about to germinate). Such potatoes contain toxins and are therefore inedible, but can still be used as seeds (it is still alive).

As a result of these changes, poisonous potatoes become more useful in the game, while also bringing the game closer to the real world.

    It should be possible to germinate ordinary potatoes in sunlight so that they become poisonous.
    Planting pre-sprouted potatoes increases the yield by about a quarter.
