The above mentioned treats are one of those. The **Magnifying Glass** is a built-in research tool that lets you discover the specifics of each plant. You'll receive one once you install the data-pack. Among other specifics, each plant is categorized into one of five classes, sometimes called **Modifiers**. The class of a plant tells you its growth rate, the amount of resources it drops, whether it may produce a treat, and whether it's pretentious enough to require a richer soil. How exciting! | Class | Growth Rate | Resources | Pretentious | Treats | | :------: | :---------: | :-------: | :---------: | :----: | | Ingens | 0.5x | 1-4x | ❌ | ✅ | | Defixus | 0.75x | 1-2x | ❌ | ✅ | | Vulgaris | 1.0x | 1x | ❌ | ✅ | | Arrogans | 1.5x | 1-2x | ✅ | ✅ | | Mollis | 2.0x | 1-2x | ✅ | ❌ | # Music Preference 🎶  Have you ever heard the rumors that plants enjoy **music**?

Each upgrade slightly alters some parts of the growth cycle. You may, however, only apply one upgrade at once. Choose wisely! > 👀 **Psst...** > > I've heard the **Advancements** tab might contain some information on how to obtain each and every upgrade. If I were you, I'd take a look! # Automation ⚙️  The growth process may further be automated. Placing a container below a Botanical Pot will cause its drops to be inserted inside of it. Similarly, if empty, an item will be taken from a nearby **Hopper**. > ⚙️ **The recent advances in technology...** > > Aside from the described automation techniques, a certain **upgrade** may automate the process even further.
