Frequently Asked Questions
How do you craft an Empty Bonsai in Aetheric Roots?
Combine 5 Nether Quartz and 1 Amethyst Shard in a crafting grid to create an Empty Bonsai pot.
How do you make Ether Candles to fuel a Bonsai?
Smelt Ether Leaves in a Furnace into Ether Sap, compress 9 Ether Sap into an Ether Wax Ball, and craft that Ether Wax Ball with String.
Why did my mature Bonsai explode in Aetheric Roots?
Leaving a Bonsai sitting at maximum growth for too long triggers an explosion unless you prune it back with Shears, slow it with a nearby Mangrove Bonsai, or preserve it with wax as a Frozen Bonsai.
Can Bonsai pots be automated with Hoppers?
Yes, a Hopper placed above a Bonsai inserts Ether Candles, while a Hopper underneath pulls out harvested items.
Which saplings help with farming and base defense?
Oak fertilizes nearby crops and Spruce pulls dropped items together, while Cherry strikes monsters with lightning, Jungle spreads damaging Thorned Vines, and Acacia knocks enemies back.
