Grass Thoughts

Well, seeing as how Red plans to add seeds & grass blocks I've been thinking about people's strong desire to not have grass grow back. I say that it should in that bit of Minecraft style. It should grow back, but more in weeds and such forcing you to weed them out to replace with grass seeds. It should also be biome specific, whatever that may mean to weeds and growth rate.

For those worried about having their dirt paths grown back on may want to suggest a spray bottle to kill plants from spawning. Basically have a spray bottle object, fill it with whatever fruit+vegi liquid you can, then spray the cleared grass from it. With that, the grass should stay clear of both grass & weeds. Even those tall grasses & biome-specific plants...Or so I'm suggestion. If you want the grass to grow then spray water then plant the grass seed and watch it gradually grow......

1) Grass should grow back, weeds should grow with higher chance, and biome specific rates for both.
2) Having a spray bottle to spray fruits & veggie mix (or some other more appropriate mix) to keep the grass from growing at all. A one-time use. To clear just spray water.....

Maybe this is too much, or too simple. I'm simply trying to suggestion that would please everybody, thus me recommending this...I really do want to see grass reclaiming disturbed areas but people keep stressing that they don't want their pathways to disappear. I'm simply hoping what I suggested made sense and that it's a nice middle-ground to work with.

I guess that's the way to go in the end, by simply scything the tall grass to gain seeds & to just replant when it's done. That's how it's done, so I guess that's how it'll be. Then you still have the issue of weeds so I guess that spray idea still stays. I do hope people won't mind dirt paths weeding up so you can scythe them up for the seeds in your second posting. That idea of yours should work

The ACNL & Minecrafter gardener in me does actually want to see Dandelions, Clovers, Heather, Daisies, and all sorts of foreign weed flower-plants in this world. Even weeds have beautiful flowers that I'd love to plant them around. Some are insanely tiny though....Having those grow on dirt areas should be fun, even in normal grassy areas.

This also making me wonder if invasive species plants should be added also...I believe one is 'Hog Weed' that should harm all living entities as it does in the real world. Anything that I see along the Ottawa (Canada) bike-paths I'm considering to be 'grass'.
