Wheat Grass

If you harvest grass and get something from it (wheat seed or wheat), then if I plant it again and let it grow big is there a chance I can get more from it?

There is no correct answer to this question because it relies on a false assumption. You can’t get wheat from mining grass.

Maybe these wiki pages could help you:
Grass
Wheat Seed
Wheat (plant)
Wheat (item)

Spam placing grass will eventually result in a seed item, just keep placing and picking up and eventually the grass/jungle grass will turn into seeds...

Yes and no. You can get wheat with the farming mod - it overrides the default grass and adds drop chances.

Krock, he just means with minetest_game (I think). So, how to grow plants in minetest_game:
[list=*]
[*]Dig grass for seeds, and junglegrass for cotton seeds. (keep placing them and digging them if you don't get seeds)[/*]
[*]Make a hoe. (two sticks with two "tool" materials abbove it. eg: stone)[/*]
[*]punch dirt or grass which is next to water with the hoe.[/*]
[*]plants the seed, and wait. Be patient, it takes a while to go\row.[/*]

@Krock: You are talking about Minetest NeXt, I was talking about minetest_game.

What TenPlus1 said is correct. This results from the drop probabilities of grass (80% grass, 20% wheat seed; eventually you can turn all grass).

@Krock: DUDE!
Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.
Code: Select all
for i = 1, 5 do   
minetest.override_item("default:grass_"..i, {drop = {
max_items = 1,
items = {
{items = {'farming:seed_wheat'},rarity = 5},
{items = {'default:grass_1'}},
}
}})
end

This is wheat seed, not wheat! -_-'
