Hello and sorry for my bad english . I'm making a custom crop for Minecraft 1.5.1 and it works perfectly but my problem is: the seeds breaks into many seeds once planted and broken, even before the plant has grown. Thank you very much

 

Here is my cropBlock class:

Solved! I put this in the "quantityDropped" section on my custom crop block and now it works correctly:

 

 

 

 /**
     * Returns the quantity of items to drop on block destruction.
     */
    public int quantityDropped(int metadata, Random par1Random)
    {
    	switch (metadata) {
        case 0:
            return 1;
        case 7:
            return 5;
        default: // Error case!
            return -1; // no item
        }
    }
