Would it not be better to force Random Block Tick Updates instead of using bonemeal? It would allow this to work with Mystical Agriculture so you can twerk yourself some diamonds, or would also work with sugar cane where as at the moment it can not (Because sugar cane doesn't work)

I thought about doing that when first coming up with how to make this mod work however I decided not to for a few reasons.

1. There's not a common way to identify which plants do/don't support growing via random tick updates so by default the mod wouldn't be able to work with many mods out of the box.
2. Usually if bonemeal is ineffective on a plant it's because the developer intentionally disabled its use.
3. Bonemeal is a more guaranteed growth method, less hacky, and has additional effects on things like grass that wouldn't otherwise work on random ticks.

I may think about including an optional section for forcing random ticks on set blocks but it'll almost entirely require pack devs to configure each by hand.

It would be nice because as of right now, it doesn't work on things like Sugar cane, Pumpkins, Melons, and Cactus in vanilla, and mystical agriculture, incase a modpack wanted to make it so that was your way of starting out.
