Currently, minecraft:grass doesn't drop any seeds, while minecraft:tall_grass does.
Your way to fast xd
Is the grass block really supposed to drop seeds, though?
Yes, it is supposed to. I tried on 1.13.2 vanilla, it does drop seeds.
Huh. I've never seen it drop seeds before. It's always just given me dirt.
its the grass, and not the dirt variance we're talking about, The grass block will drop dirt, the grass and tall grass should drop seeds
Oh.
Dammit, mojang, stop renaming stuff... >.>
Okay, it's tall_grass and double_tall_grass for me. XD
Ops, I were wrong, I looked at the wrong file
just to clear things up
minecraft:grass_block is the full grass block that transforms to/from dirt. It does not drop seeds.
minecraft:grass is the one-high shrub tall grass. It should drop seeds.
minecraft:tall_grass is the two high double tall grass. It should also drop seeds.
So the issue is the second one, probably due to a patch issue because mojang renamed everything
It's because Forge's seed list isn't populated, as it may be migrated to a better system (e.g. #5497).
This was already reported previously, although discussion has ended up being on #5434 for whatever reason.
In this instance, this would also suggest that tall grass doesn't use any Forge hook currently, which will need addressing.
