Free, open source. Only needs Fabric API.

A stepped display in a superflat world holding every item and block in the mod: both crops at every growth stage along the bottom, raw materials, the kitchen, the smoking gear and machines, the outfit, and a hemp-brick wall with the six paintings at the top.

Grow your own

Two strains, two very different plants.

A long bed of farmland with Purple Kush growing from seedling to ripe on the left and Lemon Haze on the right, the seeds, buds, leaves and stems displayed on the shelf above.
Plate 02 Seedling to harvest. Purple Kush left, Lemon Haze right.

Purple Kush

Short and leafy, two blocks tall. Grows wild in jungles, swamps and lush caves.

Lemon Haze

Three blocks tall, slower, wants headroom. Pays out in stems. Grows wild from savanna to badlands.

  • Trim it. Shear a growing plant twice and the harvest leans toward buds. Or don't, it grows anyway.
  • Find it. Seeds drop from tall grass and turn up in chests. Wild plants are rare, shear one up for a flower pot.
  • Farm life. Bees pollinate it. Chickens and parrots eat the seeds. Goats go for the leaves.

Pack a bowl

The device decides how long. The buds decide how hard.

  • Spliff

    Roll it, smoke it, gone.

  • Wooden pipe

    Pack it again and again. Takes enchantments, repairs on an anvil.

  • Bong

    Bigger bowl, up to three buds. It bubbles.

Purple Kush

  • Resistance
  • Mining Fatigue
  • Munchies

Lemon Haze

  • Speed
  • Haste
  • Weakness
  • Munchies

More buds, stronger high, bigger downside. Buffs stop at level II like a beacon, so a third bud makes it last longer instead.

Greening out is real. Go big and you might lose the hit and spend a while nauseous instead. At three buds it also wipes every buff you had and benches you for a minute. A single bud never does that.

The kitchen

Real cannabutter, made the long way. Edibles are the endgame, not a day-one snack.

A cozy wooden kitchen: the Decarboxylator, a water cauldron and the Infuser line the counter under framed buds and milk buckets, a farmer villager stands by, and a space cake sits on the table with cookies and brownies around it.
Plate 03 Oven, rinse, infuse. The farmer is just watching.

  1. Decarboxylator

    A hemp-brick oven with three trays.

  2. Cauldron

    Rinse it. Optional, but it makes better butter.

  3. Infuser

    Pour in milk, light a fire under it, wait.

  4. Cannabutter

    Strength and quality both count. Patience pays.

Top-down view of a kitchen table with a space cake, a brownie, a space cookie and cannabutter toast.
Plate 04 Dinner is served.
  • Space Cookie
  • Space Brownie
  • Space Cake
  • Cannabutter Toast
  • Dawamesk
  • Bucket of Bhang

One batch of butter makes eight cookies or a single dawamesk. Guess which one hits harder.

Edibles take thirty seconds to three minutes to kick in. Eating a second one because the first "isn't working" is a mistake the game will let you make.

And food that won't get you high

  • Toasted Hemp Seeds
  • Hemp Seed Bar
  • Hemp Milk
  • Siemieniotka

Hemp milk works anywhere cow's milk does, Infuser and cake included. You never need to find a cow.

Build with it

Hemp was a fiber crop long before it was a vibe. Everything here is fireproof, like Crimson and Warped wood.

Two small hemp-plank houses flank a row of building blocks, hempcrete, bricks, planks, wool and bales, under a hemp-brick wall hung with the mod's paintings.
Plate 05 The building sets, with the paintings up top.

  • Hempcrete

    The powder sets in water, like concrete.

  • Hemp bricks

    Full set of stairs, slabs and walls.

  • Hemp planks

    Doors, trapdoors, fences, signs, boats. The works.

  • Canvas & wool

    Stands in for leather and wool. Beds and books without a sheep or a cow.

  • Beanie
  • Shirt
  • Harem pants
  • Flip-flops

The full hemp outfit. It is not good armor. It does take trims.

The rest of the stash

  • Painting: Snoop
  • Painting: Hendrix
  • Painting: Pineapple Express
  • Painting: Rihanna
  • Painting: Brownie Mary
  • Painting: B. Rappaz

Six paintings, for the walls of your grow house.

  • 24 advancements

    A real tree that teaches the mod, with a few jokes hidden in it. One is named after a Paris club where Baudelaire ate dawamesk.

  • Two music discs

    Original tracks by Nefuß. Creepers drop them. Listen below.

  • JEI & REI pages

    Every machine and both cauldron steps show up in your recipe viewer.

For server owners and pack makers
  • config/hempdustry.json can switch off every drug effect ("industrial hemp only"), green-outs, nausea and loot, or speed up crops and machines. /hempdustry reload applies it.
  • Strains are a datapack registry. Edit the shipped two or add your own, then /reload.
  • Both machines run on datapack recipes, so KubeJS and CraftTweaker can rebalance them.
  • The Infuser's spout pours into chests, hoppers and anything with Fabric storage, AE2 included. A dispenser can feed it milk.
  • An API with four events (smoke, eat, infuse, and a veto) for addon makers.
  • Install it on both client and server.

Coming in 2.1

Built and in testing. No release date, it's ready when it's ready.

Two wooden shelves lined with glass bongs in every stained-glass color.
Glass bongs All sixteen colors, plus tinted. They stand on tables now.
A player on a dock by the sea holding a bong up to their face, mid-draw.
Hold to rip Hold the button and it bubbles and fills with smoke.
An indoor grow room: rows of flowering plants in grow pots either side of a stone aisle, LED lamps hanging from copper chains.
Grow room Grow pots, LED lamps, hydro trays. Twice a field's pace.
A sandstone workshop with the Sifting Box, the Hemp Press over a heat source, and pressed hash bars on the counter.
Hash Sift kief, wash bubble hash, press it hot.
Four colored glass bongs standing on a table at the end of a jetty at dusk, lanterns on either side.
Sunset session Set one down anywhere.

  • Rosin & moon rocks

    The top of the extraction bench. No BHO, not happening.

  • Charas

    Shear a ripe plant and sometimes get hand-rubbed resin. The plant lives.

  • Redstone Vaporizer

    A gentle level I buzz that never greens you out.

  • Beldía

    A Moroccan landrace that grows on sand by water. Smoke it and you turn invisible.

  • Stressed plants

    Bad light shows on the plant and turns buds into schwag. Don't smoke the schwag.

  • And more

    A hemp-leaf banner pattern, creepers that wander toward your fields, 42 advancements.

After that

  • Warped Kush. A Nether strain. Striders eat the seeds, piglins want the buds.
  • Ruderalis. The wild ancestor. Sniffers dig it up.
  • Industrial Hemp. A tall fiber crop with no buds, and Ditchweed, its wild cousin.
  • Crimson. A second Nether strain that grows down from the ceiling.
  • NeoForge. A port, once 2.1 is out.
  • Someday. Custom High and Munchies effects with tolerance, a hemprepreneur villager, a pillager dealer's hideout.

The other weed mods

Hempdustry 2 isn't the only cannabis mod for Minecraft Java. Here's the rest of the field as of October 2026, so you can pick the one that fits.

  • Hempdustry 2. Fabric, 1.21.11 and 1.21.1, open source (AGPL-3.0). Two strains you grow, a spliff, pipe and bong, a full cannabutter kitchen with six edibles, fireproof hemp building sets, an outfit, 24 advancements, 12 languages. Built to feel like Mojang shipped it.
  • Nirvana. Fabric, NeoForge and Forge, 1.21.1 and 1.20.1. A lighter, vanilla-feeling hemp add-on: rolled herbs, pipes, salves, Reefer creepers. Plays nicely with Supplementaries.
  • HempFarmer. Forge, from 1.12.2 up to 26.1, open source (GPL-3.0). Hemp, indica and sativa joints that cure status effects, cannabis tea, a grinder, a battery and a transmutation wand.
  • Weeder Continued. NeoForge, 1.21.1 and 1.21.8. A port of cesca's Weeder: tray crafting, edibles, bongs and pipes you can place, dealer NPCs.
  • Hemp-Craft. Fabric and NeoForge, 1.21.1. NotTyzo's take on the original GanjaCraft, story below.

If you want the deepest one, where growing, smoking, cooking and building are all one loop that fits vanilla, that's this one (I'm biased, but I counted). On Forge or 1.20.1 today? Nirvana or HempFarmer. Version 2.1 adds hash, rosin, glass bongs, grow rooms and a third strain.

Who's behind this and the wacky story of the mod

I go by Warlon Mhite. I've been playing Minecraft since beta 1.7.4, got into modding thanks to Pipix (if memory serves), and started tinkering with game files as a kid thanks to Minecraft texture packs, long before I touched any actual code.

During the COVID pandemic, bored and admittedly a bit of a stoner myself, I noticed there wasn't a decent cannabis mod for any recent Minecraft version. MCreator made that gap easy to fill. I put together a rough but working Forge mod called GanjaCraft. It picked up a small and genuinely enthusiastic crowd.

After that, I teamed up with a school friend on Brewevolution, a beer and tavern RP mod that did a lot better than GanjaCraft ever did, partly thanks to bstylia14's video showcasing it at 4:20 (I don't think that's a coincidence). That's also where MCreator's limits started showing. Around the same time my life got busy in ways that had nothing to do with Minecraft, and both mods went quiet for a while.

Somewhere in there, NotTyzo rewrote GanjaCraft for its Reforged Network server. He picked up the cannabis-mod idea and rewrote it properly in Java, starting for 1.16 and quickly bringing it up to speed with newer versions like 1.18, all with my permission, and even worked with me on some details. Around that time the mod got banned from CurseForge for having "ganja" in the name. It thus got renamed to Hempdustry, and shortly after became Hemp-Craft, which is still maintained under various mod loaders.

In 2025 I started my own from-scratch rewrite for Fabric 1.21, mostly to relearn real Java modding, and after another long gap decided to actually finish it properly. Hempdustry 2 is that mod: the name is a small nod to the version that came after mine and didn't make it.

While Hemp-Craft and Hempdustry 2 share some mechanics and textures, the two mods are completely different projects now. Hemp-Craft is not published under a Free Software license. NotTyzo worked hard on reimplementing all my ideas without MCreator, and had my authorization to use the textures and initial CurseForge page and branding. During my rewrite of Hempdustry 2, I changed multiple things, reworking some mechanics and adding new ones to make the mod more complete and more aligned with real-world usage and science. But of course, this is still a Minecraft mod, so it's nowhere near realistic.

Come hang out

The Discord from the GanjaCraft days never closed. It's quiet, but it's the easiest place to report a bug, suggest a feature, or tell me the Lemon Haze grow time is too slow.

FAQ

  • Forge or Fabric?

    Fabric, on Minecraft 1.21.11. A 1.21.1 build is still around if your pack lives there. A NeoForge port is planned after 2.1.

  • Do I need any other mods for this to work?

    Just Fabric API, on both client and server. JEI or REI are optional and get their own recipe pages. It's built to not fight with the usual kitchen-sink modpacks.

  • Is it stable?

    Yes, since 2.0.2. A world made with any version of Hempdustry 2 opens on every later one, with nothing for you to do. It builds, loads on a dedicated server without a warning, and its data all validates. Bug reports are still welcome.

  • Is there a weed mod for Bedrock, Forge or older versions?

    Hempdustry 2 is Java Edition only, on Fabric 1.21.11 and 1.21.1. No Bedrock or Pocket Edition. The old Forge builds for 1.16.5 and 1.18 are still on the CurseForge page, but they're a different mod from this one. For Forge today, see the other weed mods.

  • Can I have the hemp without the weed?

    Yes. Set effects.enabled to false in config/hempdustry.json and nothing gets anyone high. The farming, building and food all stay.

  • What happened to GanjaCraft?

    Same mod, new name. Platforms weren't fond of "ganja" in a listing title, so this rewrite ships as Hempdustry 2. The old GanjaCraft still exists as a historical footnote, not a separate project.

  • Can I use this in my modpack?

    Yes, monetized packs included, as long as the launcher downloads it. Mirroring, modifying and forking are fine too, with credit, non-commercially. Only a commercial use needs to ask. CREDITS.md has the details.
