Does Create Demiplane come with natural resources?


Rules Questions


So if I cast Create Demiplane (Greater for the sake of argument) do you get to do things like plant trees, grasses, crops. Also what is the ground mad of? Can I put ore veins in the ground? I know Genesis specifically says it can not create life (so that would include vegetation) but do you have to transplant stuff for Demiplane as well?

Also can you cast Create Demiplane on a Genesis plane to add features/ expand it?

Edit: Yes I know about the Bountiful trait but I'm talking about things like hard woods and specific crops. So say I want wheat, barley, and oak trees so I can make charcoal and whisky and sell it.

Well, the bountiful provides enough food for 1 person per 10 foot cube, Greater allows 20 cubes/level (so up to 400 cubes at 20th). As a GM, I'd have no problem with using it to grow specific crops...but, given the small size (less than 1/10th of an acre at 20th level), the likely output of that production would be quite small. You'd be looking at something like 2.5 bushels of barley on the whole plot, which would give you about 120 lbs of barley, which is enough to make roughly 300 litres of mash. That amount would net you 40L (10 gallons) of 80 proof, or 1/4 of a barrel.

As for the trees, at 1/10 of an acre, you're looking at less than 4 oak trees provided you want proper spacing.
