Hempdustry has its own advancement tab, and it is the mod's progression guide: follow it and you will meet every part of the mod in a sensible order. This page draws the whole tree, explains every advancement you can see, and teases the four you cannot. No spoilers.

On this page: How the tab works · The tree · The plant · Trimming · Smoking · Building and growing indoors · The kitchen · Cloth and extraction · Hidden advancements

How the tab works

  • The tab opens when you pick up your first hemp seed, which earns its root, High Hopes. Until then there is no Hempdustry tab, just as vanilla's tabs wait for their first advancement.
  • It reveals itself as you go. Like every tab in Minecraft, it shows what you have earned plus the advancements up to two steps below each one you have earned. The rest stays out of sight until you get closer, which is why this page exists.
  • 42 advancements in all (43 on Minecraft 26.2 and 26.3, which add The Munchies): 35 tasks, 2 goals (Activation Energy and Top Shelf, with rounded frames), 1 challenge (Around the World in 80 Grams, with a spiked frame), and 4 hidden ones.
  • Seventeen of the visible ones are new in 2.1, marked below. Anything you earned on 2.0.x stays earned.
  • The layout may shuffle a little between one start of the game and the next: Minecraft arranges sibling advancements in no fixed order. Nothing is lost when it does.

In the tables below, What to do is the description exactly as the game shows it; the Tip says how it is really earned where that differs, and how to get there.

The plant

The root and the advancements hanging straight from it: finding, growing and tasting the plant.

Advancement What to do Frame Tip
High Hopes Plant a different kind of seed and see where it grows task Earned the moment any hemp seed is in your inventory; planting it is up to you. Seeds come from tall grass, chests and wild plants (Finding Hemp).
Purple Kush Harvest Purple Kush Buds from a short, leafy plant task Any Purple Kush Buds in your inventory count. Wild plants grow in plains, jungles, swamps and lush caves.
Lemon Haze Harvest Lemon Haze Buds from one that needs the headroom task Leave two clear blocks above the seed: it grows three tall. Wild in savannas, sunflower plains and badlands.
Kif Country (new in 2.1) Harvest Beldía Buds from a plant watered in sand task A wild plant counts: they grow already ripe along desert rivers and shores. Planted, Beldía wants sand with water within four blocks.
Hemp Hearts Eat a food made from Hemp Seeds task Toasted Hemp Seeds (seeds in a furnace, smoker or campfire) is the quickest; the Hemp Seed Bar and Siemieniotka count too. Hemp milk does not: it is drunk, not eaten.
Feather Pretty Polly Tame a Parrot with hemp seeds task Parrots take hemp seeds just as they take wheat seeds. Keep feeding one until the hearts show.
Down to Seeds and Stems (new in 2.1) Get your hands on some Schwag, a bud gone to seed task Stressed plants spoil their buds into Schwag, and even a healthy ripe plant gives one now and then. Shipwreck supply chests carry a little. (Growing Hemp)

Trimming

Working the plant with shears while it grows, and what the leaves are good for.

Advancement What to do Frame Tip
Shears Trim Season Shear a growing hemp plant for a Hemp Leaf task First window: the plant's last stage at one block tall. Second: after it shoots up to two blocks, before it is ripe. Shearing a ripe plant does not count.
Perfect Cut Harvest a plant you sheared in both of its trim windows task Trim it in both windows, then let it ripen before you break it: breaking it early does not count.
Sticky Fingers (new in 2.1) Shear a ripe plant until it gives up Charas task Each ripe plant can be rubbed once: one time in four it gives Charas, one in eight if it grew under any lamp or was stressed. Work along a row.
Well Done (new in 2.1) Scorch Hemp in a Furnace task Smelt a Hemp Leaf, a bud or Schwag. The spent bud a Redstone Vaporizer hands back counts too.

More: Growing Hemp, Hash and Concentrates.

Smoking

Advancement What to do Frame Tip
First Contact Take your first hit, whatever you smoke it in task A bud over a sheet of Paper rolls a Spliff; hold it and right-click. Any device, any strain.
Cookie The Munchies (Minecraft 26.2 and 26.3 only) Eat while high and too hungry to sprint task Hunger comes with every smokeable. Eat anything while you are under it and your food bar is at 6 or less, the point where you can no longer sprint. Any Hunger counts, rotten flesh's too.
Pipe Dream Pack a Wooden Pipe and take a hit from it task A plank over three sticks. Pack it in the crafting grid with a bud in its own slot.
Bong Voyage Take a hit from a packed Bong task Any of the eighteen bongs counts: clear, tinted or stained. Hold right-click; the hit lands when the draw is done.
Anvil Burnout Smoke a Wooden Pipe or a Bong down to its last hit task The hit that wears it out is the one that counts, and the device breaks with it. A Wooden Pipe lasts eight hits, a Bong twenty-four. The Vaporizer does not count.
Vapor Trail (new in 2.1) Take a hit from a Redstone Vaporizer task Iron, redstone and hemp planks. One bud a bowl, and it can never green you out.

More: Smoking, Smoking Gear.

Building and growing indoors

Hemprepreneurs opens the half of the tree that turns hemp into things. Hemp Builder is its hub: indoor growing on one side, the kitchen on the other.

Advancement What to do Frame Tip
Hemprepreneurs Harvest your first Hemp Stem task Break any ripe plant. Lemon Haze gives the most stems, twice what Purple Kush gives; Beldía gives few.
Hemp Builder Craft your first Hemp Brick task Four stems make two Hempcrete; four Hempcrete make a Hemp Brick.
Pothead (new in 2.1) Place a Grow Pot task Five Hemp Bricks around a block of dirt.
Sea of Green (new in 2.1) Harvest a plant from a Hydro Tray task Any ripe plant broken in a tray counts, running or not. The tray is a Grow Pot with four copper ingots and a redstone dust.
Midnight Sun (new in 2.1) Harvest a plant grown under a Grow Lamp task Light the lamp before the seed takes its first growth step and keep it lit to the end: the plant remembers. Hang it one to three blocks above the grown plant; it covers the 3×3 below. Works over farmland too.
Top Shelf (new in 2.1) Harvest a fully trimmed plant grown under a Grow Lamp in a Hydro Tray goal Both trims, the lamp from start to finish, and a tray that never runs dry or stops pumping while the plant flowers: a stressed plant no longer counts as lamp-grown.

More: Building Blocks, Indoor Growing.

The kitchen

From the Decarboxylator to the edibles. Activation Energy is the mod's big build.

Advancement What to do Frame Tip
Activation Energy Build a Decarboxylator out of seven Blocks of Hemp Bricks goal Seven Blocks of Hemp Bricks and a copper ingot: some five hundred stems. Earned as soon as the oven is in your inventory.
Got Bhang? Drink Bhang task No Infuser needed: two plain Decarboxylated Hemp (rinsed hemp will not do), a milk bucket (hemp milk works) and sugar, in the crafting grid.
Rinse Cycle Rinse Decarboxylated Hemp in a water cauldron task Right-click a water cauldron with Decarboxylated Hemp. Optional for butter, but it decides how good the butter can get.
Butter Late Than Never Simmer your first Cannabutter in an Infuser task Pour a bucket of milk into the Infuser, add Decarboxylated Hemp, and light a campfire underneath.
Give It an Hour Eat an edible, and wait task Earned on the first bite, no waiting: any Cannabutter Toast, Space Cookie, Space Brownie, Dawamesk or Bucket of Bhang counts. A slice of Space Cake does not, because the cake is eaten off the block.
Club des Hashischins Eat Dawamesk task Cannabutter, sugar, a honey bottle and sweet berries: a whole batch of butter in a single piece, the strongest edible there is.

More: Cannabutter, Edibles.

Cloth and extraction

Green Threads starts the cloth chain, and the Sifting Box hangs from it because it needs canvas. Everything below It's Not Pollen is the hash bench.

Advancement What to do Frame Tip
Green Threads Turn a Hemp Stem into Hemp Fiber task A stem in the crafting grid makes four fibre; ret it in a water cauldron first and it makes six.
The Chill Set Collect a full set of hemp armor task All four pieces in your inventory count. Worn together, they halve your odds of coughing and of nausea.
It's Not Pollen (new in 2.1) Sift Kief in a Sifting Box task Fill it like a composter: seven buds (four of Beldía) or about forty-seven Hemp Leaves give nine Kief.
Hot Off the Press (new in 2.1) Press Kief into Hashish task The Hemp Press, with heat underneath, presses Kief into Hashish one piece at a time. The advancement comes with the Hashish Bar: craft nine pieces into one.
Cloud Nine (new in 2.1) Cut a Hashish Bar into pieces task Set the bar down and right-click it with a sword, or a modded knife. Shears will not do.
One Small Step (new in 2.1) Craft a Moon Rock task A bud, a Rosin and a coat (Hashish, Kief, Filtered Hashish, Bubble Hash, Filtered Kief or Charas), in any arrangement.
Double Zero (new in 2.1) Obtain Filtered Hashish task Press Bubble Hash, or press Kief you have sifted a second time (Filtered Kief).
Under Pressure (new in 2.1) Press Filtered Hashish into Rosin task One more turn of the press. A single Rosin fills a whole bong bowl.
See You Ice-O-Later (new in 2.1) Fill a Sifting Box with water, jacket it in ice and wash the trichomes out into Bubble Hash task Any ice counts: plain, packed or blue, on all four sides. Plain ice melts in bright light, so build it in the dark.
Compass Around the World in 80 Grams (new in 2.1) Obtain Charas, Hashish, Filtered Hashish, Bubble Hash and Rosin challenge The five need not be in your inventory at the same time. Charas, rubbed off ripe plants, is the slow one.

More: Hemp Materials, Hemp Outfit, Hash and Concentrates.

Hidden advancements

Four advancements stay hidden until you earn them. A hidden advancement does not appear in the tab at all, not even as a grey outline or a question mark, until the moment you earn it; then it takes its place in the tree with the usual toast. They are the jokes of the tree, and each one is earned by something a Hempdustry player is likely to do sooner or later. If you would rather find them yourself, stop reading here. If you want a nudge:

A matter of timing

Every smoker knows the number. Minecraft has clocks. Be holding something lit when the two agree.

Breakfast of champions

How you start your day says a lot about you. Some people reach for the coffee.

For perfectionists in the kitchen

Every batch of butter gets a report card. Bring one home with nothing but top marks.

Bargain hunters

Cheap weed has a reputation. There is only one way to find out whether it is deserved.
