And here is an example of a configuration for a particular crop:

  #--------------------------

    BEETROOT_BLOCK:
     inherit: crop
     persistent_growth_period: 3
     biomes:
      PLAINS: 1.0
      forest: 0.75
      SKY: 0.5
      cold: 0.25
      hot_dry: 0.25
      mountain: 0.25
      mushroom: 0.25

3 for persistent growth period means 3 hours. Which means it converts to:

Beetroot Block:

• Plains: 3h

• Forest: 4h

• Sky: 6h

• Cold, Hot/Dry, Mountain, Mushroom: 12h

Discuss Pros & Cons of which ones to settle in, etc.
