Suggestions

I tried the mod out a bit, here is some things i'd like to suggest

1. Make the crop breeding a addon and optional. It really messes up logistics when you setup a zombie mob grinder and carrot variants drop. It also is a pain when making a basic farm using you mod, and it fills up with like 30 variants of the same crop when all you wanted was a basic carrot farm.
2. Add compatibility with modded soil and farmland. I tried to use insanium farmland and it refused to recognize it as farmland.
3. Add compatibility to mutate crops from other mods. Having the ability to make occultism seeds, or magebloom enhanced would be nice. Granted MA seed would be nice as well, and would make in world farms more viable over hydrobeds.
4. Allow slabs to be part of the frame. This is so we can put water in the frame, freeing up more space for crops. This also lets setups utilize the lilypad of fertility and other such things.
5. Add a in world highlight for the missing block in the contraption. I spent like 30 minutes trying to build 1 when first checking out the mod just to realize the issue was i needed to go in a different direction with the frame.

Thanks for your feedback. For number one it's already optional to have traits on vanilla crops, there's a config you can change to turn it off.
2. I'll take a look at why MA farmland is not working, it's probably something missing a tag.
3. I would leave it to modpacks to add mutation recipes for other modded crops as adding them by default could easily mess up the balance of other mods.
4. Good idea, I'll add them to the wall blocks tag
5. This one is a bit more challenging, the error message should tell you where it goes wrong but I know it's not very detailed. There are ponders to show you how to build it, did you view those?

for number one you misunderstand, i meant optional in the sense of even if the config is on, its just not forced on various crops for no reason. As it makes players not want to use the mod for a farm, since you are forced to fully max out your crops if you don't want 30 crop variants clogging you storage. By making the mutations occur when a module is installed it makes it usable as a basic farm, but if you want a crop with a certain gene setup its not a pain to mutate it too it. I mention it because i am playing ATM10 to the sky, and the option is enabled and while personally i would love to setup a basic crop farm with it, i REALLY don't want to mess with mutations and the storage situations needed if i dont fully mutate my carrots, potatoes or other crops.

3. Perhaps a default off config option than for a generic blank coverage with a warning about lack of balance? For those who are not modpack makers.

4. there are ponders? i did not see any in the pack i am playing

unless something in the pack messes it up, there's ponders on the controller block

For number one, do you mean for all the crop drops to not have NBT on them at all? I've been wanting to find a good solution to the growing pains when making top tier crops besides funneling everything into a composter until you get full traits. I think it's a great idea to have traits stripped when having an upgrade in the controller and should be really easy to implement as well.

yea no nbt data, as just from my zombie farm along i have like 3 different variants of both carrots and potatoes.

For the module you mean like with the module installed all crops get nbt removed? As i was thinking the opposite, with it installed thats when the crops get NBT.

For the countless crops variants to be solved you could have 2 machines.

1. Mutation Cleanser ~ like you suggested all it does is wipe the NBT to be a vanilla crop.
2. Mutation Sync ~ Late game block that will sync the mutations of a host crop to crops of the same type. So if you for example get a perfect carrot, any carrots you have either with no nbt or mixed nbt, you can channel through this and it will make it a perfect carrot. This means that you still have to mutate for a perfect carrot, but once you got a perfect carrot if you saved previous mutations you can catch them up, or if you cleaned them you can make a batch from unmutated carrots.
