Maybe if trees are being improved, apples could be too? I never liked how the only way to get apples was a rare drop from oaks, when they're not even that good (unless you're making them into golden apples). Apples in Minecraft, unlike real world apples, seem to be a parasitic species living on the oak tree. If Improved Trees is added to vanilla and trees are made of branches, you could get apple tree branches and graft them onto an oak tree in a place where an apple would grow. This would make it an apple oak, which grows apples just like the apple trees from the Growthcraft mod, except only on the grafted apple branch.

Timeless Modding is kinda dead but idk what to put here now
Another suggestion (if this thread is still going): Make it so you can't hoe dirt that has roots in it. However, hoes will be the tool needed to break roots. This will make hoes a lot more useful. Currently in Minecraft there's no reason to ever make any hoes besides stone because they all do the same exact thing. With this addition, you'd need a good hoe to clear the roots around your base so you could make a farm.
Also reading through old comments I realized I never got back to you about making this into a mod. Sorry about that. My modding team kind of fell apart and we never got around to doing anything. See I can't code, all I do is textures and models, so I'd need someone else to do the coding. Currently I'm just helping out other random modders with textures and stuff.
I really hope you find someone to make this a mod though. If Improved Trees was made into a mod, that combined with BigTrees as well as mods like Biomes O' Plenty and Forestry, would probably be my favorite (tree-related) thing ever.

I like the general idea behind this, but I'm a bit iffy on the branches and roots. They seem unnecessary, and annoying. However, I like the rest of this suggestion, and seasons.

Curse PremiumI think the branch would just drop sticks.
