# Dead plants

If your build contains many flowers, carpets, or similar blocks, they may get destroyed when you join the world unless you set the random tick speed to 0 using:

```
/gamerule randomTickSpeed 0
```

* **On a server:** You can set this via the console.
* **On singleplayer:** You’ll need to set it before loading the world or use a mod to control tick speed.

If you are trying to copy and paste and plants keep dying or dropping, you can fix this by running:

```
/perf
```

to turn off unnecessary features, then:

```
/paper fixlight
```

to fix lighting issues.
