Don't know if it is a bug, but turtle places items in wrong slots.
Normally, you can't place bog earth in the dirt slot of Peat Bog machine, but if you use turtle.drop () (from the side) - it goes there. If you try to use turtle.dropDown() to put it from above, it goes somewhere, you can turtle.suck() it, but can't see it in the GUI.
turtle.dropUp() works, but other sides are doing something strange.

forestry havn't got an all through API for itemplacement. some items go in top some from bottom. some from sides as well. posting this on CC forums is very wrong.

Well, this is neither our fault or Forestry's - the issue is, the interfaces we use do not allow us to check if we are actually allowed to place an item in a certain slot. Without special casing for each mod, it wouldn't be plausible - at least until a better interface gets into forge.

OK, thank you for the explanation
I'll just use a hopper… Turtles can place items into hopper without any problems…

They can place anywhere without issues - you just need to remember the correct side.

Well, yeah, but in my case, bottom would be kinda inconvenient
