Hey all, stumbled upon this crossword from a scavenger hunt held in an online community I'm a part of. It's a cryptic crossword and has had some super creative clues so far, but everybody involved has been stumped on these last three, was wondering if anyone could help out!

4 Down - The pope made of felt that liked rock songs was the... (3 words, 15 letters)

11 Across - When you plant to grow words. (2 words, 10 letters)

3 Down - If you have some (2 words) you can open a car was (2 words, 7 letters ending in H)

Any help on these would be awesome, thanks a bunch!

Is there a super creative prize for the winner ?

Did you mean car wash for the last clue? Assuming so, I would guess the answer is raw cash, an anagram of car wash.

Is 3 D as ii is the correct wording - 'you can open a car was'? If so, the clue reads horribly!

Mathprof... I thought of that too - but it didn't seem hard enough to have stumped others!

Raw Cash is the same answer I've come too. Others think it's car wash but I think that's too an obtuse an answer. Still absolutely no clues on the others though

Ah my bad, was meant to be car wash ^^

Does no one have any letters placed at all seeing as these are the last three in the crossword?

Currently we have _._._._.O._.O._._._._._._.T._. for 4 down, none for 11 across. Thinking the beginning of it could be 'bishop of', but unsure how to finish it out

Bishop of puppets! is what we're pretty confident 4 down is

This goes us 'p' as the 4th letter in 11 across, and a lot of uncertainty in the solution to 3 down
