My 6yr old daughter just discovered Minecraft and has sucked me into playing with her. We now have a flourishing compound in survival mode and we’ve really enjoyed playing together over the summer break. Thank you for posting these guides, she’ll be so excited when I show her these 🙏
These rules do not match bedrock. Light does matter in bedrock and you can plant seeds in a cave where you don't have enough light to actually make it grow and they will never grow.
The way Minecraft detects if you’re growing crops “in rows” is whether there’s the same type of crop to the diagonal. That means that your checkerboard pumpkin field is slower than a checkerboard mixed pumpkin/melon field. Other than that, this seems like a great video with accurate information.
yeah like he showed, he makes them have 4 spots to grow onto instead of 2, doubling the speed, just gotta make sure you alternate melons and pumpkins so it wont be directly diagonal and cancel the doubling.
@@juleznava843 at least according to the wiki, the diagonal check also influences the rate of fruit production once the vine is grown, in addition to the probability of success increasing with how many adjacent spaces are open for a pumpkin or melon to be placed.
I have used the Asian method of rice farming in the mountains. Without the rice, of course. But with the 1.18 release, and the dramatic increase in mountains and hills, I find it useful in some places. Just use the 4 over method and run a river down the mountain side. It's unique and adds a cool touch.
@@Wakeuptorealityman but it will be very complicated. Rice itself will be very boring. To make biryani, pulav, khichdi, sushi, etc... we would need spices, hence more complications.
@Spaggetti Noodles They just changed that - the animal breeding/luring - they added the ability for some animals to be lured or bred with different stuff than previous.
Later expansions and additions to terrain generation are prime targets for new content, even when it doesn't make sense : mojang does this to compensate for players who already explored too much of their world, so when they update to 1.9 they can't find any beetroot anywhere in their world.
@@Eyecraftmc Does it have to be different groups of crops for it to grow faster? Or can you do the same with the same group of crops (carrots in one row and potatoes in the other)
**cocoa, sugarcane, and netherwart crying together in the corner** But really, great video! Would be awesome to see a part 2 covering the "unconventional" crops.
That might be because those crops don't really have any "hidden features" like the ones that grow on farmland, like how it grows faster next to a different type of crop, or the need for light, or the interaction with water. Netherwart for example you can place anywhere as long as it's planted on soul sand, and it's growth rate never changes. Don't think that needs a guide tbh lol
A _very_ important part of making a classic 9x9 farm in Minecraft is to use a carved pumpkin, a hay hale and three to four pieces of fence (two banners for style) to construct a Scarecrow that will stand on top of the waterlogged slab in the middle. A farm without a scarecrow can hardly be called a farm at all, after all. Make the fence base two fences high to prevent the scarecrow from blocking your path too much.
I usually use a trapdoor to cover my water. (just a little more decorative) I also didn't know about the "light not needed below a minimum for crops" thing. I feel a little silly for all the lighting up my farms I've been doing.
I like to light up my farms in case I do a nighttime harvest/planting. I don't want to get surprised out in the fields. I've also seen monsters just on crops and destroy them.
I actually learned the fortune thing in a video somewhere else on how to create a good nether wart farm with a rail collection system. I always forget about it though when farming regular crops. *facepalm*
A few things to note: 1. As another commenter mentioned: bees. 2. Sugarcane 3. Sweet berries 4. Melons can also be found growing in acacia (savanna) villages as well as stockpiled (similar to the way haybales are stockpiled, albeit in much lower quantities)
I remember wondering if Fortune worked on crops, and until now I believed it didn't. I learned something new. I love your guides, getting straight to the point and no unneeded information on the side. Earned a sub! I bet many more will follow : )
You've drastically changed how I think about farming! I had no idea about alternating rows of different crops and that improving speed. Also I had no idea you could use a Fortune-enchanted item, and that it doesn't use durability. Fabulous!
I'm slowly, but surely getting into Minecraft. I've seen quite a few videos where people have one hole of water watering their farms and I've always wanted to know how to do that and you've showed me. TYSSM!!!!!
you can grow sweet berry bushes (thorn bushes) in farmland and it will yield more bush drops than harvesting it from regular grass. So you can grow a lot of bushes to push around your base and protect it.
i love your tone when your speaking about this, you sound so experienced and prpofessional, like an actual faramer whos made an honest living for most of his life selling his crops. passing down his craft to one of his 17 children.
This is quickly becoming my favorite (and only) channel for minecraft. Ive been playing xbox 360 and from there to now I was 8 updates behind! Now im playing on the Switch and have A LOT of catching up to do! Love this channel, no excess goofy, no weird gimmicks, just knowledge that's concise but not vague. Super appreciate it! 💙
I have an alternative pathing to melon/pumpkins. I do lanes for it but lane 1, 4, 6, and 9 (going left to right..lane 5 is water) those are the tilled dirt, leaving lanes 2-3 and 7-8 for the blocks made by the seeds. And I replace grass blocks with coarse dirt to give it a more farm feel to it. As best as possible for demonstration Ex. [=++=~=++=] [ ] are fences or whatever you choose = are tilled dirt + are product ~ is water
great video man! your channel is so underrated. also, a nice way to cover water in crops is using carpet (blue gets it real nice)! they cover it perfectly and you can even put a light source down in the water
Great video. Thank you. Just recently got back into minecraft and I never knew that if you alternated crops it would grow faster (I did use a checkerboard pattern though.) Also, haven't tested it since coming back, but if you planted only pumpkins (no melon) it used to be that sometimes 2 vines would connect to the same pumpkin. I always left 2 spaces in between my pumpkin rows to prevent that. (I don't care for melon as a food source, but I love pumpkin pies.)
Really good video, you can however use Fortune on Melons, you have a chance of receiving 9 slices which you normally would not, since its capped at 7 without Fortune III
@@Changecangs don’t you have to eventually break the melon to eat it anyways? Also, what happens if you fortune a melon, craft a melon, and fortune mine it again? (In case anyone in this thread knows)
This guy is actual legend. I took a break from minecraft for a year and this really helped refresh my memory plus some myth busting stuff. So under-appreciated.
I am a veteran MC player with over 12 years of experience (started out with Xbox 360 Edition), and it's always fascinating how I am learning new things everyday that add to the enjoyability of this game. In fact, it's the first time I've learned about the lily pad, slab, and stair trick on water. Thanks for this amazing & informative vid!
Excellent video! Good work. A well-formatted overview of all things farming. Learned a few things, like the darkness. Bonemeal helps with growth and hoppers with collecting. Nice job I liked the video.
I haven't checked to see if it makes a speed difference, but you can plant pumpkins and melons in rows, and I figured out a way that keeps the pumpkins and melons that emerge right where they need to be. Have a 9x9 grid with a cobblestone border (or any other block that pumpkins and melons can't "land on." Rows: Dirt (or course dirt in mushroom biomes), pumpkin plants, melon plants, dirt row, cobblestone row with water source in the middle, dirt row, melon plants, pumpkin plants, dirt row. This gives me neat rows of pumpkins and melons to harvest, in the same 9x9 grid as the rest of my farms, with just 6 blocks unused due to the water source row not being used for planting to keep from plants competing for "landing space."
super wholesome, loved the calmness of your voice throughout the video. you gave me a few ideas for some of my worlds. never change, hope you can reach 1 mil sometime soon. cheers!
I have played Minecraft for 10 years and have thousands of hours played and I still didn’t know all of this, thank you. This will be useful in my next world
I started playing Minecraft in 2014 and I'm still finding out new things about this game. I cannot believe that I am just now learning that crop rotation was actually implemented in the game.
Hey, you can also put villager to work on crops, just fill its inventory with the seeds or crop that you want (they inventory hold 8 packs to be exactly) and put a composter there, for collecting the crops you can make some rail under the farm so a hoppaer in a minecart can take it
7:50 If you're doing something similar to this video in the future, may I recommend raising the tick speed, showing how plats grow, while describing how crops work? In informational videos 'show and tell' is a good format, I think. It stimulates double the senses, so about twice as many neurons can upload the information for watchers' memories.. I guess game audio would be good to have on as well (as you did in this one).
And go into survival mode when getting seeds from grass, craft melon seeds while speaking of it etc. Same 'show and tell'-thing really. I'm merely repeating myself in new words.
Really cool and informative video! The fortune part actually surprised me 😯 but unfortunately I don’t need a farm because I have an iron farm which I can use to get emeralds and thus golden carrots
I'm sorry if this is a dumb question. When planting in rows, do the crops have to _align_ with the *_farmland texture,_* or is it that as long as they are in a _line formation_ that they would get the growth bonus? Ex: [ll] [ll] [ll] instead of [=][=][=]
Thank you! I've been looking for a manual farming tutorial for melons and pumpkings. After scrolling through many pages of automatic farms, I landed here. Subscribed and bell set to ALL.
Thank you so much for the new methods, I will remember this the next time I am planting my crops, I am leaning how to make an automatic farm, and this is a very helpful way to plant many crops at the same time. as well as I know how efficiently how to grow melons and pumpkins and how to grow Potatoes and carrots, as I've been trying to figure out how to grow those two, and I soon had a theory they grow like the real things, and I was right.
Great videos Could you do video of Villager job stations? basically getting specific items from Villagers for best enjoyment of the game. Cause a certain item or book would be preferable.
Thanks man, i’m still just getting into Minecraft and I needed some help with some stuff including how to grow crops. You made it simple to understand and I am one step closer to becoming a Minecraft master! 🤩 Definitely dropping a like! 👍
Been playing Minecraft for years. I learned something very new to me. I didn't know if you try to plant crops in the dark it won't let you unless there is sky light. That is pretty cool!
Farming ... I butt my plots against each other, but had a hard time harvesting the inner line over the water blocks, so... I increased the number of water blocks to 3, spaced them out, so that I could grow bamboo, and that makes it even more productive. It would make the strip of water, having grown bamboo in it. I plant in a checker board pattern w/ crops arraigned in a checkerboard pattern so they are not constrained by having crops growing up next to them, and then go plant in the other checkerboard so they can grow up next to mature crops half the time. Also for melons, your melons are all over the place, I plant them on alternating sides of an alley with dirt spacing, so they grow all in a line, and I can harvest them all in one direction. WahZee referred me here for a few updates.
The best farm design for me for wheat/carrot/potato/beetroot is 8x8. You put water source blocks on each corner block and put a sea lantern on each side. As tilled dirt is slightly lower than a normal block height, even if you cover the sea lanterns with a block, once tilled they lat our light. Plus its exactly 1 stack of items you will need to re-seed it back up.
never even thought of using a fortune eenchanted tool to farm crops this is a massive game changer for me as someone that only plays minecraft on occasions very informative video!
I don't know how much game updates may have changed things but i just put cobblestone slabs over my water and that works just fine. Also, i usually build a farm that is 64 squares long and 11 squares wide. I find this to be the most efficient. There will be the water row in the middle, capped with cobblestone slabs. then the first 2 rows on each side of the water will be sugar cane then the next 2 rows on each side will be carrots wheat potatoes and beetroot. The last 2 rows on the outside will be watermellon and pumpkin, then there are another 2 rows out of range of the water, but that is ok because the melons will be placed here just fine. When it comes time to harvest, it is a simple matter to run down the rows 64 squares long and replant back the other way - make sure to replant the other crops before harvesting the melons or they will throw melons on your farmland if you leave it open without a crop. I am not really going to grow much beetroot, i will collect a couple of stacks for food and soup, then stop growing it. If i find a farmer who wants to buy beetroot i will break his composter and reset him, i don't want to trade this most useless crop. Watermellon is the best crop in terms of value, but only if you have a silk touch axe. (it takes too much time recombining watermellon slices to sell to villagers) Pumpkin is probably the best crop overall because you can easily build an automatic farm that will grow it, harvest it, and pack it in a chest. All you have to do is take it out of the chest and sell to villages - it is the perfect arrangement! But you need allot of iron and gold and redstone to build the automatic farm, so, you will have to be content with harvesting it the regular way in the early stages of the game.
I subscribed. I have zero experience in Minecraft. I don't know what to do after making plank. A video about "what should you do first, if you found something?" would be very much helpful for newbies.
Never knew about the tick speed when planting in rows! Been the designated farmer for years lol. Thanks for your videos, they’ve helped me a lot returning to 1.19 especially ❤😊

Dad is that you?
Adorable
This is so nice to hear about that, I wish I could live that as well when I get older :D
You forgot to mention that bees flying over your crops (if they're dripping pollen) can also increase crop growth.
I did forget to mention that :(
But the speed increase is so low that (if I remember correctly) even Ilmango doesn't care about it
I found it to be pretty fast. But that was in my honey farm. 20 bees with flowers on the out side of the crops, two crops fields grew pretty quick.
@@sonix7119 bruh.

Beetroot seeds can be found in end city treasure chests. Because, you know, they're an important end game resource.

@@Sly-Moose and cactus technically
In Bedrock, you can bonemeal sugar cane to it's max state of 3 sugar cane. So making an efficient sugar can farm is possible in Bedrock.
@@masterblaster2678 well, i think netherwart needs glowstone above it so it grows faster if im not wrong

I believe it doesnt matter since the game checks the corner blocks to see if ur farm is in a patch or in a row
Either is fine :)
Ah, thanks a bunch guys!
Thank you! I've been looking for a manual farming tutorial for melons and pumpkings. After scrolling through many pages of automatic farms, I landed here. Subscribed and bell set to ALL.
i play this game since 1.6.4 and didnt know a lot of this tips
thx man! amazing guide
Thank you so much for the new methods, I will remember this the next time I am planting my crops, I am leaning how to make an automatic farm, and this is a very helpful way to plant many crops at the same time. as well as I know how efficiently how to grow melons and pumpkins and how to grow Potatoes and carrots, as I've been trying to figure out how to grow those two, and I soon had a theory they grow like the real things, and I was right.
I've been watching your videos lately and there's so much stuff I've never thought of! Keep up with the good work, you're awesome!
Thanks! Will do!
Very clear and informative
Great videos
Could you do video of Villager job stations?
basically getting specific items from Villagers
for best enjoyment of the game.
Cause a certain item or book would be preferable.
Thanks man, i’m still just getting into Minecraft and I needed some help with some stuff including how to grow crops. You made it simple to understand and I am one step closer to becoming a Minecraft master! 🤩 Definitely dropping a like! 👍
Thank you, I haven’t seriously played since like 2015-16. Playing again with gf and been at a loss with all the new stuff and trying to remember stuff
Been playing Minecraft for years. I learned something very new to me. I didn't know if you try to plant crops in the dark it won't let you unless there is sky light. That is pretty cool!
Farming ... I butt my plots against each other, but had a hard time harvesting the inner line over the water blocks, so... I increased the number of water blocks to 3, spaced them out, so that I could grow bamboo, and that makes it even more productive. It would make the strip of water, having grown bamboo in it.
I plant in a checker board pattern w/ crops arraigned in a checkerboard pattern so they are not constrained by having crops growing up next to them, and then go plant in the other checkerboard so they can grow up next to mature crops half the time.
Also for melons, your melons are all over the place, I plant them on alternating sides of an alley with dirt spacing, so they grow all in a line, and I can harvest them all in one direction.
WahZee referred me here for a few updates.
The best farm design for me for wheat/carrot/potato/beetroot is 8x8. You put water source blocks on each corner block and put a sea lantern on each side.
As tilled dirt is slightly lower than a normal block height, even if you cover the sea lanterns with a block, once tilled they lat our light.
Plus its exactly 1 stack of items you will need to re-seed it back up.
Your channel indeed underappreciated
Wow thank you 😮
This is, by far, the best "guide" I have ever seen. I better go see what other topics you've created guides for. Thank you so much!
No joke, your vids have been helping me so much with my most recent survival world
This channel is so underrated, so so helpful! You deserve over a million subs
Man, I have no words how much you helping me getting into the game. Love your tutorials
Trapdoors can also be used to cover water sources
You’re missing a few points, but best guide I’ve ever seen. Well put together and narrated.
Best video I’ve seen in a while. Great concentration of information 👌
Glad it was helpful!
I did not know about the light level and fortune effect. Thanks for the video.
No Problem :)
You post by far the BEST tutorial/info videos I have ever seen!! Keep up the good work man!💛
Wow, thanks!
Thank you so much, this was a great guide and I couldn’t find anything better
never even thought of using a fortune eenchanted tool to farm crops
this is a massive game changer for me as someone that only plays minecraft on occasions
very informative video!
I don't know how much game updates may have changed things but i just put cobblestone slabs over my water and that works just fine.
Also, i usually build a farm that is 64 squares long and 11 squares wide. I find this to be the most efficient.
There will be the water row in the middle, capped with cobblestone slabs. then the first 2 rows on each side of the water will be sugar cane then the next 2 rows on each side will be carrots wheat potatoes and beetroot. The last 2 rows on the outside will be watermellon and pumpkin, then there are another 2 rows out of range of the water, but that is ok because the melons will be placed here just fine.
When it comes time to harvest, it is a simple matter to run down the rows 64 squares long and replant back the other way - make sure to replant the other crops before harvesting the melons or they will throw melons on your farmland if you leave it open without a crop.
I am not really going to grow much beetroot, i will collect a couple of stacks for food and soup, then stop growing it. If i find a farmer who wants to buy beetroot i will break his composter and reset him, i don't want to trade this most useless crop.
Watermellon is the best crop in terms of value, but only if you have a silk touch axe. (it takes too much time recombining watermellon slices to sell to villagers)
Pumpkin is probably the best crop overall because you can easily build an automatic farm that will grow it, harvest it, and pack it in a chest. All you have to do is take it out of the chest and sell to villages - it is the perfect arrangement! But you need allot of iron and gold and redstone to build the automatic farm, so, you will have to be content with harvesting it the regular way in the early stages of the game.
your videos are so information filled and relaxing, Keep up the good work.
Great guide! I didn't know that about light. Good to know.
I subscribed. I have zero experience in Minecraft. I don't know what to do after making plank. A video about "what should you do first, if you found something?" would be very much helpful for newbies.
What is redstone lamp? how to see client light?
What is fortune III, How to see durability?
How did you turned off skylight with a switch thing?
How do you fly? What is tick speed? how did you increased it?
What is a piston?
Never knew about the tick speed when planting in rows! Been the designated farmer for years lol.
Thanks for your videos, they’ve helped me a lot returning to 1.19 especially ❤😊
