However, mycelium and podzol can be first converted to dirt paths with a shovel, then tilled into farmland with a hoe. This does not work on mycelium or podzol, nor does it work if there are other blocks on top of the targeted blocks, including snow layers or torches. To till, press use on a grass or dirt block while holding a hoe. Hoes are used to turn dirt, grass blocks, and dirt paths into farmland. For more information, see Breaking § Speed.īreaking any other block takes 0 durability if the block breaks instantly when broken by hand, or 1 otherwise.

I have grown trees right next to each other.ĭon't forget that saplings need a light level of 9 or higher. If these minimum requirements are met, they will grow 100% of the time. Larger gaps then the minimum appear to cause the trees to grow faster and/or need less bone meal. Oak trees ignore adjacent blocks and will grow anyway, provided there is enough space above. Single trees will allow objects to be placed at their diagonals without impeding growth, Giant will not. Single and Giant trees will not grow when they have an adjacent block next to them above ground, including half blocks. Dark Oak needs at least 7 spaces above and must be planted as 4 saplings in a 2×2 square.Giant jungle needs at least 11 spaces above and 1 space adjacent when planted as 4 saplings in a 2×2 square.Jungle needs at least 5 spaces above when placing a single sapling.Giant spruce needs at least 14 spaces above when planted as 4 saplings in a 2×2 square.

Spruce needs at least 7 spaces above when placing a single sapling.The sapling requires a light level of at least 9, and require a certain amount of space around the sapling, based on its type: Oak, birch, and (normal) spruce can also grow on farmland, and 2×2 trees only check for dirt or grass under the northwestern-most sapling. Saplings can grow into trees when placed on dirt, podzol or a grass block.
