Pumpkin and Melon Farm

A 9 by 15 stem farm with 60 farmland stem spots, two water channels and open dirt rows for fruit.

Pumpkin and melon stems grow on farmland and place their fruit on a neighbouring free block. Each farmland row here sits between a water channel and an open dirt row, so stems stay hydrated and always have room to fruit.

How to build the Pumpkin and Melon Farm

  1. 1

    Border

    Lay an 11 by 17 stone brick ring.

  2. 2

    Row pattern

    Across the 9-wide inside, set rows in this order: dirt, farmland, water, farmland, dirt, farmland, water, farmland, dirt.

  3. 3

    Water

    Fill both channels with water along their full length.

  4. 4

    Plant

    Plant pumpkin or melon seeds on all farmland. Leave the dirt rows empty for fruit.

  5. 5

    Light

    Place lanterns on the border so the field stays lit at night.

Builder tips

  • Never place anything on the dirt rows or the stems cannot fruit.
  • Break only the fruit, not the stem.
  • Melons give slices that craft into melon seeds and glistering melon.
