Melon Farm
« on: April 14, 2012, 06:10:57 pm »
Hey, I have seen a lot of people make automated melon farms and make tons of money of them.

I was wondering how you make an auto melon farm.
If you could list how that would be great.

Thanks for reading.

You would need: melon seeds,redstone,redstone repeaters,lots of dirt,water and a redstone guru (unless your good with redstone yourself). Hope I helped :).

And pistons   :P

Funny.  I'm in discussion on a separate thread about this topic.  A fully automated version is frowned upon because of impact to server.   However, setup a button, redstone circuit to the pistons, and then have a water flow carry the melon down.

There are tons of (better) designs on line.  A simple one would look something like this:  
(R is redstone and/or repeater as necessary, C cobble/filler, P piston, W Water  D dirt, M melon stalk - pistons/cobble are one level higher than the "M/melon stalk" so that when the piston fires it pushes the melon into the water)
R  R  R  R   R  R   R
R  P  D  W  D  P  R
R  C  M  W M  C  R
R  P  D  W  D  P  R
            |          R
            |          R
            v          R
collection point   (button)

I can help you build one if you need. I know designs for auto and semi auto (button activated pistons, auto retrieval)
