@darcipeeps22 this design is a little bit out-dated now. However, the most likely reason that the water isn't breaking the canes is because you'll have forgotten a non-plantable area just after the water tubing. To break the canes, the water must be on the same level as the bottom cane when it makes contact with them.
@ThomascTV If you've done this correctly it will work perfectly. However, there are better ways of doing sugarcane farms now - this design has become obsolete.
@remsat10 my guess is that you're issue might be with the case you built around the water-works. Try removing the case and see if it works. If it does, then it means that your case is cutting off one or more of the water flows.
@slypher2005 it could be for a number of reasons. If the irrigation water is still flowing the sugarcane wont break. Also, if you've missed a non-plantable section right at the start, the water will hit the canes too high (it must hit the bottom cane) and they wont break.
The only other thing I can think of is if you're letting out the harvesting water before blocking the irrigation water sometimes the canes don't realise they need to break.
Thanks for the tute! Works perfectly with one small tweak.
At 3:21 you say to make the channel 6 long by putting in an extra block. This doesn't work the water won't come down it. You actually have to dig an extra one out (or 2 if you include the extra block) to make it 8 long.
You fixed it in the later part of the vid as can be seen at 6:38, but you must have forgot to mention it :p
Also a 3 high wall isn't enough. Often 1 or 2 bits will fly up onto the top of it. I made a glass roof :/
@MorningNewsable well it's still working, but is outdated for sure, now that we have pistons =p it sounds to me like your issue is that you either forgot the last non-plantable area OR you're not draining the irrigation water before trying to harvest
@leonsk33 The only way that this will not work is if you yourself have done something wrong. So, basically, you've just given a video I worked very hard on, in an attempt to show you something you can do in Minecraft, a thumbs down just because YOU made a mistake.
Further, this video was made SIX MONTHS ago and so it's very likely that something could change in an update (and there have been MANY updates since I made this) that would cause it to not work.
@0bliviousZero sounds to me like you aren't blocking the irrigation water when you come to harvest the sugar canes - I didn't do that for my own personal entertainment, you know? =p
To break the canes you MUST first remove the irrigation water (by blocking the stream) and THEN send the harvesting water. This will break the canes
@NinjaPandaz27 Basically all you need to do is make a stone box around the thing. Make sure it's not cutting off any of the waterworks (there's really no need for it to be anywhere near the canals) and you should be fine. It's such a simple part of the build that I didn't even think to include it in the tutorial - I think the issue is that people are thinking it needs to be more complicated than it actually is.
I am envous of Steve, if the monsters don't kill him he is pretty much immortal for age, then he could take technology in his world to god knows what level
@xGeordieGaming Yeah, I've been planning on making one of those (and have had a design in my head for it since before pistons went vanilla - it was perhaps the first thing I thought of doing with pistons when I heard about them =p). Thanks for alerting me to this though =)
i did everything you did, and when i did the irrigation thing 8:12, it only went fully down the middle, and the other two sides it stopped after the first change of leveling in the blocks. help?
First time I made this farm, I forgot to put dirt between the wooden planks, like you did in 3:26, and the second time I did it puting the dirt and it blocked the water. Maybe it's the problem that people are having. |:
I'm fairly new to minecraft and i started to attempt this build: my only problem is creating the casing @ 6:36 . I don't really know how to build it (as it looks like you delete dirt blocks to place the stone ones); could you help me please? Much appreciated :)
@Korsfestelse The case is relatively straight-forward. Just build a box around the water works, making sure not to cut anything off (you don't even really need to build the case anywhere near the piping)
@777static777 i dont know whats wrong but, i did everything u did (without the case) the inrigation water goes all over the place, and the harvesting water doesnt even come out?
@TheCookieSide That's really strange. Make sure you watch the video with annotations on - I misplaced a block and used annotations to point out which block it was.
@777static777 still nothing dude, the water doesnt reach, i redesigned it on my other channel: PROMinecrafters1, have a look, i deleted the bottom part, if u do watch it go to 1:07
@777static777 its TheCookieSide btw XD, the water don't reach, if you want look at my video, i redesigned it deleting the whole bottom part so th water reaches, go to 1:07 to see it
@777static777 Yeah, i tried this exactly (without the case), but when I wanted to harvest the sugar canes, they would just block the harvesting water and not break. So I'm guessing that the only way to make an automatic sugar cane farm is to just push the sugar canes with pistons.
@b0bsaget007 Nah the water versions do work... it sounds like you may have the harvesting water coming out at the same level as the base sugar cane OR you may not be blocking off the irrigation water.
@b0bsaget007 Yep, this style of farm works because sugarcane can't grow if it isn't being irrigated so they should break the moment you remove the irrigation streams. However, most of the time the blocks wont update and the sugarcane will stay. The harvesting water forces the canes to update (and therefore break) as well as bringing the drops to you.
@gwnvdfun I skipped it because it's extremely straight forward - just make a cube around the water works. You don't need to cover up any of the tubes individually (in fact, if you do that you're likely to do something wrong and cut off a water stream) instead, just make a case around the entire thing. This design is out-dated though, and I might do a tutorial soon on a pistonised sugarcane farm.
@nosense82 The reason I didn't cover it on the video is because I thought it was pretty straight forward and would be a waste of time. Basically you don't want to touch ANY of the water works with the case - the top of the case (the floor for when you're getting to the water-control thingo) should be at the height of the figure-8 we made and extend horizontally to the sides and front of the water-works section where it then becomes vertical walls. So, it's just a simple cube.
You skipped a pretty important step in which you knocked out two dirt blocks beside and diagonally behind the third set of wood blocks that you placed. Might want to add a chat bubble in which you explain that.
@TopMinecraftBuilds hmm unfortunately I don't think that's the issue (that would be quite an easy issue to get around) but it might be something to do on my next application just in case. I don't think Docm did this when applying for his partnership so... Also, youtube usually tells you why you didn't get accepted and the message said that I didn't have "a large enough viewership", which is why I think it's a glitch.
@TopMinecraftBuilds Haha yeah the strong accents are hilarious (even I think so =p) but mine's not that strong. I have, a couple of times actually... I have a feeling that my last rejection was a youtube glitch as Docm got accepted with almost exactly the same statistics. However, there's not a whole lot I have can do about it except for wait until August 25th when I can apply again...
@TopMinecraftBuilds ...you do know that us Aussies don't say "dos" right? Dos just an out dated way of navigating your computer. Also, no Aussie (aside from Steve Irwin) has ever seriously said crikey in the last couple decades.
@shotgun5250 The cover is easy - just build a case around the waterworks making sure not to cut any of them off. Besides, this design is out-dated now that pistons are available. Might make a tutorial on how to make one of these farms using pistons instead.
@777static777 Yea, I experimented a little with it and made my own variation of this design using pistons and redstone to make it easier to get all the sugarcane without having to go all the way up to the top! Pretty sweet design tho. made it with a decorative water scheme and stuff!
@lv61inrunescape This should work perfectly for a wheat farm as well - some people have actually put up videos on youtube of working wheat farms that use this technique.
I think the problem is, that water is not flowing as far or as powerfully as when you made your video, I'm on 1.6.6, you're on 1.5. Needed to let the side channels water drop 1 block earlier and still does not reach collection point by a couple blocks, (on irrigation stream) middle one was alright after removing a glass block at the start. checking harvest stream when more are brown (testing with wheat)
@777static777 yea sure, just meant i think that's why it's not working exactly as u built it in this oldish video. I got it workin with minimal fuss no prob, thanks for the tut
@Velzish I'm not sure I have the save file to this world any more. However, in the next few weeks I'll be uploading a tutorial on how to make one of these using pistons - it will be MUCH easier =)
Awesome idea but unfortunately, after doing the whole thing twice, I can confirm what others have previously said. The middle "grow" channel work and the harvest channels are working perfectly. In the other hand the 2 side "grow" channels stop right where the glass starts. And yes I have watched your video with annotations on, therefore removed that extra block.
@PedoWookie I would have to personally look at the farm you've built and figure out what's been done wrong because you'll also be able to see by looking through the comments that this has worked for the majority of people and (as you can see in the video) has worked for me =p Nevertheless, it will become much easier to make this kind of farm after the 1.7 patch comes out later today. I'll release a tutorial in the next few weeks on a version of this farm made with pistons.
I tried to recreate this in my world, but after i poured out the farming water, it all worked awesome apart from the side two channels: they stop one block short of the final squares...
My suggestion would be that you might have watched this video with annotations turned off. I placed one block where I shouldn't have in this tutorial and I point it out using an annotation. Keep an eye out for the annotation, remove that block, and the farm should be right as rain =)
@MrCheatmaster987 You're not including the walls on the outside of the single block wide tiers. Those are necessary unless you want the water (and the sugarcane from those tiers) to go everywhere =p
@TheScruffylevy Make sure you watch the video with annotations enabled - I accidentally placed a block somewhere that messes up the water streams and I point out which block it is using annotations.
@phoenix7540 Thanks for subscribing =D haha well I'm pretty sure that this farm could also be used with wheat, though I haven't tested that yet. Once you find your first sugarcanes, you'll start getting more pretty quickly ; )
@DaBestFilmsEva My only suggestion is make sure you watch the tutorials with annotations enabled - I placed a block where I shouldn't (which will mess up the water currents) and point out which one it is with annotations. Beyond that, the farm should work..
@DaBestFilmsEva I can confirm what DaBestFilmsEva said.. though the changes to make it work aren't difficult to figure out. Don't encase the water mechanism right away. Make the water "T" at the top and test it. Make the changes to both the "grow" and "harvest" streams while everything's exposed. The side "grow" streams need to be extended to the edges of the build before the water drops a block. The harvest streams need a wall behind them.
@DoggieVlogs Not as far as I've seen... Pistons may change this - although I can't think of a design off the top of my head, even with pistons, that would allow you to harvest the sugarcane and move it to a single collection point, without the need to replant, unless the broken canes land on top of the extended pistons.
At this stage, the only way to harvest sugar cane without needing to replant it is manually (walking around and punching the parts of the cane you want to break off)
@DoggieVlogs Only if done on a small scale. This farm benefits from something known as "economies of scale". Because it's using a larger farming area and thus able to grow more sugarcane, it becomes a lot quicker and easier to harvest this way than to go around and manually harvest
I tried this but when i tried the water wouldnt break the sugar cane. I also made mine with a lever.

@777static777 i made oneof these with pistons if u want to see it u can join my server
TheFIRETRUCK2121 8 months ago
@TheFIRETRUCK2121 Thanks for the offer man, but I know precisely how I'd choose to make one of these using pistons =)

jabbawockeez78 8 months ago
@jabbawockeez78 Not a problem =)
777static777 8 months ago
@777static777 can you also make one with pistons from 1.7.2
jabbawockeez78 8 months ago
@jabbawockeez78 Yep, I plan to make pistonised versions of just about every type of farm you can think of and do a tutorial on them =)
777static777 8 months ago
@777static777 okay i'll wait for your upcoming videos until
jabbawockeez78 8 months ago
with 1.7 pistons and a timer, you CAN make this fully automatic.
mrBorkD 8 months ago
@mrBorkD Yep, I'm well aware of this. Of course, at the time I made this I had no idea that 1.7 was coming out and that pistons would be added.
777static777 8 months ago
@777static777 yeah, i thought you'd know but it was just a heads up to other viewers :)
mrBorkD 8 months ago
@mrBorkD that was thoughtful of you =)

I think the problem is, that water is not flowing as far or as powerfully as when you made your video, I'm on 1.6.6, you're on 1.5. Needed to let the side channels water drop 1 block earlier and still does not reach collection point by a couple blocks, (on irrigation stream) middle one was alright after removing a glass block at the start. checking harvest stream when more are brown (testing with wheat)
victornun147 8 months ago
@victornun147 I was on 1.5 when I made this farm, yes. But I have seen a working version in 1.7 as well.
777static777 8 months ago
@777static777 yea sure, just meant i think that's why it's not working exactly as u built it in this oldish video. I got it workin with minimal fuss no prob, thanks for the tut
victornun147 8 months ago
@victornun147 Awesome man, glad to hear it =)
777static777 8 months ago
Static, can you help me figure out how to use pistons now on this so we do not have to climb up every time?
shoedawg620 8 months ago
@shoedawg620 I'll be doing a tutorial on that in the next couple of weeks I think =)
777static777 8 months ago
@Velzish I'm not sure I have the save file to this world any more. However, in the next few weeks I'll be uploading a tutorial on how to make one of these using pistons - it will be MUCH easier =)
777static777 8 months ago
Awesome idea but unfortunately, after doing the whole thing twice, I can confirm what others have previously said. The middle "grow" channel work and the harvest channels are working perfectly. In the other hand the 2 side "grow" channels stop right where the glass starts. And yes I have watched your video with annotations on, therefore removed that extra block.
Thanks and looking forward for a solution!
PedoWookie 8 months ago
@PedoWookie I would have to personally look at the farm you've built and figure out what's been done wrong because you'll also be able to see by looking through the comments that this has worked for the majority of people and (as you can see in the video) has worked for me =p Nevertheless, it will become much easier to make this kind of farm after the 1.7 patch comes out later today. I'll release a tutorial in the next few weeks on a version of this farm made with pistons.

777static777 8 months ago
hey, awesome job making this
I tried to recreate this in my world, but after i poured out the farming water, it all worked awesome apart from the side two channels: they stop one block short of the final squares...
please advise! thanks a ton
LamBeBunny 8 months ago
@LamBeBunny Thanks mate =)
My suggestion would be that you might have watched this video with annotations turned off. I placed one block where I shouldn't have in this tutorial and I point it out using an annotation. Keep an eye out for the annotation, remove that block, and the farm should be right as rain =)
777static777 8 months ago
u said 11x24 but u have a 9x24 wtf
MrCheatmaster987 8 months ago
@MrCheatmaster987 You're not including the walls on the outside of the single block wide tiers. Those are necessary unless you want the water (and the sugarcane from those tiers) to go everywhere =p
777static777 8 months ago
i think i screwed up on the cover do you have to have a cover
TheScruffylevy 8 months ago
@TheScruffylevy Nope a cover isn't necessary, it just neatens up the design a little bit.
777static777 8 months ago
i copied the design exactly but when i want to poor the water it didnt work wtf
TheScruffylevy 8 months ago
@TheScruffylevy Make sure you watch the video with annotations enabled - I accidentally placed a block somewhere that messes up the water streams and I point out which block it is using annotations.
777static777 8 months ago
thx subbed:) already made one and i dont even have sugar canes yet:P
phoenix7540 8 months ago
@phoenix7540 Thanks for subscribing =D haha well I'm pretty sure that this farm could also be used with wheat, though I haven't tested that yet. Once you find your first sugarcanes, you'll start getting more pretty quickly ; )

@777static777 yeah my farm is almost full now:)

777static777 8 months ago
I think the water principles changed, the current isn't even and the sides don't harvest :/ Any fix?
DaBestFilmsEva 8 months ago
@DaBestFilmsEva My only suggestion is make sure you watch the tutorials with annotations enabled - I placed a block where I shouldn't (which will mess up the water currents) and point out which one it is with annotations. Beyond that, the farm should work..
777static777 8 months ago
@DaBestFilmsEva I can confirm what DaBestFilmsEva said.. though the changes to make it work aren't difficult to figure out. Don't encase the water mechanism right away. Make the water "T" at the top and test it. Make the changes to both the "grow" and "harvest" streams while everything's exposed. The side "grow" streams need to be extended to the edges of the build before the water drops a block. The harvest streams need a wall behind them.

is tere also a way to farm it without having to replant?
DoggieVlogs 8 months ago 2
@DoggieVlogs Not as far as I've seen... Pistons may change this - although I can't think of a design off the top of my head, even with pistons, that would allow you to harvest the sugarcane and move it to a single collection point, without the need to replant, unless the broken canes land on top of the extended pistons.
At this stage, the only way to harvest sugar cane without needing to replant it is manually (walking around and punching the parts of the cane you want to break off)
777static777 8 months ago
@777static777 uhu the last thing is what i do.. i kinda farm at small scale, so i have the amount i need
stilleI get loads of sugar cane by using a small area
harvesting takes a short time, while this method of harvesting and replanting takes more time i guess.
DoggieVlogs 8 months ago
@DoggieVlogs Only if done on a small scale. This farm benefits from something known as "economies of scale". Because it's using a larger farming area and thus able to grow more sugarcane, it becomes a lot quicker and easier to harvest this way than to go around and manually harvest
777static777 8 months ago
@777static777 i guess thats true but i get more than i need from that small farm

Could you replace the sugar cane's with seeds?
To grow wheat?
Would it then still work?
