'''Farming''' is the planting and [[harvesting]] of various [[seed]]s and [[fruit]]s. They can be planted by selecting the desired item in the inventory then tapping a block of surface [[dirt]], [[sand]], or [[compost]]. While compost can be used for any plant, dirt and sand have restrictions. All plants that can be planted in sand can also be planted in black sand.

If fruit trees are planted too close to other trees, their growth will be stunted. Food can be quickly obtained in real-time by planting then having a [[Blockhead]] [[meditate]]. They may stop meditating when the fruit or vegetable appears.
[[Kelp]] has variant planting restrictions. The block it is planted in is irrelevant (so long as it is solid), but it must be covered by enough [[water]] to  allow it to be picked up by a [[bucket]]. Planting under water at least two blocks deep allows harvesting without replanting.


Vegetables may be harvested with a [[machete]] or a [[spade]] to increase yield. Planting anything in compost will tend to increase its size and yield.
If fruit trees are planted too close to other trees, their growth will be stunted due to interference between trees. Food can be quickly obtained in real-time by planting then having a [[blockhead]] [[meditate]]. They may stop meditating when the fruit or vegetable appears.
 
Vegetables may be harvested with a [[machete]] or a [[spade]] to increase yield. When mature, some may have their upper half harvested while leaving the lower half in place without replanting. Planting anything in compost will tend to increase its size and yield.
