the series the

guide

of course so we start in front of the pyramid the great name of the pyramid of the great village villager that I need it we are starting here to show the pyramid because we are changing gears, no more pyramid or villager stuff, today we have been doing it with a lot of shaders again in the intro, be it SLS, beautiful shaders by the way, but today, do you remember when I crashed my get off Rab had died the only time and then he lost it to the

cactus

here well, yes, today we will finally get revenge on the

cactus

, that's the name of the game, the big plan, the bark is happy about that, happier about that, I'm happy. about this and I have my mind set on revenge of the cactus, so that's the plan, that's what we're doing now, before we do any of that, I need to go get materials for desert eve, so I guess that we're actually going to go on a nice plane trip north to the desert, so we can get a lot of sandstone, actually a little more cactus.

I only have four and sand left, but yes, today's plan is the revenge of the evil cactus. Automatic style. What all that means is basically

auto

matic. cactus

farm

is the plan today and can we appreciate the shaders for a second more? I'll think about it in a minute, but my goodness, they look so good, so good, ah, I love these shaders. I would wear them 24/7 if But something like these mountains here might look good for what I'm looking for. Of course, we're going for sandstone primarily. We can also get sand, but sandstone is the main thing, so I'm going to go ahead and dig this. for a while and then I'll join you once I have enough for today's project, that's right, we won't stop in the middle today, believe it or not believe it or not, yes, I promise, maybe, maybe you'll provide, oh.

No, I promise I'll go dig and we'll go. Hello City of Savannah. Do you miss your villager friends? Oh, too soon. Okay, we won't talk about that, but we should have enough materials. I have full inventories, so I hope we can. It's a good time to go back, leave the map and get to the construction. Hey, look, Skylands is on the map. Actually, I just noticed this. I'm dimming, pointing directly at him with my pointer. You see the square on the map. AHA. but they're circles, that's the joke mm-hmm I still have to get rid of that block down there yeah, can we do it while we fly?

That's a bad idea, oh oh, that was a dangerous idea, but I did it pretty well. That's fine, so go back to the map and now it's time to determine exactly where I would like to build this build today. Honestly, I'm torn in two opposite directions. Part of me wants to build the cactus

farm

on the other side of this tree farm. here in this empty area because it's a little unfinished looking here at how it is now the other part of me says maybe go this way to the gangster farm and go more or less in this area here ah, come to think of it let's go this way many yes, yes, I don't know how this build will turn out, if I'm honest I have an idea, but yes, I don't know well, build it here, so an

auto

matic cactus farm, what?

Would you need to build an automatic cactus farm? Well, you will need cactus, you will need sand to plant the cactus, you will want some flagstones, any type of flagstone should be fine and water, and finally, last but not least, you need some. space because if you want a cactus farm to be productive at least in the way we are going to build it, it will have to be big. Today's cactus farm I think will be small, as a starter, because I really need green. I wanted to make a pickle farm or something and then I realized, oh, you know, we just don't have a good source of green dye, so yeah, the goal of today's build is just to meet our dye needs now, I think so. that we should build his cactus farm a little higher up here, so maybe we should raise the land like two blocks so we can see it and then I need to call to find out how to get up here hmm, maybe we'll cut down these trees and put in a road, yeah, maybe something like that and now we have nothing but what I think, I think it's okay, I know it's a way.

I laid a path up the hill to our construction site. We will be building here today. Now it's time for chess. We will start our build with a double chest that will stick out. I think down the road, maybe right there, that should be good. Now we're sticking it out like this because I want this build to be symmetrical. Now today's construction will be incorporated, of course, obviously. sandstone, some orange terracotta and sand and actually some smooth stone slabs and just smooth stone in general. Now, to start, we need a double chest with a hopper that goes into it, something like that now just because I'll be able to see. under this we're going to do that and we're going to do that as well to make sure everything looks good now that it's built, so I think what I'd like to do is create sections with an orange stripe showing through. maybe we have orange there and I guess we could put orange there too, so we could do like a post or a beam, then we can go one, two, three, maybe and then do another one, then we could do the corner and move it. over maybe one block one more block down so we have room for this of course okay let's try that again here we go we have beams there then we have a section of three then we make another beam then there will be a , then we have a corner.

Okay, it's going to turn and then we can go this way and then do another beam that goes up right there and then I guess this would be orange going back up the hill, we can probably get to the end of the strip there, which means I need to repeat all of this in this side of the bill just to make sure everything is symmetrical and eventually I will definitely end up extending the path there and to the zombie farm that we still need to make this fish farm that we all have. that kind of thing, but not today, so here we go, we have something like that, then maybe we could take our beams and go up a little bit higher with them, so maybe we go, I don't know, like two blocks up each one and each beam could be cold and then we could probably go in with some ladders to keep the construction up and keep the water that we're going to put here soon into this thing and we need a way to go up so here we go okay now we have ladders like That one, that's good, they'll probably continue back to where I need you, that could be it, now we need these smooth stone blocks because in the front we'll have like a water ditch. that moves everything to the middle and then in the rest of this construction we will have.

I think I put up a platform where our other water stream is going to move everything into the front water stream and this gets us almost to the point of talking about how to grow cacti, so let me fill this in a little bit and by the way, I'm not going to spend money in the middle and induce the stone slabs like, what do you mean? I would never spend money on construction, no I never would. never do something like this this is a mockup and obviously I will use solid blocks off camera. I think hmm, completely off topic, off topic here.

I'm wondering if I can make SIL terraform 2 not so steep, but I'd like to not have to put up some sort of big barrier and if I could terraform this that would be awesome. I think I can do it. I think I did it. I think I did it. Oh, this is amazing, this is, this is. absolutely amazing, no, not that amazing, just a hill, you say, okay, thank you sir. positive or miss positive uh huh hmm on the back wall I still have this weird space so maybe you know what maybe I can use the fancy stone bricks you know like the ones with vine faces to make something that looks cool how ? you make those, do you need just this?

Yeah, I guess we just need that nowadays, call me old-fashioned, but I remember combining slabs or something to make them. Don't know. I think that's the way you used to do it, maybe we could. do this in the back I really don't know I don't know for now it's okay so I have a full inventory so I grow cacti how is this all going to work? To start, we'll put water on this platform here and let it go to the front to move the cacti that fall from this farm to the front and then we'll have more water currents moving everything towards the middle like this, so that's all we love of the collection we have to make.

For now, growing the cactus itself is a little complicated, but it's also not that difficult once you figure out what you're doing, so get started, go ahead, build two blocks, and then place a slab on top. half of the top half of the second block, after that you will need once and then after the sand you will need to build up some place for the temporary prandium blocks and then place another slab again on the top F of the second block . Now remove the temporary blocks and place the cactus right on top of the sand and voila, it will technically be an automatic cactus farm again.

Be sure to elevate this block above the ground so it has room for water to flow. flows below this now there is something you should definitely know about this method now what you should know is that in all honesty it is not the best, you will make quite a few losses when building a cactus farm like this and that is because look at this game, delete here we turn 360 like this and then we drop a cactus and boom it disappears so yeah cacti have a tendency to break items and that means they have a tendency to break over and over again and I think that's better.

Explain that I should actually explain how this farm works, so the cactus can't be placed next to a block that is solid, if that makes sense, it means that as soon as the cactus grows, it will break because there is a slab right next door and the cactus just doesn't. They don't work like that, they can't be right next to a block like that, once the cactus grows and breaks it will fall as an item to the side or sometimes up, sometimes that cactus item will actually land directly on the cactus. it breaks and disappears, I hope it all makes sense, but yeah, basically the cactus and the submarine destroy themselves and we, the

play

ers, end up not having any cactus every now and then, it's a sad state of reality, but It is what it is, how can it?

It's not easy, the best thing you can do to improve the rates of your cactus farm is to make it bigger. Now this cactus farm won't end up being very big, we won't. doing like some kind of crazy huge construction or something, we're just making a cactus farm that will provide us with enough green dye for now. Eventually I would love to build some kind of mega cactus farm, but that's not the case right now. some free time in the future that's probably not too far away, but it's definitely not today, so basically now I'm just going to stack this up over and over again and fill up this whole area of ​​the deck that I've prepared for.

We ourselves will end up with seven rows of four, so there will be a total of 28 plants within this farm, which is not bad. We should be able to get enough of this stuff alone to cover our dye needs again. For now, this process is honestly pretty. Repetitive, just keep putting the same thing over and over again. The most important thing that I really need to emphasize because I have made this mistake many times is to make sure you place the blocks high enough for the water to actually reach. It's like through this thing below, but look how fast I can build this cactus farm.

You are about to be surprised. Your mind is going to be blown, so you better take a seat. Look at this. Don't know. It's pretty impressive. There is no editing. cheats involved in nothing at all, that has to be a world record for speed of building cactus farms in Minecraft 1.14. It has to be. I don't know, you check the stats, but I think it was pretty quick, so now we have all our platforms. and that means we need to have the rest of the cactus, so luckily this is a farm that we can partially start on and eventually this farm will supply itself with the other cactus that is needed to completely finish the build now I need to find something for the edges there and that's where I was thinking maybe something with terracotta like yellow terracotta over here, but I don't know at the same time how he's going to be cool, what do we do?

I think from here, I mean, yeah, actually that's not bad, we have orange and yellow, so they're two different colors, but I don't think that's necessarily a problem. Don't know. I think we'll have to put it in and just. Unfortunately, we can't make glass there. I would be doing glass or even walls or something like that, but water would be a problem, we would have like a dry area, you know Landreth, right there I did like a panel like I hope you can imagine because I can't show it to you, so now let's move on andlet's put water in the back like this and then we need more.

Where is there more water there and I'm leaving? The lava pit still, by the way, guys, I need something for it, but I definitely want to leave it, yeah, the water goes from the back to the front and finally the water source is there and one more water source to here. to finish everything off, so now the water moves right in the middle and stays there, but actually it's okay, we could fix it by putting up a sign and you know, I'm in a sign mood, so let's go ahead and put up the sign just because why not? to make sure everything is good and that's all you really need to do to build a cactus farm.

This will work, but we just have to wait for it to really get going and then plant all of this to see some decent rights even because again this is going to have some losses. I want to make it clear that this design is not lossless or anything like that. We will lose cacti in the construction, which is a sad and sad moment for the player, but we have some finishing touches we need to make. We definitely need some walls in the front. I wanted to see if there was a smooth sandstone wall. I couldn't. Remember or I cut sandstone, excuse me, but this wall will definitely do, I think it will look great in the construction and then finally, we'll need maybe some vine faces on the front.

The creeper faces are really cool. Oh, the water flows wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. bad, bad for me, I've broken the count, do the right thing, the sheer speed of my peak, it's just good, oh boy, I'm a wrongdoer, I'm sorry, please don't kick me, but here we go, now we have a cactus farm behind a tree farm and I think it's a good location for it, but the other thing I'm wondering and only time can tell is if this will be good enough for cacti to be thrown all the way to this ledge and this ledge walk I don't know if that will be the case, hopefully not, it could be a problem, we just hope, we'll just hope that that's not the case here, so my only job now at this point is to get out From this place I was stuck in there we go and then we wait.

I need to wait for more cacti to grow so I can then replant the cacti and yes, have this whole farm nice and planted. at the end of the

episode

, so I think I'm honestly just going to be slacking off, there's not much else I need to do right now, maybe I could go and check on my farms, but now there's screaming, but there's just no. Too much I have to do right now, so I'll be back in a few minutes and not long after, we're officially ready to go. Oh yeah, yeah, I was guessing, I thought it was about time, but here's the finale. cactus placed on the pen and then we have an extra one to spare now, unfortunately, I've noticed that every once in a while the cactus actually lands on the edge, which is a problem technically, so if you were building this you should probably let the water comes out. one further away or put solid walls up if you had solid walls past the cactus, obviously no cactus will land, you know the walls.

I don't know why I say such weird things sometimes, but the other thing you should probably do is The block is generated on top of your blocks like I did. I made buttons so nothing appears up there and now we can be a happy, happy crafter. Now I did a bit of detailing along the way. I can't do too much though because the lava will burn things and with that I think we're almost done with today's build, so let's do two things, update the map to the comment of the day and save the cactus to our storage.

Eventually there will be three cacti. I have infinite cactus but this map you come with me updated boom, ready and now we take a look at it and I think we will do a map

episode

soon guys, I would like to put a better wall here like somewhere else and I see a person, we have a head just there, then we have arms, legs and I guess I don't know what that is, yeah, cactus, fart, well, today's comment of the day is from baat 650, the comment says: Hey man, when If you are transporting villagers over land, you should use a water bucket to put water on the ground and then your boat will be able to move faster in the water and that is absolutely great.

I didn't think about that when we were transporting the villagers, I don't think. We'll have to keep doing it right, actually, I lied, we have one more big hauling thing for a project coming up soon, but yeah, I didn't even think about that, we could have been dumping water and just paddling like when we did it. relocate again I decided that was a good way to put it, Savannah villagers, yeah, I don't know, I didn't think about that good decision, baht, thank you very much. I would like to send a special photo and a special thank you to Nev. today, thank you for your support, but one more thing I would like to mention at the end of the episode is the villager breeder, so I came here to check it out, make sure everything is working well and, surprise, surprise, no surprise, actually , things.

They are working wonderfully, the villager breeder is absolutely working, no baby at the moment. I need to fix some dirt inside the thing, but it definitely still works. I wanted to mention that and then I wanted to mention the pyramid here. The villagers inside this thing are fine, the breeder is definitely working. I watched the villagers for a while and there was no sign of anger so I don't know we'll get back to that villager routine very very soon maybe next episode but for now thank you very much for watching my name is waddles leave a like it leave a subscription leave a notification bell on and waddles march grab your gamer gear it's fresh and fresh below and support me and if you want to support me each and every month, you either buy products every month or make a donation in Patreon.
