You can just put a mine cart hopper under the original design with like one powered rail to make it go back and forth so all sugar cane is harvested. You can also use just one observer anyway and it will still work. Way cheaper than getting all the gold for 20 powered rails.

To save heavily on glass, you can start the farm with only the inner row of 40 (where the sugar cane is planted). When you expand, build another inner row exactly like the first one next to it and make sure the cart visits the second row as well. Rerouting can be done from the outside, no need to go under it again.

And as others have mentioned, mud and hoppers make it easier for item collection now. But you do have a point, it does use a lot of observers, making it hard to upscale. So props for not only making a cheaper design, but one that utilizes the underloved daylight detectors too

I think I use the same system as you. It's the most efficient for production rates per plant but it does take up more space and I have wondered if I'd be better off with more plants rather than higher efficiency per plant. Realistically though, I'm unlikely to change my design. I think the daylight sensor is not that efficient because I believe the average growth cycle is 20 minutes per sugar cane growth cycle which could interfere with the production rate significantly. I'm not sure on the growth rate though.

You're lying to people by saying that the original design has near 50% sugar cane wastage. In reality, with that farm, only one of the sugar cane plots would ever get 3 blocks tall before all of them are broken at the second block. But you had yours prebuilt with all of them 3 tall when you broke them. It's almost impossible that all of the sugar canes would grow to 3 tall at exactly the same tick, in order to create that much wastage. The real amount of sugar cane wasted by that farm in practise is 1/2x where x is your total number of sugar cane plots, as its only the 1 piece of sugar cane that got to 3 tall first that is actually wasted.

I do agree with some folks in making it one level deeper cause my cart got stuck, and some of the tracks were not covering all of the center. I mean, once you get the basics down the rest is easy peasy. Thank you for sharing!

I've been messing with both of these farms recently actually. Definitely going to take some inspiration from what you've done. - I'm keeping sugar cane and bamboo separate. Separate item collection too. - I'm going to use ilmamgo's Minecart collection that breaks the minecart for reduced entities. - Might use an etho hopper clock instead of a daylight sensor but that does make it pretty easy

It’s an interesting design and uses less observers if that’s what your after. But you could have just taken the first design, planted it on dirt blocks and ran a hopper mine set under the dirt to collect the sugar/bamboo that collects on top. And on top of that it has the same inefficiency that I see in the normal building of the farm, breaking all at once before it is all grown. With just a slight tweak that makes the original farm 2 deeper you can make them fire off each individual pistons so you get the most efficiency for your sugarcane. Granted it still uses an observer per sugarcane/bamboo and adds a hopper minecart system to the original design. So it’s really what you are looking for in the build.

@@BardedWyrm well I think it depends who you are. I am one who tries to min max as much as possible. The person who will build a farm on the surface and spend a week going through caves with torches or building a farm over the ocean or in the air. I generally play on a server and to keep lag down you have to think about efficiency as much as possible since building too much redstone will lag the server (and I love redstone) so we tend to limit farms. 1 iron farm, 1 sugar can farm, 1 general mob farm, etc. and for 4-6 people that slight difference can make a huge difference long term. But if you are playing solo or have your own farms it probably won’t make as big of a difference. Edit: so I wanted to give an example. Let’s say for 24 hours of play produces 20 stacks. Pick up rates bring cutting in half are a huge difference (from not having a minecart under it.) And a rough estimate of 10% to pistons breaking early (I'll explain that a little later on) Meaning if you normally would get 20 stacks (then you lose even %10 to the pistons) 20-2=18 (Then take half of the original number since it isn’t getting picked up equaling 10 stacks) and that leaves you at 8 stacks out of the possible 20 stacks during the same period of time whether thats 2 hours or 40 hours that is a big loss. Especially if you are on a server. Edit 2: I just looked up the rates and all I can see is that sugarcane tends to grow at a rate of about 1 every 18 minutes (Java) and 54 minutes (Bedrock) minutes and if you break it at the second level it resets the time for growth. So you could lose anywhere from a 1 second growth to 18 minutes (or 54 minute on bedrock) So there is a big possibility for loss in growth and time. Seeing as it only takes a single extra building block and a single redstone dust for every second sugarcane in the row to fix. It’s a cheap thing to fix. 100% worth it in my opinion.

I made the basic design in my world, but noticed it wasn't harvesting that quickly. I was better off farming bones at a spawner, and micro farming sugarcane. Then, one day, I just decided to rip off all observers, and attach a single one to a daylight detector, because I needed extra observers for another project immediately. The farm works splendid, since the pistons trigger 15+ times in daytime, so absolutely no sugarcane gets to grow to 3 blocks high. I have currently replaced half the sugarcane with bamboo.

The only change to the rails is that the end is one shorter and loops back around to the rear of the farm instead of returning to the collection area and the new end goes that one extra block to return. If you're expanding the farm later, you only have to break that one rail.

I could see this being more useful on smaller sugarcane farms, especially if you wanted to tuck one into a space on a very specific build- like a ship or a house that has a dead space you want to make more productive. The hopper and mud block design would be more compact, and would also be silent, which might be something you want in a build that's more about aesthetics than raw productivity. Also would be good if you had an iron farm or were near a mountain biome but didn't have a lot of gold. All very specific, but minecraft is about building how you want and not just raw production.

Got to the water logged slabs and the water went right through and washed all my tracks away. I used birch since thats what I had on hand. I’m also playing on bedrock, is there a better option? UPDATE: so in bedrock it seems like moss blocks aren’t something that work for sugar cane, so I just used normal dirt along the sides. I also dropped the water to a full block by putting cobblestone down between all the tracks and getting rid of the slabs all together.

3:35 You could use mud…you can grow both sugarcane and bamboo on it, you can put hoppers directly under them and items can be collected through the mud, and that removes the need for hopper minecarts. It would mean more hoppers, sure, but it would be quite a bit quieter.

thank you for explaining this so well, I built one and it works perfectly!

I like the idea of using the varying outputs from a day/night detector as a long-delay observer clock which doesn't screw up from chunk loading. That's smart stuff and I'd consider it the star of the show here, to the point that it should find use in other types of contraptions as well. Flood system for a mob spawner comes to mind. I think the collection system is a bit over-engineered, though. Since every component of a hopper is renewable and farmable, I figure it's easier to just put the minecart rails directly on top of a hopper chain, so the hopper minecart will just immediately pass everything it collects into the chain below and never need to stop. It's also cheaper to power redstone objects like powered rails by using a lever, though I guess redstone blocks aren't terribly expensive to begin with. I'm just an absolute penny pincher when it comes to stuff like that.

Downside is that hoppers create lag, I'd argue

@atomkuehne

Yeah, hoppers are farmable, but they do create lag without a solid block above them. This is an issue for people with PCs on the lower end or on multiplayer servers. The line of hoppers also won't add anything to the system, save for absolutely massive systems that the minecart would have trouble picking up amd depositing everything before the next cycle, but again the lag issue becomes compounded when the size increases. If this system used mud blocks instead of the other blocks that sugarcane and bamboo can grow on, you can skip the minecart track all together. Since mud isn't a full block hoppers can pull through them, but still provides the aforementioned hopper lag. However, it's weird considering how much cheaper a hopper minecart is compared to lines of hoppers since you seem to care about reducing redstone costs (redstone block vs lever) but ignore the iron costs because it's farmable. Every single component is farmable: cobblestone from cobble generators, iron from golem farms, wood from tree farms, gold from zombified piglin farms, quartz from piglin bartering farms (can use gold from zombified piglin farm), and redstone from witch farms (which also provides sticks).

I like to beef up the detector with a comp in substract mode that triggers the farm and the minecart once a day. You have a loss as some of the sugar will wait fully grown. But it makes a neat farm design that can be placed close to your main base and wont annoy you with frequent triggers. I use the same daylight detector for 64 sugar, bambo and dripstone.

That's so cool! I didn't realize that light sensors could trigger observers, though it makes sense because their redstone signal power changes depending on the light level.

Ive done a variation of this in a creative world using the new mud blocks and hoppers since minecart noises drive me up the wall. I definitely say doing this on a survival world is much more economical using your way since iron as a resource can be difficult to acquire in some areas.

I've now come back to this video several times to build this farm. Thanks so much for an awesome video!

Thanks for the video. I always tend to make such farms (including Kelp) based on timings rather than observers.

as a very traditional minecraft player, i was skeptical about giving up the usual sugarcane farm design at first, but this is just so much better!

This was awesome, I've never had luck with automatic farms and this worked first try. Thank you

Nice design. One thing I did on my farm, since our server wants us to be able to turn off our farms for lag, is to have it when the pistons trigger it launches the minecart. The cart just sits idle most of the time. Less noise and lag that way.

Thank you for the video! For some reason, even though my observer and daylight detector are in the center, the pistons at either far end of the farm wont activate. I made it the same size as you did. Any ideas?

I have started building mine on mud instead of moss blocks and just using a hopper chain underneath the mud instead of a minecart collection system. But for bigger designs like this I'd probably go for the minecart too.

Underrated Video, despite almost 2mil. Honestly one of the best and most reliable farms whilst not looking comically ass

Thank you so much, I’ve tried so many farms and this one is the one. I don’t lose any sugarcane and it’s pretty fast!!! Amazing ❤

I tested this vs the original style with hopper minecarts added to it and the old style was slightly better. Tested it for 72 hours with 256 growing slots each and got 47 more sugarcane. I think that the constant obstruction above the plant lowers the growth chance by removing a couple game ticks every time

@BombShot

What was the total items for each farm? At 72 hours with 256 slots 47 seems more than possible to be within the realm of random chance based error, as even with some of the most efficient farms randomness on ticks can change rates. This genuinely seems like they're about the same. Judging on normal rates I get with smaller farms I'd assume that can't be more than a 10% differenced between the 2 farms, as 500 per hour is easily achievable below your described builds, and even large scale 546 slot slime based sugar can farms can have a variance of about 5-10%.

Very nice video and cool design. I just wanted to point out that it isn't necessary to put dust on top of all pistons. We could, for example, remove the outer redstone dust lines (the ones on top of the pistons facing the outer glass walls) and they would still fire together with the directly powered ones. The reason for that is quasi-conectivity, btw. So by doing that we not only cut in half the cost in redstone dust but most importantly we reduce significantly the lag produced by the farm, specially if we choose to build a large scale one.

i feel like everyone's forgetting that you can plant sugar cane on mud blocks (with a water source next to it ofc) and have hoppers be directly underneath the mud block. Because the block is slightly "shorter" than a regular block, any sugar cane that's knocked off will be picked up by the hopper system, thus saving space and preventing the noise you'd get from the minecart system

@viviansusername

Rails are 6 iron for 16 rails, or 6 gold per 6 powered rails. Placing hoppers like that would need 80 hoppers for this farm, which would need 6 1/4 stacks of iron, compared to this farm, which uses 56 iron (for just the collection, it's 136 total, hopper/mud would need 7 1/2 stacks). Plus hopper lag exists, but the minecart is never broken/stopped in this system and hopper lag is minimal enough, so that probably wasn't much of a consideration. I'd personally go with hoppers (and lock them!), because an iron farm is one of the first things I make in a new world, but not everyone plays like that.

You merge the collection mechanic of this farm with the usual farm. That way you still get the growth based harvest without the uncollected materials. Using light detectors is a creative way, but it can lower the maximum output if the plants grow faster than the light changes. Also for bamboo the flying machine harvester is much more fun.

I like this design, I like being able to see how to make little changes to my redstone to make it more efficient! TY

This looks great! I've been meaning to get around to making a sugarcane farm, so maybe this is a sign that I should actually make that happen. I think I would like to try trading out the redstone blocks for something that uses less resources. (I probably have enough redstone, but I'm stingy lol) Maybe I could use a lever on the bottom of those blocks instead? It will be fun to experiment with. I think the best part of a following a tutorial is tweaking the design just a bit to make it your own.

I love automated farms, but unless I _really_ want to save space, for sugarcane, I always go with manual harvesting. It's just so satisfying to sprint down rows of it, just holding left click, and collecting stack after stack of the stuff ☺

I’ve always wondered why people didn’t put the water on the other side under the block. It stops wasting and if you use mud and a hopper chain it’s even faster. Basically the same design works with bamboo and kelp as well

Thanks for this I’ll make sure to build this once I get the supplies

Good stuff, tho addion of mud to the game fixes the initial designs flaws completely, as sugarcane can grow on mud and hoppers can collect trough mud removing the need for a water stream

Hopper minecarts can pick up items through solid blocks, so dirt or sand will work just as fine for sugar canes. The only fear is bamboo items landing on themselves.

You don't have to waterlog every slab if you place solid blocks between the rails and skip the slabs. Then just place water every 10 blocks or so, flowing water is enough for sugarcane.

I love the way you explain things, nice and simple, no nonsense.

I remember my first survival sugarcane farm being ilmango's zero-tick sugar cane printer, and when that was patched I just turned it into a simple auto harvesting farm by removing the activation swich that would have toggled the zero-tick mechanism

The only thing I found annoying with using waterlogged blocks instead of using a solid block for the base of the water is that if you were to break any of the border blocks it would cause a chain reaction of the water physics from the waterlogged blocks to start pouring water downward breaking all of the rails and ruining the entire build.

Very nice, I never used observers in my farm, but used a sunlight detector with comparators so it triggers the pistons twice a day, when the sun rises or sets. I added a switch to this circuit so I can turn the farm off if I have too much production. I still use the water current to transport the sugar cane, but I don't lose any because I limited it's height to 2 blocks and used 2 pistons inline, so they push the sugarcane further, preventing it to fall on the ground instead on the water. This way I achieved zero loss at collection.

Use a hopper redstone clock instead of the daylight detectors for an activation system you can fine tune to further minimize loss from canes/baboos that grew to max size.

So in short: Sugarcane Farms in Minecraft are, in fact, NOT wrong. They're just very cheap and easy to build. If you make it more expensive and complicated, you of course can make a better one. But that doesn't invalidate the easier and imho cheaper design at all.

Two quick notes. The first is that as long as you leave a one block gap everywhere around where the minecart will travel, you could use half as many powered rails if not less and it'd still work. The second is that you don't need redstone blocks to power the rails. You can use a redstone torch underneath the block that the rail is sitting on.

Even pistons are pretty expensive when you have one per plant. I'd prefer some sort of flying machine build that mows them all down. I've seen these elsewhere on youtube but the farms themselves are impractically huge. I have no experience with flying machines yet so I don't know how to build one so that it goes back and forth.

You can skip the daylight detector and use a sculk sensor to detect the noise these make when growing which can in turn be used to fire off the signal to the observer and trigger the pistons.

As it was pointed out already, the "normal" farm isn't at all that inefficient, since the only 3 tall sugarcane would be the one that activated the pistons and thus the only one going to waste. But at the same time, this is surely a great way to do a similar farm with less resources, and I loved the creativity with the observer and the daylight sensor! I didnt do the math but with 30 activations per day/night cycle, i dont think many sugarcanes would be wasted by reaching more that 3 blocks tall, and even this is easily fixable by just raising the roof. Just another "hmm actually" moment: only one daylight sensor is enough, since when the day configuration reaches 0 output, the night one reaches 15 at the same time, and they update at almost the same time, so the night time will always be lacking updates. Regardless of that, great concept!
