Small enough to harvest completely from the ground.Consistently sized, slightly larger than small oak trees.Leaves always appear two or more blocks above ground, making harvesting a little quicker and easier.Large oak trees can be extremely tricky and tedious to fully harvest.Commonly the leaves start less than two blocks above ground, so you have to destroy them first in order to get to the log.

An oak tree within two blocks of any flower has a 5% chance to produce bee nests.Large variation between trees, ranging from four logs per tree to over forty.Small chance (0.5%) for leaves to produce apples.Matches wood in "naturally generated" structures (with some exceptions).Saplings can be found in villager chests.The smallest forms take less space than other trees, and can be grown in small spaces.Due to the possibility of large trees and their large number of leaves, they can give more saplings on average.If building or decorating with multiple wood types, having a tree farm for each is also useful. Because the efficiency difference among tree types is only slight, appearance often has priority. If building wooden structures, you may choose a specific type of wood for its texture. Azalea trees can also be fully automatically farmed without any player input using moss farms.ĭifferent kinds of trees have different wood textures. They also yield oak wood without the chance of growing a difficult to remove large oak tree. Azalea trees can be farmed for azalea and flowering azalea leaves.And much like the giant spruce trees, if you have a fast enough layout it is well worth it. The near nonexistent growth restrictions allow great freedom for automated farming. Huge fungus is only found in the nether and require a nylium block to grow on.The giant variant is difficult to automate, however, with a fast enough layout it is well worth it. The giant variant is good for time-efficient wood-quantity especially when a spiral technique is applied to harvest it. Spruce is easy to find, but is too tall for convenient harvesting, and is not especially convenient to farm.Also difficult to farm automatically, however the amount of logs per tree almost makes it viable. Acacia is ideal for space-efficient farming.The giant variant is difficult to farm automatically, however the smaller version is considerably easier to automatically farm. Jungle size and its tendency to spawn branches is ideal for mass-production of raw wood yield per tree, making it the best late game tree if provided plenty of time and space.Dark Oak grows extremely quick, has a larger average yield than oak, and is considerably more compact and safer to harvest than jungle giants.Birch grows quickly and has the most uniform height, and is ideal for automatic farming, making it the best in moderately sized fields.Oak is plentiful and convenient in compact spaces, making it the best at the beginning of the game.Also, any leaf block unconnected or too far from a block of wood decays naturally over time.īecause all eight types have different advantages and disadvantages, the best tree to choose can vary with the situation: Use of fire also destroys leaves quickly, but when used on a tree, fire also destroys much of the wood. Using shears harvests usable leaf blocks for the player to pick up and later place elsewhere. Using a hoe increases the speed of breaking leaves, with an iron hoe able to mine them instantly. Decaying oak and dark oak tree leaves also have a 1/200 chance of dropping an apple.ĭestroying leaves does not require a tool a sword is negligibly faster than bare hands but wears out the sword. When leaves are harvested, or decay naturally, they have a chance to drop a sapling of their own species, which can be planted to grow a new tree. Wood can also be smelted into charcoal, a functional, easily renewable substitute to coal. Each wood can be crafted into planks and sticks, which are used to craft tools, like a wooden pickaxe and similar wood-derived materials. The wooden blocks can be harvested for wood, without requiring tools, although an axe quickens harvesting. Tree harvesting is an essential first step for any player in Survival mode. 6.1 AFK-able advanced stripped log farm.
