And at the end of the day you are not saving that many resources. In general, trying to optimize Torches this way creates an irregular shape that is not very efficient. But if you want to have a 2 dimensions farm, you would encounter the following problem:Īs you can see it would inevitably form a gap. This option is perfect if you are only taking care of rows of blocks. This would put 10 (not 9) blocks between each Torch: This way your farm won’t have any light issue.īefore we continue there’s something worth saying: you may think that you should set Torches in a way that makes you not waste any level 9 block provided by them. In the example I only used 4 Torches, but you can use this pattern more times to cover every area you want. The same is true for the top and the bottom ones. 9 blocks between each Torch Light level of the whole areaĪs you can see the left and the right Torches (which have a light level of 14) have 9 blocks between them. In order to have a light level of 9 in all the area, you will need to put your Torches 9 blocks away from each other. Obviously during the day all your crops will grow, thanks to the daily light level of 15, but you’ll have to obtain a light level of 9 on all your farm if you want them to grow overnight as well. Note that other crops don’t require light at all, so mind the light level only for the crops mentioned here. Potatoes, Wheat, Carrots, Beetrots, Melons or Pumpkins need a light level of 9 or more to grow. Since the light level changes on the Y axis, if you place your Torches at eye-level you will have to consider a starting light level of 13 on the block below your Torch, instead of 14. Note: the Torch patterns below are made assuming that Torches will be on the ground.
