12. Smart Nether Wart Farm
What This Idea Means
Nether wart cannot be grown with bonemeal, making automation crucial. A smart nether wart farm uses observer-based detection or simple water flushing mechanisms triggered by a single button press to strip full crops instantly into storage.
How to Make It
- Layout soul sand platforms on step-down terraces or long running strips.
- Plant your nether wart along the rows.
- Place dispensers containing water buckets at the highest point of each row.
- Connect all dispensers to a single central button or tripwire detector system.
- At the base of the farm, install a running water collector lane leading straight into a chest with connected hoppers.
Tips & Variations
Variation: Because water destroys nether wart instantly without breaking the soul sand, you can combine this with an item sorter system in your brewing room for instant alchemy supply!
