How to Plant Watermelon in Minecraft: A Simple Guide
Last updated
Ever wondered how you can grow your own juicy watermelons in the vast world of Minecraft? Well, you’re in the right spot! Today, we’re diving into the steps you need to follow to plant watermelon in Minecraft.
So, how do you plant watermelon in Minecraft? Let’s get our gardening gloves on and find out!
Getting Started with Watermelon Farming
First things first, you need watermelon seeds. You can find these by exploring the world and looting chests in dungeons, mineshafts, or fortresses. If you’re lucky, you might stumble upon a watermelon slice in a jungle biome. Break it down, and voila! You have your seeds.
Once you’ve got your seeds, you’re ready for the fun part – planting! Choose a nice spot near water, or create an irrigation system with a bucket. Hoe the ground, and then right-click (or tap) with the watermelon seeds in your hand to plant them in the tilled soil.
Grow and Harvest Your Watermelons
Watermelon plants need some space to grow because they’ll produce a stem that spreads to adjacent blocks. Make sure to leave some empty blocks around your planted seeds for the watermelons to grow into. Keep an eye on them, and soon you’ll see a fully grown watermelon ready for you to harvest.
Hit the watermelon block to collect watermelon slices, which you can eat for a quick hunger fix or save to plant more watermelons. Remember, each watermelon slice can craft more seeds, making your farm even bigger!
