Cactus Farm in SB (Maybe a Guide)

Recommended Posts

 Cactus farm is a very good starting farms for starters in skyblock, and then followed by IronGolem farm (which is not recommended to make atm because of low spawn rate)

The randomtickspeed is different than your normal singleplayer's randomtickSpeed, therefore cactus grows faster in this server. But to get 10k cactus, you will need a certain amount of cactus in your farm.

According to minecraft gamepedia, a cactus grow with an average of 18minutes. Therefore, to get 1 cactus per minute, you will need 18 cactus in your farm: and 1 stack of cactus for 64 minutes. 1 cactus per second need 18*60 = 1080 cactus in your farm.

At one cactus per second , you fill one slot of a dub every 64 seconds, to fill an entire dub it would take 54(slot of dub chest) *64= 3456 seconds or 57.6 minutes, roughly 10k per hour. How much cactus would be needed to make 10k per minute? Per second?

To get 10k/minute, if we round 57.6 up to 60 , then we can multiply 1080*60 =64,800 cactus 

Then just multiply 64,800*60= 3,888,000 cactus to get 10k per second. 

Afking one chunk with every alternate block as cactus then divided by 2 for the blanks rows needed for cactus to fall. A chunk is 16*16*256=65,536 blocks dividing it by 2 for alternate blocks and 2 again for the rows gets 65,536/4 =16384 , enough to get roughly 10k cactus every 4 minutes for a whole chunk cactus farm, 4 chunks needed for around 10k a minute and 240 chunk cactus farm (60*4) for 10k per second

This calculation is not originally from me but i would like to share this to everybody, hope it will help in your island. Source: https://desteria.com/community/threads/cactus-farm-math.86084/

Math is fun, but too much is torturing.

This is very helpful altho alot of players do not know how to make a cactus farm and what is the best method of making a cactus farm (chunks or pillars).

If you could expand on this theory more it would help alot of new players.

Regards ❤️
