Talk:Tutorials/Automatic Farming

All these farms are designed to farm just one type of plant. Could there be a section on farms that are for multiple types of plants plants? I made one myself that i was goin to put up but am currently updating it to include cocoa and be less resorce intensive. It is automatic but was wondering weather it should go in here or make a new all-in-one farm cagtagory. Any opinios? Also does anyone else have designs that would work with multiple plants in the one farm? Mabey you could help expand the page im thinking of making. (pikime)

A lot of space
I like to thinker and I like electronics a lot, but I don't like making inventions in this game because all of them use a lot of space and seem kind of cumbersome, I feel silly making them, I mean put a serie of five blocks separated one block between them and then some red dust above, I can do the same with a couple of wires in real life and I don't have to make a house just just to build a radio, I wish they put some integrated circuits or some multy wire conductors, that would be good. Besides inventions are not mobable, what about an automatic excavator?. --Namredne 04:26, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
 * There are mods that add much more depth to Redstone -- looking at the list, Redpower2 sounds like just what you're looking for. It's even got a 6502 emulator block.  --Mental Mouse 04:30, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

Hoppers
Hoppers seem to be specifically designed for automatic collection, almost as if they wanted us to use them for farming. Recommend editing to reflect the new possibilities for compact, non time-sensitive farms. Daylight Detectors also open up a new world of daily-operating automatic farms, particularly on a circuit with pistons. 71.30.49.197 01:26, 23 March 2013 (UTC)25K1||3D4K1||5 71.30.49.197 01:28, 23 March 2013 (UTC)

Automated Tree-Farm
Actually there is such a machine wich breakes the trees without explosives and without the player breaking it. Feel free to watch this video:
