Cactus farms need water? Correct me if I'm wrong... –The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bbqroast (Talk . Please sign your posts with   !
 * I think you're right with that, since cacti don't need water to grow. But most of the time water is used in automated cacti farms to collect the blocks. So i would recommend a change here.DerGraph 17:03, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Other methode for farm : place a catus over sand, and between 2 sand blocks in cross, and some water of course. It takes a day, and I experiment it on 666 seed... Achmed

Grids
It'd be nice if we could get grids showing what each level looks like. --Havvy 09:24, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Broken?
Did a recent update break the automatic harvesting of cacti? I just tried setting up a single cacti with a block adjacent to where its second block will grow into, and let it sit for two Minecraft days, and it never grew and auto-popped off. I had other cacti nearby that did grow, so enough time had definitely passed (other cacti grew from one to three blocks in that time). So has anyone gotten auto-harvesting cacti farms like this to work in 1.6.6? Or was that a "bug" that got fixed? --MidnightLightning 13:22, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

1.0.0
So, with the advent of the full game, my fully automatic cactus farm that had previously turned roughly 1000 cacti per hour has fallen to some small fraction of that. Am I the only one experiencing this?
