Talk:Melon

Question
Where does it mention melon? EDIT: Wait, wrong page. Drenay 21:17, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

Why is Melon on the items page? If it grows, then it should be a block. Pumpkins are blocks, right?Ajc 1254 12:36, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

Jeb recently said on twitter melons will never come... http://twitter.com/#!/jeb_/status/93343876026343424 C ali nou - talk × contribs » 13:22, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

He said we aren't going to see a screen shot, not their not going to make melons. Honestly can anyone understand context on this site?Discount Flunky 13:30, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

How stupid are you people? Seriously, context people!Ajc 1254 00:22, 21 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Why do I get the feeling that Jeb took that as a pun? "Can we see the melons?" meaning breasts... And thus Jeb saying "NO!" I may be too perverted, but that might explain it too... :P | TheKax |   Talk   09:54, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh wow. Just wow. I told my most pervy friends about that and they didn't say anything.Ajc 1254 12:08, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
 * You must have heard of word melons being used for calling breasts... Just saying o_O | TheKax |   Talk   13:28, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

Read the page for once, guys. "Markus Persson: We've added melons, and made both melons and pumpkins farmable so you can grow them." --Dbdii407 16:49, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

Move page
Can someone rename this page to "Melon (Block)", Melon Seeds to "Melon (Seed)", and Melon Slices to "Melon (Slice)"? Afterwards, create a page named "Melon (Disambiguation)" to link to these 3 new pages? Cool12309(T 03:52, 28 August 2011 (UTC)


 * Please no, not until the discussion at Minecraft Wiki talk:Community portal is resolved. We should be trying to move away from these pointless dabtext-styled pagenames, not further encourage them. 「 ダイノ ガイ 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 13:28, 28 August 2011 (UTC)

Texture
The textures for the melon block and the melon item don't make much sense. The item is a slice of water melon while the melon block looks like a completely different kind of melon like a cantaloupe or something. Is it possible that the texture we think goes with melon block is really for something else?Discount Flunky 05:51, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't think that there would be any other kind of melon block in texture which jeb published. Is this what you've thought it will look alike? Additionally, Melon is confirmed already. Tom.K 06:00, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

Yes that's what I thought it would look, because that's what the item looks like. The item has a green peel while the block has a yellow peel. How does that add up?Discount Flunky 19:25, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Um, are you kinda blind :X ? Block has green peel still. Tom.K 19:41, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

What the hell are you talking about? The picture on the wiki and the official texture list are clearly yellow.Discount Flunky 20:52, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 * How it adds up? It's minecraft. Cool12309(T 22:13, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 * --HexZyle 02:15, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

So it's logical to plant a yellow melon that turns green when you harvest it? That's not even logical for Minecraft standards.Discount Flunky 02:39, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Neither is saplings instantly spawning into trees and suffocating you in the process --HexZyle 03:42, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

No that's not really a valid argument. That is logical for Minecraft standards. Having your melon block like like a yellow log while having the item it spawns be a stereotypical water melon slice isn't. There just too contradictory. Either they make the melon block green or the item yellow.Discount Flunky 03:56, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Melon Stems
From what I've seen so far, each melon stem will only grow ONE melon. sat with a patch of several stems idle for several hours, and each stem had only produced a single melon, despite having plenty of growing space. 71.58.156.99 17:15, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

Um i dont woant to be rude but do more research. I have a melon patch with 2 mature stems and more stems growing and the mature stems have produced at least 3 melons each. Bob123412 00:04, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

Efficiency
This article is very ambiguous, claiming a design that produces the best possible results followed with another alternate design claiming to produce better results. If someone could clear up which design is actually the msot efficient that would be great. Thanks. 76.205.124.141 23:39, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
