 * This is a talk page, is it supposed to be an article? LB 19:43, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, no. (didn't see the "Talk:" --Kumasasa 19:48, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Jack o'lanterns
As best as I can tell, jack o'lanterns (as well as sea lanterns and glowstone) continue to emit light while submerged. So will a torch when covered by a transparent block such as glass or glass pane. --Jaqque (talk) 03:51, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
 * That is correct, but how does it relate to sugar cane farming? Also, please use "Add topic", or at least include a section header. The BlobsPaper.png 04:07, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
 * \#Limitations_and_mitigation specifically mentions glowstone and sea lanterns, but omits jack o lanterns. Before I update it to include jack o'lanterns, I'd like some sort of confirmation. Later it does mention placing jack o'lanterns above water, but not below the water source. --Jaqque (talk) 07:14, 8 January 2017 (UTC)


 * The Jack o'Lantern page mentions using them as underwater light sources, so it should be fine to add that to the page. Also, using internal links (e.g., Tutorials/Sugar cane farming ) will avoid triggering the spam filters. -- Orthotopetalk 07:40, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Moving to Bamboo and sugar cane farming
. I don't think that bamboo and sugar cane farming are similar enough to warrant putting them on the same page. While some of the designs would be shared, the unique aspect of each would create confusing differences. Sugar cane, for example, requires water, can be grown with bonemeal in Bedrock, and has diffrent zero ticking methods. Bamboo on the other hand, requires light to grow, can grow taller, and can't be walked through. jahunsbe (talk) 03:11, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
