Space for Growth
The article does a good job explaining how much space each sapling needs above in order to grow. Don't saplings also need a certain amount of space around? -98.246.128.140 05:28, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
This sentence doesnt make any sense to me: ".. spruce can also grow on farmland, and 2×2 trees check for dirt or grass only under the northwestern-most sapling." 178.155.238.164 18:24, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
Maximum distance from a player
In 16.1, when creating a superflat creative world with a layer of oak saplings and flying up vertically, I found that the trees formed a smooth circle that didn't extend out to the full render distance, and didn't have the jagged edges we'd expect if it were based solely on chunk loadedness. So there must be a maximum distance from the nearest player, beyond which saplings don't grow. Should the article indicate what this distance is? Seahen (talk) 00:57, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
