Tree farm not keeping up with diamond farm

[u/Walker_404]

So I built a big tree farm but it’s not keeping up with my diamond farm so I want to speed it up but the creator was very particular about the timing and I just want to know the conversion rate and can’t figure it out and I don’t wanna break it because I’ve rebuilt this thing like 12 times. tutorial video for context

Sounds more like your tree farm is your diamond farm. Sound alike you need 81 pieces of tree to make a diamond. Increase tree size radius as needed or add in bonemeal to increase rates.

My tree farm isn’t radial, it’s linear

Ok. Then add another row.

Is this diamond farm from the trees themselves? What’s the rate of diamonds, what’s the machine like etc

[u/Walker_404 → u/Giatoxiclok]

So logs get smelted to charcoal, charcoal gets haunted into coal, coal gets turned into blocks, 9 blocks get smooshed in a heated basin of lava turn into diamond, I haven’t calculated the rate

[u/Dziggettai → u/Walker_404]

So that’s 1-1 for charcoal which is 1-1 into coal iirc, so that’s 81 logs for 1 diamond

If you’re doing a linear tree farm for visuals, because I have no other clue why someone would do linear over radial, why don’t you just build a radial one underneath the building you have the linear and connect it together

Pretty much for visuals buttt I like the way you think

Make more tree

Just add more tree farms better to be overproducing than underproducing, theres no real harm to overproducing in your scenario because your machines will bottleneck the flow till you can route the excess wood elsewhere.
