This guide will tell you how to set up a Kelp XP/BONEMEAL Farm in Minecraft.
Item List:
You’d need the following items:
1 Lever
1 Redstone Repeater
3 Redstone Torches
7 Redstone Dust
2 Sticky Pistons
6 Hoppers
2 Smokers (For normal kelp farm)
2 Composters
1 Chest
4 Sand
2 Trapdoors
4 Glass Panes
Follow these steps to make the farm:
Step 1: This farm has to be built in a chunk. If you build it on a chunk border, it won’t work.
Step 2: Let’s make a timer for this build.
Step 3: The repeater has to face this way.
Step 4: Your timer should work now. To stop the timer, you can flick the lever.
Step 5: Place three blocks right here.
Step 6: Place Redstone on these blocks.
Step 7: Place sticky pistons facing this way next to the Redstone.
Step 8: You can make this build longer if you want, simply extend the Piston/Redstone signal.
Step 9: Just make sure the whole build is within one chunk.
Step 10: Only 2 sticky pistons have been used for this build.
Step 11: Place 2 blocks in front of the pistons.
Step 12: Place sand on these positions.
Step 13: Time to make your storage system!
Step 14: The Hoppers have to be connected correctly.
Step 15: Place smokers or composters depending on your use.
Step 16: Place your hoppers into the composter/smoker and place 2 other hoppers in those hoppers.
Step 17: Good Job! Now place blocks in these positions.
Step 18: Go to the front and build 2 pillars right here that is 3 blocks high and connect the top.
Step 19: Place glass panes like this.
Step 20: The glass panes above the hoopers will make sure all the kelp gets picked up.
Step 21: Go to the back.
Step 22: Go to this side of the build and break this block.
Step 23: Place a Redstone torch on that block. It should turn off.
Step 24: Place the block with another Redstone torch on the top.
Step 25: Stand on the sand and make a wall like this.
Step 26: Place two pistons facing this way.
Step 27: Place two blocks right here and place 2 Redstone on top of these blocks.
Step 28: Make a wall.
Step 29: Also place two blocks on top of the pistons.
Step 30: Place trapdoors facing this way, make sure they are opened.
Step 31: Go to the side and break this block at the Redstone torch.
Step 32: Extend 3 Redstone like this.
Step 33: Place two pieces of water on top of the sand, and make sure you don’t water log the pistons.
Step 34: Also place two water on the trapdoor, you’ll have to waterlog them.
Step 35: Place kelp on each sand.
Step 36: Flick the lever and the machine should work! If not, you built it wrong, you can place a detailed comment for help.
Step 37: If you used smokers, you can convert the kelp into dried kelp blocks.
Step 38: You can use these for fuel for unlimited burns!
Step 39: By adding the levers, you can get the kelp/XP out of the farm.
Step 40: To turn this kelp farm into a bonemeal farm, you have to replace the smokers with composters.
Step 41: Turn the farm on, and all the kelp will be converted to bonemeal.
