I think the reason these don’t get as much attention is because people only watch it when they need to build a sugar cane farm , it should get more views in the long run
Agreed. I am playing modded right now, but will need it when we move back to vanilla this summer. Awesome tutorial Tango - easy to follow steps and visuals!
I believe it will get more traction when 1.16 comes out also. Most people are still using zero tick at the moment. I agree with tango and hate zero tick farms.
For one module: 16 pistons 16 sugarcane 16 dirt 18 redstone dust 4 observers 7 slabs 1 stair 8 iron bars Water sources Blocks I may have missed a few things.
My son is such a troll. I was making the farm and had to go do something and when i came back to place my pressure plates they would not stay in place. Kept breaking. watch tutorial 3 times and read all the comments to see what i was doing wrong. No mention of others having this problem. Looked in my inventory and my son replaced my pressure plates with light grey carpet. it almost looks the same. Now i am just face palming.
Technically a flying machine is only a problem if you want to leave the farm running unattended. Unlike a flying machine farm, this design has the minor downside that it cannot be turned off easily. Also, a farm with a flying machine could just be scaled up such that a single harvest is likely going to satisfy your immediate needs, and then the sugarcane can grow back until you need more and harvest again. Lag from the flying machine only happens while it is harvesting.
Yep this is a good farm but already have one with a flying macgune that is doing a great job maybe in another server I would make the farm from the tutorial
@@TheRealWormbo This cannot be turned off easily? 2 easy options are a leaver that "turns of " the observer (breaking the connection to the block), or a lever on the redstone that keeps the pistons extended, super simple
PSA: to make an 8 module farm of 2 long, 2 wide, 2 high, you will need to following: 128 pistons 12 observers 12 packed ice 128 sugarcane 134 redstone dust 6 repeaters 128 dirt Solid blocks, I've estimated at around 6ish stacks, didn't count them exactly, maybe take a couple extra stacks. 128 slabs, you could take less, as some get broken on the 2nd layer, but you will place 128 slabs. 4 stairs 20 glass 68 iron bars Lots of water Plus however many chests and hoppers you want to use for collection and storage. Will update the drops per hour of an 8 module farm once I've made this in my SMP, as only built a quick test in creative so I know what I'm doing first.
Completely forgot to update, with basic testing I got around 5-6 stacks an hour with 8 modules. I'll still be upgrading to at least 30 modules, but 8 is good early game and easy enough to make early game. 8 would also be enough if it were put near your main base and is loaded a lot of the time. Mine is in an industrial district and required dedicated AFK time, and I'm finding it requires more than 8 modules for that type of set up.
The unfortunate part is that this farm in large sizes is hard to spawnproof, the only option is to make most of the walls out of sea lanterns or glowstone
I know you were hesitant to build this, but thank you sir. It's a really good design and I'm sure it'll get some more love when 1.16 comes out and people look for a replacement sugarcane farm
UPDATED FOR 1.20+ 100% Loseless. >Replace the iron bars with closed fence gates, > Reason you're finding sugar cane on the dirt is because of both pistons pushing the item from both sides at the same time, to fix this add a repeater and set delay to 4 , so that the pistons facing each other does not fire at the same time.
@@Mr._Lagom From 1.16 ownards Iron Bars connect to nearby blocks such as piston heads. This sometimes pushes the sugarcane to the sides. Fence Gates don't have that problem

Yup, I was going to be putting together some crappy one in the next week or so regardless because of 1.16, but now I can just build a good one instead.
Love this design! It has the easiest redstone, is expandable on ALL directions, is fairly resourcefriendly, is compact, works in 1.16 and last but not least: no flying machine!
It's an "oldie but a goodie" design, although I think the original design involved a budded smart piston to power the entire row. I reconstructed a design similar to this when testing out various farms - I also like having the observers looking at the bottom reed (sugarcane) - it causes random tick updates, but on a large scale, it's slightly faster, but also slightly bulkier - something ilmango and gnembon would make an hour long video on, but I don't care if I get 1,000 drops an hour less. :)
why does he put the observers at the level of the first block of sugarcane rather than second? should it be the second so it can detect the empty space being filled with sugar cane and activiating the pistons?
FOR BEDROCK PLAYERS. Just as a heads up, doesn't work on bedrock. Water will wash away sugarcane and observer doesn't read the age change on bottom sugarcane. But awesome video Tango, unfortunately didn't work for bedrock but it did give me ideas on how to make my own lossless design.
I am also Bedrock and yes the water flow doesn't work. I have made adjustments by removing the observers at the end and placing them on top of the pistons. That way it observes them at 3 high and then pushes the middle breaking off the top two. Which also means a second row of iron bars to push them into so they drop straight down. The middle is 8 Hoppers that are water logged flowing into a Chest. I loved and hatted having to find a work around but thinking things through and trouble shooting gave me satisfaction of figuring out.
I just wanted to add a quick thank you, Tango. Your tutorial was perfect: the right amount of explanation, demonstration and guidance. It was clear and easy enough to follow and done at a good pace. Thanks! I look forward to any future tutorials you may make.
Can I say that you don’t need a 2 wide row of Redstone only one is sufficient due to quasi connectivity on java edition. Also mojang has confirmed that quasi connectivity is NOT a bug and works as intended as stated on the bug report
for all of you wanting to know each module makes ~30 sugarcane per hr (tested with a 2x4x4 system for 20 min then took the total ( 5 stacks )multiplied by 3 then divided by 32)
@@user-iz5kh4jh3k yes, but I don't really like them, because they can break when you unload the area. And Bedrock edition is still in the Beta, so it could easily be patched when 1.16 is out
This actually is the best sugar cane farm that I found and I made a really crazy build with your design I just made a 2x10x10 module and now i'm getting an insane amount of sugar cane
Omg he did it! Tango THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for making this tutorial, this farm is amazing and sooooo much easier and cheaper then most other farms out there... Thanks again man!!!
Great build. This absolutely still works in 1.19.2 (Java). Commenters saying otherwise simply did not build the farm correctly. (It will NOT work on Bedrock.) Be aware that you will likely need to "prime" each observer that faces a piece of sugar cane after you are done building the farm. If the piece of sugar cane in front of the observer grows to a height of 2 before you have built the redstone to fire the piston, you will need to re-place that sugar cane so that the observer can detect when it grows. This is the cause for the issue many people are reporting that the farm just "sits there" and doesn't harvest correctly.
@@weejohntee you only need to replace the piece of sugar cane that is sitting right in front of the face of the observer at the end of the line. You don’t need to replace the entire line.
@@weejohntee Only the piece of sugar cane directly in front of the observer should trigger the entire line to be harvested when it grows to a height of 2. You will have some pieces that grow in the middle of the line that don't trigger the pistons. Does that help?
@@Strofo16 Hi! Just wanted to ask if you know what the issue might be even if the observer has been primed and the sugarcane right in front has grown but it still hasn’t triggered the pistons
Can't wait to start building this farm very soon on a server. I may even replace the sugarcane with bamboo so i get an easy source of fuel for furnaces.
Tango, thank you so much for making this tutorial! I was experimenting with different sugarcane farm designs on my own, but they all had problems with lost items and stuff like that. I was really looking forward to this tutorial ever since you showed your farm on Hermitcraft, and I can't wait to use this design in my world. Thank you!
For bedrock, the only difference is we cant have flowing water at the same height at sugarcane. I haven't seen any get stuck on the dirt yet,all of the sugarcane get pushed into the iron bars and falls straight down into the water, so the farm is still lossless if you just have your flowing water in the channel where Tango has his solid water.
Oh wow! You uploaded this so soon after mentioning it on your other videos, thank you! I'm really excited to try building this for myself. I'm hoping that because it's lossless it will help smooth over the transition away from 0-tick farms for my server-mates. I've been trying to convince them for weeks to move to builds that will work with the next update, but everyone wants that last bit of sonic speed farming before it's impossible lol.
I really like the simplicity and reliability of this design! Since the rates aren't mentioned anywhere, I decided to quickly measure them with carpet mod in the world download. They seem to stabilize at slightly below 2500 items/hour there. Assuming that all modules are equally efficient (which they should be since all lines have the same probability per tick to be activated (even on the edge)), that gives around 50 items per hour per module (or 3.125 bone meal/hour if composted).
Only suggestion is to put materials at the beginning, when building this in survival and having to go back and forth from your storage system because you didn’t bring an item is a pain. But super easy to follow and just all around a great tutorial and design. Hope you post more of these!!
Thank you for this tutorial, and thank you for explaining the design instead of just placing blocks and calling it a day. As someone learning redstone, nothing frustrates me more than watching a tutorial that doesnt explain and just says "I'm sure everyone knows how this works". So yeah, thank you.
Found something fun to do with this farm. I changed up how the pistons are powered to an Observer line on top of the pistons. It primarily reduced gaps by having the walls be (from bottom to top) Sea Lantern, Piston, Observer. I found it soothing in an odd way with how the pistons fired in a wave motion (using quieter pistons from vanilla tweaks) and can do a fun lighting or other things on the outer walls that react to the observers.
Zombies will spawn on the sugarcane inside the farm. If you want to avoid this you can place a glowstone (or another light source block) under the redstone dust. If you change every fourth block under the redstone dust, from the center of the farm, to glowstone nothing will be able to spawn. Great design though Tango!
Thanks so much for this Tango! I love just having my farms on in the background and hate the constant need for monitoring the flying machine farms. When I saw the farm in your HC vid I was blown away, so happy you made a tutorial ❤️
Just built 2 modules and wow it's already more sugar cane than I'll ever need in my single player world, Great tutorial tango, you have a good format which is easy to follow along with in real time.
Thanks Tango. I saw it on HC and was interested in the tutorial. I've started a survival world on 1.16 when the update rolled out and wasn't quite happy with the typical sugarcane-farm designs yet. Thanks for solving the problem with sugarcane just sitting on the blocks. I'm guessing it would work with bamboo as well, right? (Just no need for the water in the first layer) Will definitely build this one.
Thank you, Tango! Seriously. You worked really hard to perfect this. We know you don't like making tutorials so this is extra special that you shared it. I appreciate how you defined the reason you built it this way. I'm to the point in my world I need rockets... this makes getting the paper soooo much easier!
Great tut Tango, I like how much thought you've put into having the farm be actually reasonable in terms of cost thus being something feasible to actually build in a survival world xD
Oh look someone replied to the comment. Must mean that there are a lot of interactions on this video Edit: tbh idk if edits helps. Anyway. Great video Tango. Easy to follow : D
*FULL MATERIAL LIST* (for 50 modules like in this tutorial of Tango's farm) If you want to build this sugar cane farm exactly like Tango did (5x2x5 = 50 modules), then here are the EXACT amounts you are going to need of each material: - 1394 solid building blocks of your choice - 800 sugar cane - 800 dirt - 800 pistons - 830 redstone dust - 400 iron bars - water sources (bring 2 buckets of water to make infinite water) - 270 blocks of glass (or just solid blocks if you want) - 77 packed ice - 75 slabs - 25 stairs - 60 observers - 30 repeaters - 27 stone pressure plates (you can probably find alternatives to this if you want) - chests and hoppers (in this tutorial there are only 2 hoppers and 2 chests, but you are going to want to make way more storage than that) _this was done by downloading the world from the description, and then using litematica's material list function_
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the observers detect when the end sugarcane grows, so wouldn't having observers on both sides of the middle rows (with b2b pistons) make the pistons extend more frequently, harvesting sugarcane more often?
The observers would go in the line of the dirt and that would mean that any sugarcane that goes on the edge of the water stream (half on the dirt block) would get stuck.

The middle is 8 Hoppers that are water logged flowing into a Chest. I loved and hatted having to find a work around but thinking things through and trouble shooting gave me satisfaction of figuring out.
Honestly the amount of thought you put into your designs is always mind-blowing, great vid as always
Ayyy glad for the tutorial! Cant wait to build it Tommorow and launch my firework empire
i dont really know how redstone works so i dont make automatic farms, but this one seems simple enough! will definitely try it in my game:D
The whole "top slabs in between the cane" part was in there twice. No harm done, it just really threw me off... (1:38 and 3:32)
Max Miles glad I’m not the only one that noticed that lol. Really confused me too!
Yeah I noticed that too
When I add top water it knocks off my sugar cane? What am I doing wrong?

I just wanted to add a quick thank you, Tango. Your tutorial was perfect: the right amount of explanation, demonstration and guidance. It was clear and easy enough to follow and done at a good pace. Thanks! I look forward to any future tutorials you may make.
You told me to watch this and give this support ! Here I am
Damn, I only realized now how I was missing some Tango tutorial!
for anyone wondering, this still works well in 1.19.3!! truly timeless design lol
Even though I didn’t need a tutorial, I’m here to show my support♥️
Can I say that you don’t need a 2 wide row of Redstone only one is sufficient due to quasi connectivity on java edition. Also mojang has confirmed that quasi connectivity is NOT a bug and works as intended as stated on the bug report
Yes, but quasi connectivity isn't necessarily an intended game mechanic, so the second redstone line will help future proof against potential patches.
@@cmckee42 despite it being unintentional they have said they won't get rid of it at least for a while
Well
Valid
@@cmckee42 no. QC wasn't intended originally but there is no way mojang will remove it.

They are never removing quasi connectivity. It was stated by Mojang
for all of you wanting to know each module makes ~30 sugarcane per hr (tested with a 2x4x4 system for 20 min then took the total ( 5 stacks )multiplied by 3 then divided by 32)
that's so wrong lol, I tested it. A sigle module makes like ~90 per hr
I’m never going to build this but I just love his voice
same, I don't even play Minecraft but I still watch
I play on bedrock and I suck at Redstone but I still watch because I support Tango
@@jdgfshdjfkakahdkshfhdjdh this should work on Bedrock as well
@@vishalbhat8602 bedrock still has 0-tick farms
@@user-iz5kh4jh3k yes, but I don't really like them, because they can break when you unload the area. And Bedrock edition is still in the Beta, so it could easily be patched when 1.16 is out
Thank you for taking your time to make a tutorial, Tango! Even though you said they don't do so well lately. really appreciate it!
This actually is the best sugar cane farm that I found and I made a really crazy build with your design I just made a 2x10x10 module and now i'm getting an insane amount of sugar cane
im definitely using this when i get my laptop back from repairs
Omg he did it! Tango THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for making this tutorial, this farm is amazing and sooooo much easier and cheaper then most other farms out there... Thanks again man!!!
Great build. This absolutely still works in 1.19.2 (Java). Commenters saying otherwise simply did not build the farm correctly. (It will NOT work on Bedrock.)
Be aware that you will likely need to "prime" each observer that faces a piece of sugar cane after you are done building the farm. If the piece of sugar cane in front of the observer grows to a height of 2 before you have built the redstone to fire the piston, you will need to re-place that sugar cane so that the observer can detect when it grows. This is the cause for the issue many people are reporting that the farm just "sits there" and doesn't harvest correctly.
I had the issue of it just sitting there so if i just replace each sugar cane after building the redstone it should work?
@@weejohntee you only need to replace the piece of sugar cane that is sitting right in front of the face of the observer at the end of the line. You don’t need to replace the entire line.
Thank you, my chests are getting sugar cane so it is working but everytime I look, the sugar cane has grown but it hasn't triggered the observer.
@@weejohntee Only the piece of sugar cane directly in front of the observer should trigger the entire line to be harvested when it grows to a height of 2. You will have some pieces that grow in the middle of the line that don't trigger the pistons. Does that help?
@@Strofo16 Hi! Just wanted to ask if you know what the issue might be even if the observer has been primed and the sugarcane right in front has grown but it still hasn’t triggered the pistons
This will definitely help later on my survival world! Thanks Tango!
Tango, I’ve only just begun but your great at tutorials. You should do more!!!
Can't wait to start building this farm very soon on a server. I may even replace the sugarcane with bamboo so i get an easy source of fuel for furnaces.
Tango, thank you so much for making this tutorial! I was experimenting with different sugarcane farm designs on my own, but they all had problems with lost items and stuff like that. I was really looking forward to this tutorial ever since you showed your farm on Hermitcraft, and I can't wait to use this design in my world. Thank you!
#ShopAtSahara
Cool name
Amazing video, will add it today to my world! Now just missing your amazing iron farm 😅
For bedrock, the only difference is we cant have flowing water at the same height at sugarcane.
I haven't seen any get stuck on the dirt yet,all of the sugarcane get pushed into the iron bars and falls straight down into the water, so the farm is still lossless if you just have your flowing water in the channel where Tango has his solid water.
did you manage to get this to work tho?
Thank you!
I've been stuck trying to recreate this farm for a few days lol. I thought I was doing something wrong. Thanks for explaining.
but we can just, like, bonemeal the sugar cane
@@toxiclynark589 the answer is pretty late, but yeah! works fine
Thanks for the tutorial tango! It was well put together and easy to follow. Will definitely build this in my survival world!
That is so great Tango!!!! I will definitely build this at my world!! Thanks for the tutorial!!!😁😍
3 years later, still works great- and with the auto crafter i can automatically make paper and rockets! everyone day ty tango
Oh wow! You uploaded this so soon after mentioning it on your other videos, thank you! I'm really excited to try building this for myself. I'm hoping that because it's lossless it will help smooth over the transition away from 0-tick farms for my server-mates. I've been trying to convince them for weeks to move to builds that will work with the next update, but everyone wants that last bit of sonic speed farming before it's impossible lol.
Thanks a lot for the tutorial, Tango! I've waited for this one.
I really like the simplicity and reliability of this design!
Since the rates aren't mentioned anywhere, I decided to quickly measure them with carpet mod in the world download.
They seem to stabilize at slightly below 2500 items/hour there. Assuming that all modules are equally efficient (which they should be since all lines have the same probability per tick to be activated (even on the edge)), that gives around 50 items per hour per module (or 3.125 bone meal/hour if composted).
is this per module?
@@Paranorium 2500 for the whole wdl, 50 per module
@@thomaskolar90 ah great. Thanks man!
Everyone watch this video through and give it some love, and we may get more tutorials in the future!
100% gonna build this! Awesome job Tango! GG
Only suggestion is to put materials at the beginning, when building this in survival and having to go back and forth from your storage system because you didn’t bring an item is a pain. But super easy to follow and just all around a great tutorial and design. Hope you post more of these!!
Thank you so much! This is the best farm without 0 tick! We need more tutorials!
Saw the stream so I already know this lol. Still watching tho bc tango
Me too
I really appreciate how he extends the farm both in width and length.
Thank you for making this, I know that you probably would have preferred to make a hermitcraft video
Thank you for this tutorial, and thank you for explaining the design instead of just placing blocks and calling it a day. As someone learning redstone, nothing frustrates me more than watching a tutorial that doesnt explain and just says "I'm sure everyone knows how this works". So yeah, thank you.
Found something fun to do with this farm. I changed up how the pistons are powered to an Observer line on top of the pistons. It primarily reduced gaps by having the walls be (from bottom to top) Sea Lantern, Piston, Observer.
I found it soothing in an odd way with how the pistons fired in a wave motion (using quieter pistons from vanilla tweaks) and can do a fun lighting or other things on the outer walls that react to the observers.
Me: showing this video love
This is actually the best tutorial I've seen in a good minute
Zombies will spawn on the sugarcane inside the farm. If you want to avoid this you can place a glowstone (or another light source block) under the redstone dust. If you change every fourth block under the redstone dust, from the center of the farm, to glowstone nothing will be able to spawn. Great design though Tango!
Thanks so much for this Tango! I love just having my farms on in the background and hate the constant need for monitoring the flying machine farms. When I saw the farm in your HC vid I was blown away, so happy you made a tutorial ❤️
This was so EAST to BUILD!
EAST
Yes really EAST
very EAST
Kinda sad it wasn’t a bit West tbh😢
EAST VERY VERY “EAST”
still works. replace the chain with closed fence gate and it’s the best bang for your buck farm you will find. (1.19.2 java)
Just built 2 modules and wow it's already more sugar cane than I'll ever need in my single player world, Great tutorial tango, you have a good format which is easy to follow along with in real time.
Thanks Tango. I saw it on HC and was interested in the tutorial. I've started a survival world on 1.16 when the update rolled out and wasn't quite happy with the typical sugarcane-farm designs yet. Thanks for solving the problem with sugarcane just sitting on the blocks. I'm guessing it would work with bamboo as well, right? (Just no need for the water in the first layer) Will definitely build this one.
Not sure if you built this, but I thought that I would keep the soil layer water for bamboo, since it is part of the collection system.
I watched you design this on livestream and as promised, here's some love. Awesome design and awesome tutorial
Just built 8 modules on Java 1.20.2 and now have a double chest of rockets by the time I finished building it 👍 great farm
I just wondering
now thank you!
Love the tutorial!! I’m not good with redstone but this one sounds so easy to make! Will def build it in my single player
Wow this is one the best tutorials ive seen some of the oher tutorials are super complicated for something that is so simple.
This is great! just built mine with 3 rows and it's been producing very well.
Thank you, Tango! Seriously. You worked really hard to perfect this. We know you don't like making tutorials so this is extra special that you shared it.
I appreciate how you defined the reason you built it this way. I'm to the point in my world I need rockets... this makes getting the paper soooo much easier!
For the bit of the farm where the pistons are back to back, you can have only 1 line of redstone because bud will power both pistons.
Hey Tango, just wanna say I've used this design in my world. It also works as a bamboo farm with is awesome.
Great tut Tango, I like how much thought you've put into having the farm be actually reasonable in terms of cost thus being something feasible to actually build in a survival world xD
I can’t wait to build this!
I was hesitating whether or not I should build 4 or 8 modules so I ended up building 200👍

Overall pretty good concept. However I would recommend adding some light source blocks so hostile mobs don't spawn within the sugarcane.
True zombies occasionally spawn inside mine
no-one makes tutorials as well as you do, thanks Tango
*FULL MATERIAL LIST* (for 50 modules like in this tutorial of Tango's farm)
If you want to build this sugar cane farm exactly like Tango did (5x2x5 = 50 modules), then here are the EXACT amounts you are going to need of each material:
- 1394 solid building blocks of your choice
- 800 sugar cane
- 800 dirt
- 800 pistons
- 830 redstone dust
- 400 iron bars
- water sources (bring 2 buckets of water to make infinite water)
- 270 blocks of glass (or just solid blocks if you want)
- 77 packed ice
- 75 slabs
- 25 stairs
- 60 observers
- 30 repeaters
- 27 stone pressure plates (you can probably find alternatives to this if you want)
- chests and hoppers (in this tutorial there are only 2 hoppers and 2 chests, but you are going to want to make way more storage than that)
_this was done by downloading the world from the description, and then using litematica's material list function_
Thanks! Appreciate it!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the observers detect when the end sugarcane grows, so wouldn't having observers on both sides of the middle rows (with b2b pistons) make the pistons extend more frequently, harvesting sugarcane more often?
Yea you could but it would mean you use more resources, an observers are a pain to craft.
That extra 1 could be used to make to make another module
@@mattanderson2477 if you're trying to conserve space and resources are bot an issue it is a fairly simple change though.
The observers would go in the line of the dirt and that would mean that any sugarcane that goes on the edge of the water stream (half on the dirt block) would get stuck.
@@XenophonSoulis I think Daniel and I were thinking of just adding one where it would be if the module was on the end.
@@matthewparker9276 Do you mean above the two side packed ice, in each side of the water stream? The sugarcane would get stuck there.
Just made this (6 modules - parallel) and it works fantastic! Thanks Tango
Excellent!
