Drip stone was even more op when it first came out. Back then you could have water above it like in the water farm, but then put potions in the cauldrons and it would actually raise the level of the potion. Meaning you could actually have an infinite *potion* farm as long as you don't collect the bottom level of potion

One thing to add (mainly for people playing in skyblock/superflat). Try not to craft the pointed dripstone into the blocks. A stonemason will actually sell dripstone blocks, which is much easier and faster

[@B463L]

I've been quarrying out a dripstone cave area & I'm easily winding up with three shulker boxes of dripstone blocks, so that's another way. Masons are super underrated though.

So many things I never knew about dripstone! You always find a way to take a seemingly mundane item and create amazing content around it - and in an interesting and fun way with lots of tricks - like the trident!! Be careful it doesn’t hit you “square in the eye!” 🤣 Thanks again for your great videos! 💚🌲

[@amgranger]

Truth! I had no idea about half of these uses!

[@kimberlyjohnson2580]

Did not know about the clay farm! I'm definitely going to use that in my world. Thanks for the awesome vid 😊

[@B463L]

Pro tip: mud can be made with coarse dirt. This means you can take gravel from a piglin barter farm, craft it with whatever dirt you were going to use, and make twice as much mud. Some renewable fanatics might till coarse dirt into dirt and repeat the process, but personally I think tilling coarse dirt probably takes more effort than just instamining naturally-generated dirt. If I ever need tons of mud or clay, I'm going to craft gravel from piglin barters and naturally-generated dirt into coarse dirt & convert that directly into mud.

[@timohara7717]

oh you dont even need a hoe@@B463L

[@deviledegg8266]

I need a clay farm so bad. I built a nursery in my castle because I love the flowers in minecraft and even collected almost all the saplings. So I need so much more clay planters 😩

[@petercarioscia9189]

Ive been using drip stone for mud>clay conversion for months....but i only recently set up a lava farm, and honestly i cant believe it took me this long. Its great not having to run to the nether everytime i need lava buckets (i smelt a lot of ores and glass)

solid video, renewable lava is extremely overlooked esp. by new players

[@00503891]

Dripstone is, in my opinion, non intuitive. Since nothing in the game teaches how to use it and any theories take a long time to confirm. A video like this is the perfect help.

[@mdb45424]

its useful up till you get to the nether. seas of lava will give you all you need if your brave or you can get the easy puddles dotted around. I useally avoid using lava as fuel mostly, eiter it super over kill or runs out while your at base.

[@BooksMusicMe17]

​@@mdb45424It doesn't run out while you're at your base if you have just a few dripstone lava cauldrons set up around your base. I do it as soon as I get access to lava.

I somewhat automated my mud-to-clay farm with droppers full of water bottles, then some hoppers with empty bottles under the droppers. Then redstone to a switch, so you place dirt, flip a switch and they turn to mud, then the dripstone turns it into clay.

I like to put a single potion bottle in each cauldron and use the water/dripstone farm to make an infinite potion farm. Just be sure to only take 2 bottle at a time when it's full and it'll fill back up with the potion over and over. Severely OP

I miss your videos. They’re all so informative and you’re great with puns. I can see that maybe you’re finding it hard to think of ideas for videos. I have three idea suggestions: 1. Somethings you’d like to see updated into minecraft. 2. Build mechanics and tips 3. Late game projects to do when bored

[@LeafyK]

Wow! The lava farm is a revolutionary change for me! I'm too simple to use redstone stuff so this is something I can understand and implement

[@mlggamer5296]

Something I saw in the intro and I was like I never even thought about that you can use tridents to make the stalactites fall. I assume this also works with arrows. Imagine fighting enemies like that

[@RealValkor]

I just realized that too, on my new survival world I made a lava farm with drip stone and I already made a single chest full of lava buckets, it's so fast!

[@mlggamer5296]

That's very interesting so the water and the drip stone block causes dripstone to grow on the ceiling of it. That would explain why mine got so large after a few days

[@Nancytoday]

I love making a dripstone infinite lava machine. I have a huge supply of obsidian I’ve made from it now. it’s perfect for all the portals I need for my subway system

[@SisterRose]

I hope they add more forms of dripstone, like Columns(Where stalactites and stalagmites meet), IRL "dripstone" is the collective name for a bunch of cool cave mineral formations

[@timohara7717]

yea.... theres alrealy walls and conjoined ones did you even go into a cave

[@jamespayne7977]

I did build a clay 🧱 farm. Thanks for the tip.( It rocks!) I even added an on site chest for dirt, shovels, water bottles, and the clay, if need be. I even added an on site water resevoir so you don't have to go far to refill the bottles and dump water bottles on the dirt. Also stairs to easily reach the top of the wooden part of the farm.

[@XBettyNoireX]

Plus you can trade the clay with Mason villagers for super easy emeralds 💎

[@kaitlin2019]

7:16 this is so important.ive been wondering why mine was skipping rows and I think this is why.

[@mlggamer5296]

Part of me was hoping that as well the dripstone could help with potion making. I know that normally if water is interacted with cauldron with a potion in it it completely evaporates and is destroyed but I think the exception should be the stalactites. I mean think about it you have a potion by say one level or you put one bottle in the cauldron. It should be a thing where the water drips in there and it can raise the level of the potion up till it's full. So that one potion can turn into three very easily and you get a renewable source of potions. Unfortunately doesn't work

[@SantomPh]

it originally worked this way but it was patched out.

Place a cauldron outside. Where it snows a lot. To collect powdered snow. FYI, it takes forever.

[@timmyjoe5765]

The water farm is useful if you plan to dye a lot of leather armor or collect a set of every color.

[@matthewgarcia2119]

Well another thing you could do is make obsidian. Since the top 10 have to be lava sources, you put water and get 10 obsidian. You then take the lava from 10 cauldrons and refill the top. Not super useful but it is a use lol

[@person5242]

So I’m the only one eating drip stone huh

[@zekodun]

1:27 OP forgets that the Dripstone block is also sold by Mason villagers which then can create pointed dripstone with a water source block above the dripstone block. (played *way* too much skyblock not to figure that trick out)

The water farming can be useful if you turn off the infinite water gamerule.

[@carterwilliamson1322]

Wait… if you are in a 1.20 sky block world you could technically get to the nether in the following theoretical steps. Step 1 is to grind for a while normally until you have a surplus of wood and cobblestone and then build a mob farm. Step 2 is to collect all the drops until you get 144 gold armor or tool pieces, that number because you can smelt a gold armor piece for one nugget, nine nuggets make an ingot, and eight ingots and an apple make a golden apple, which you need two of. Step 3 is to make a few boats and capture a witch and two zombie villagers. You can do this by making a giant platform. Step 4 is making the witch throw a weakness potion at you which hits the zombie villagers in the crossfire. You can now heal the zombie villagers with your golden apples if they did get hit. Step 5 turn one of them into a fishermen, which has fish and string trades, those are things you can get in sky block. Step 6. You now have emeralds, turn the platform that helped you capture the villagers and witch into a wandering trader farm which is just a place to wait for a trader to spawn. Step 7. Eventually you will get a trader trade for dripstone, buy it. Step 8. While you were grinding for all the gold armor you also had a good chance of passively getting rare iron drops from zombies. If you were lucky, enough to build a cauldron, if not, grind more. Step nine. Collect the lava, the cauldron, some blocks, and the dripstone and create infinite lava which you can turn into obsidian using the speed runner portal strategy. Step 10. Their is no flint available yet for flint and steel so you have to get the lava to burn a piece of wood to light the portal. You now have a video idea and a way to get into the nether on skyblock. Also, you don’t really need two villagers, I was thinking that you needed a tool smith for a diamond pickaxe, but no, you don’t, I was simply too lazy to say that earlier.

[@Minecraft_501]

You are still legend 💖🌹 I always waiting for your video notification

[@Ultima_Z]

I see the lava farm's ability to burn items as a feature rather than a downside. Now not only does it serve as an infinite source of lava, it also doubles as a trash can.
