How to Make a Efficient Melon Farm!
Works with pumpkins too
Step One:
First you will want to find the area you will want to put the farm in.
I picked a wild random area!
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Step Two:
Dig out a 9x9 hole.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Step Three:
Make a Border of what ever you want.
I used Wooden Planks because I had alot
(remember keep the inside 9x9 for maximum Efficiency)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Step Four:
Fill in almost half of the square with dirt.
Make the empty part 5x9 and the filled in part 4x9
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Step Five:
Repeat on the other side so there is a 1x9 hole in the middle
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Step Six:
Fill in the middle where there is block in the middle.
(This step is optional if you don't mind using more water)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Step Seven:
Have someone fill in those empty blocks if you can't.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Step Eight:
Cover up the water for easy travel
(This step is optional)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Step Nine:
Hoe all the dirt within the border you made.
(Now do you see why i made the border?)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Step Ten:
Plant the Melon seeds Where the wooden Borders are.
(This step is kind of hard to explain so please see the picture.)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Step Eleven:
Repeat Step Ten.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
And now you have made your farm!
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
This is how it should look like When all completed
(This is my personal farm underground)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Preferred to use bone meal on the melon seeds so it grows faster!
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
For Maximum Efficiency make tons of farms stacked

If you don't use bone meal, max efficiency (from planting seeds to seeds fully grown, then melons growing) would be with daylight. Torchlight and underground cuts growth rate by 50%. I don't know if that also applies to melon growth, but if it does, you'd be better off not doing it underground and stacked layers of farms. o.o

Your farm isn't the most efficient. It has an efficiency of 97.22%
The following farm has an efficiency of 98.77%
Its a very good tutorial, none the less. -
