    Item/Rank/Feature: Nether Wart (Netherstalk)

    Data Value: 115

    Current Price: $.6

    Suggested Price: $.8 - $1

    Brief Description: Must have soul sand and then place a netherwart in the soul sand. After a long process, it may be harvested to obtain more netherwart.

    Open Discussion: Netherwart farming is incredibly slow. I managed about 1k in 15 minutes of netherwart farming and it takes way to long to plant and much too long to grow for its price. Potatoes and Carrots however are $.65 and they are easy to grow and harvest and I believe, give the same amount of harvested material.

    I really don't think anyone netherwart farms for money anymore. People mainly use netherwarts for brewing.

    I know, because it is way to hard to farm for the price you get for them.

    Well it should be made for making money :) +1 to the idea, and maybe potions would get more interest then too! I personally pay around $30 per speed II potion, which I know I could make fairly quickly, but I have no access to netherwart. An increase in price would lead to an increase in farmers, which in turn would lead to more netherwart for me to buy :D

    I'd be happy to sell you all the netherwart you need, I've been stocking up hoping that a change does happen. I just did a small trial of farming prices in 5 minutes. Netherwart was dead last and potato and carrot farming was just a bit bette, however much easier to replant... Pumpkins were first since I do not have the almighty sword. Hopefully people will come look at this. Also netherwart yields no herb exp... This is also something that could possibly change if netherwart becomes profittable.

    Yeah it needs a bump in price, and maybe netherwart can be added to the mcmmo plug in to give herb exp!

    Also you did not mention the fact that you cannot use water which speeds up crops growing time, as well as the fact soul sand if very difficult to walk across and can take around twice and long as normal dirt which means harvesting time is twice as slow.

    The only issue is semi-automatic netherwart farming, meaning the speed of harvest is not affected, although because of the speed of replanting I think netherwart does need a slight increase.

    I farm nwart all the time. You don't have to farm it like wheat/carrots/potatoes. I place the soul sand 1 block higher than the ground and farm it sideways from the ground. Much more efficient.

    That bump was kind of a necro, you could have created a new thread.

    But anyway, isn't there already a farm discussion thread for this kind of stuff?

    I hate to be a partypooper, You could easily triple your profits using either fly/speed or a water farm…
