Wheat

From Better Than Wolves


Wheat is a domesticated crop found only in Villages, grown from Wheat Seeds. It is used for feeding Pigs, Sheep and Cows, and is used for making Flour, which is a basic food ingredient.

Wheat is obtained from harvesting from either the top or the botoom section of a fully grown crop, either by hand or by use of a Piston or Block Dispenser. This will give you both Wheat and Straw, which can also be used for feeding Cows and Sheep.

Keep In Mind

A classic mid-game wheat farm, in planters.


  • Crops take 8 days to grow, so it can take a large field to sustain an animal breeding population.
  • Sometimes the wheat plant will miss a daily growth, so it can take up to 10 or (rarely) even 11 days for one plant to fully grow.
  • Bone Meal can be applied to Farmland to make crops grow faster.
  • To sustain crops, Farmland must be kept hydrated and must be no further than 4 blocks away from a water source.
  • Wheat requires either direct sunlight or a Light Block placed above it to grow.
  • Given its slow growth rate, how much flour you need for Food and Villager trading and how painful it is to deal with weeds, it is advised to make many Planters and to build a big farm. Bonus point if you have a Mobtrap to produce an endless supply of Bone Meal.
