Right click leaf blocks to harvest fruit.

Obtaining

Fruit trees are found growing naturally in the wild in areas with an average biome temperature between 10 and 25, and a rainfall value of at least 500. In order to get a sapling, the cross-shaped branches of fruit trees must be broken with an Axe or a Saw. There is roughly a 50% chance that a sapling will drop.

Types

	Banana	Cherry	Grn Apple	Lemon	Olive	Orange	Peach	Plum	Red Apple
Leaf											Fruit Tree Bark (All Except Banana)
Flower											Banana Tree Bark
Fruit											Dead Branches

Note: In the fall, the leaves turn brownish-orange for all trees.

Usage

Fruit tree saplings do not grow instantly. Instead, fruit trees grow slowly, getting taller month after month, growing (or regrowing) leaves and branches. This means that the branches can be harvested for saplings, and that they will eventually grow back. Unfortunately, this also means that it can take a very long time to grow trees as large as you will encounter in the wild. Trunk blocks will grow about every 30 days, branches every 20 days, and leaves every 2 days.

When the fruit tree is in season, it can produce a new piece of fruit about 2 days after the last piece has been harvested. To harvest the fruit, simply right-click the leaves and the fruit will drop. All fruit trees drop pieces of fruit ranging from 5 to 25 oz in weight.

Red Apple	Bloom					Harvest

History

Issues

• Fruit trees grow instantly to full size with all branches after the initial 30 days, instead of just adding a single trunk block.

Trivia

• Fruit trees only produce fruit when the current temperature is between 0 and 38. For the majority of cases, the seasonal requirements (Spring to Late Fall) already fall into this temperature range, with the exception being extreme areas such as deserts, very few jungles near the equator, and the deep tundra.
