Description
The Pine Tree is a Tree found in abundance in the Forest biome.
Planting
Planting new trees requires first obtaining the Seed of the desired tree type. Seeds can be harvested by chopping down a tree that is stage 1 or greater growth stage.
Once the appropriate seed is obtained, it can be planted by placing it into suitable ground. This ground must have a Fertility Level of at least 1, must have access to natural light, and must be located at least 4 blocks away from any other tree. Alternately, a tree can be planted in a Farm Plot.
Tree Growth
Once planted by a player, a tree will grow over time. Naturally-found trees generated at map creation do not grow to more mature stages.
Trees planted by a player will initially appear as small saplings. They will slowly grow in stages until a maximum size is reached. Each planted tree has up to four different growth stages beyond the sapling stage. The Fertility Level of the ground in which the tree has been planted determines the maximum growth potential of that tree. The initial requirement for planting is a Fertility Level of 1. Each stage of growth takes 63 minutes to progress to the next one. Players can assess the growth stage of a tree by its visual appearance or by checking its durability.
Harvesting
Harvesting a tree will yield resources (Wood and Seeds) based on the tree growth stage. Newly-planted trees, or saplings, cannot be harvested or directly attacked. They do not provide any resources if they are destroyed by digging up the ground in which they are planted or by burning them with fire.
Tree Growth Stage | Soil Fertility Required | Hit Points | Wood Harvested | Seeds Harvested |
---|---|---|---|---|
Sapling | 1 | 10 | 0 | 0 |
Stage 1 | 1 | 300 | 30 | 1 |
Stage 2 | 1 | 600 | 70 | 2 |
Stage 3 | 3 | 900 | 110 | 2 |
Stage 4 | 5 | 1200 | 150 | 2 |
Using an Appropriate Tool such as an Iron Fireaxe or a Steel Fireaxe will decrease the time it takes to chop down the tree but does not affect the total resources obtained.
The amount of wood harvested can be increased by:
- Increasing levels in the Mother Lode perk,
- Reading the Art of Mining Vol. 3 perk book and then drinking either Coffee or Blackstrap Coffee,
- Consuming Rock Busters candy.
