You can create beekeepers house's back where the honey farm is and front at the river. Door would be at side. Roof can be "falling" towards the river, that would look nice!
Hey Pix! Just a tip, you can have more than 3 bees per hive for more efficiency. Basically when the 3 bees inside the hive come out, the other bees can go in, which makes it so the hive is always generating honey!
I haven’t seen that work in Java. When the multiplying-bees glitch happened in my apiary, and it was overflowing with bees, there were still only 3 bees attached to each hive. The ‘extras’ had nowhere to go and caused lag, especially at night.
I completely forgot that your outro music is the minecraft disk music. I watched a different series yesterday and they were vibing to that melody, and the only thing I could think of is this survival guide, hahaha.
Hey Pix! Thank you for all the work you've been doing on the survival guide series, I've been playing along and learning so much. I've played Minecraft for a few years now but never properly on my own so this has been great! I'm starting to feel more confident as a Minecraft player rather than just a builder
I just finished building Wattles bee farm, the glass dome ar-bee-torium hehe...nice because pretty. But I like this bit about using hopper minecarts directly under the hive... simple and efficient. Gotta have the honeycomb, I've been doing copper domes for rooves and yah, need to wax, to get the perfect look ☺️
I really appreciate the details here, the demo of the mechanics. Makes it easy to be creative with my own...not just copy and paste, but build something of my own knowing how it works. Pix Lex FTW, lol 😁
Perfect timing! I’m literally about to start a honey farm 🤗🐝🐝🐝 Your tutorial videos are my favourite! You take your time and really explain the mechanics while you go. I really appreciate it! Thank you
Just a tip for you. While maybe inconvenient for you. Bees are always productive in the nether and or the end dimension since those dimensions don't have a day night cycle and/or rain and let them work 24/7 as long as the chunk is loaded
They're Minecraft bees. The game doesn't hurt the bees if you keep them in a space like this, they haven't programmed concepts like 'cruelty' or 'neglect' into the game. If you find it cruel, that's up to you; as I said in the video, you can leave these modules open and the bees will return to the hives on their own. They'll just take longer to do it; and sometimes they'll wander off and get lost on their own, but you'll still get honeycomb sometimes
Extremely ironically useful timing! My current game is a base in a snow biome village that I have been building up like crazy! (Basically, it's now a giant Snow Fort-ress.) Now that it has been long secured, (high snow walls & well illuminated) I have been doing miscellaneous (and decorative) projects there. Things like my Snow-Tower/ Lighthouse, beside the frozen river. the big doghouse/ kennel, the stable, etc. But currently, I have desperately wanted to make a Greenhouse / bee farm, type structure! (full of flowers) So, I REALLY needed to see HOW to set up an automatic Honey/ Honeycomb farm as part of it! Thanx Pixlriffs!
Hey Pix! Diamonds can be found at the max in veins of 8 only right? Today while strip mining I found a huge vein of 13 diamonds!! And even four more diamonds a couple of blocks later!! Is it possible or its a glitch? 🤔🤔
Diamond ore veins have occasionally been larger than 8 blocks before 1.18 already, but now that should actually happen even more often. Each chunk can generate small, medium and large veins, and the large ones can sometimes contain more than 10 ores.
I had no idea it was this easy lol also, i believe it says "dispenser failed" when there's nothing to sheer. That alone had me pulling my hair when i made my first sheep farm lmao i kept thinking i did it wrong and because there's so many modules i didn't know which was "failing" until i just sat watching one and figured it out hehe
I just raided an ocean monument in bedeock edition without water breathing.i literally was sneaking on a magma block and have to broke it with mining fatique 3 several times.but successfully raided it
3:44 The way i made the collection system is I planted flowers on farm land and then put regular hoppers under it and blocked the nest on all the sides except the side where the farmland is, saves 10 ingots of iron.
Every time I start a new project you come out with a brand new video that covers EXACTLY what I need. Really enjoy and appreciate the content Sir! Thank you. 😄
I’m confused as to why you even need the comparators. Couldn’t you use the same setup as the shears, except fill the dispenser with bottles? Wouldn’t the honey bottle still get kicked out that way?
I’ve built this and everything works fine except my honey comb isn’t going into the hoppers, it just gets spat out somewhere or stays on top of the flowering azaleas. Any advice?
Hey pix you don’t actually need a hopper minecrart. A regular hopper works the same because they pick up items in a full block range above them, and beehives spawn the honeycombs in the middle of the beehive block
In Bedrock, my bees can’t seem to leave the hive/nest if there is a flower directly in front of it. So my honeycomb ends up being difficult to collect, as it sometimes pops out the front. Just an FYI for anyone out there.
@@droppedpasta I used flowering azalea leaves because you can't put the azalea shrub/tree on top of the two outside hoppers. It's an excellent work-around in Bedrock and still be able to keep Pixlriffs design. Awesome build Pix!!! A+
However...I am still having an issue where the honey bottle ends up on top of the dispenser and not getting picked up by the hopper under the bee nest. And sometimes the bees get stuck outside the hive. They may just need more block space to enter/exit the hive consistently.
@@twhy01 Hmm, never had that problem with the honey bottles before. Basically built this same one back in 1.17, though I think there was a solid block on the dispenser, and I was using hopper minecarts.
Amazing tutorial! But I have the feeling, that Building the farm, will be a lot easier, then getting in the Bees 😅Because somehow, all the Bees from the Flower forest I am inhabiting, have suddenly perished as I finally need them. As I understand it, you can spawn them in with birch?
Did I read somewhere that a bug causing bees to disappear has been fixed? My bees have disappeared from both my honey and honeycomb farms. I painstakingly repopulated them once. But, it happened again. I haven’t tried to repopulate them since 1.17 as I don’t want to waste my time until I know how to prevent their disappearance again.
I had the same thing happen in my 1.17 world 2 times then recreated the issue and added an MC bug report. There was an issue with them despawning if the player left the area even if built in the spawn chunks. The 1.18.1 had the bees issue patched.
@@RedisFun2 Thank you. I can finally get my farms back up and running. Luckily, after the first occurrence and the pain of having to locate new nests, I bred up enough to fill some spare hives and stored them in a chest so I wouldn't have to go hunting for them again.
Hey Pix, can you please put the episode number earlier in the title or also on the thumbnail? On mobile it’s really hard to read the full title if it’s that long. Thank you for the great videos as always
@@troyclarke7124 thanks for trying to help. Which episode is Monday and which is Tuesday? What if we don't watch for 2 weeks? Just asking for the numbers to lead the titles or be on the thumbnails. If we wanna binge watch them next week or on our day off, we can do that easily.
Pix, I disagree with you on letting the extra bees go. If there are 3 extra bees per hive/nest, then 3 bees are working in the hive while 3 are working to collect pollen. If you have extra bees, they will go into the hive shortly after the other ones pop out reducing total time for a full cycle of work.
I think with the new update on console as of writing bees and flowers can’t occupy the same space. I had to remove the flowers in front of the hive or the bees won’t leave. But my hive has more grass and flowers so it’s not the exact build here.
What exactly would be the benefit? It's a Java world, so most of the redstone contraptions would be broken, and even some other Java-specific features wouldn't work.
Lmfaoooooooooo i know tat i know minecraft but now I feel like I know 1% of minecraft caz i dint knew tat tere are redstone levels and the comparator increase its power and all 🤣
I did my first honey farm last weekend. I remember seeing your past videos on it back in 2019 and the one on the Hardcore series but I decided to try my hand on figuring it out myself this time LOL I completely forgot comparators could read blocks through other solid blocks. I ended up using a repeater at the end of my circuit to power the dispenser. Not terrible, but more expensive than your solution for sure! I have a question though: I did my honey farm on a 45° diagonal (with free range bees). In the end I spaced out the modules because the diagonal made the redstone link in weird ways and I was afraid it was gonna mess up the farm. When you say it's okay if the redstone on the modules touch, you mean only if they are side by side? Also: I used hoppers on my honeycomb farm and I didn't see any jotting out except for once (in a 12 hive scale production), so I'm wondering how much loss is on having hoppers instead of minecart hoppers... Nevertheless, thanks for the video! It's always a joy to see you explaining things. 😄
Yes, the redstone only works if it's side-by-side. If you offset them by one block, the power from one module could activate an adjacent module and cause the dispenser to fire before the hive is ready.
Doing this in 1.19.3 and my farm dispenses empty bottles into the barrel/chest. And sometimes it doesn't even trigger the dispensers at all and the honey just gets stuck in the hive for me to manually get it. Granted, I'm doing this on a multiplayer server so that may be the case, but anyone experiencing the same thing in singleplayer?
because this design is obsolet since month they patch some redstone / hive interaction, especially when a comparator signal is use on hive and go to 1 or more , the comparator didnt update themselve due when the power level of the hive decrease anyway , he always consider himself alimented never update to 0 . You should look for / try a design with dispenser lock used to maintain update when hive gain / loose power level . Or simply add a day / night clock to your comp to lock the signal of the hive at night ( no honey level can be gain due to bee's inactivity) and unlock it when day rise as an update , with a chunk loader is barely possible .
I'm not interested in world domination; I want a simple automatic honey and/or honeycomb collection system for a tiny farm without imprisoning the bees... does anybody know where to find that build?
if u dont want to maintain bee near enough to speed up prod u can use day / night cycle to farm the hives ( bee are coded to work only on daylight tho ) . Without a lot of bees or close enough u dont aim for massive amount of honey . Daylight sensor -> dispenser ( bottle or sheeves ) -> hive -> hopper without chest , link the final hopper to the dispenser by a comparator to stop the clock when dispenser is full and prevent wasting bottle to get out the hive and dont get into the hopper or miss an update of the redstone / chunk . U can barely hide all the redstone under the trees where the hive generate, or build mini design around them with more flower if needed ( 3 bees / hive highly recommended )
Pix suggested to another comment here from a Bedrock player about that by suggesting using flowering azalea or flowering azalea leaves in place of the glass block. *see comment thread from Dropped Pasta
I've seen countless bee farm vids before. In fact I watched one from sausage a day or two ago. Funnier still I've even seen at least one version of Pix building a bee farm, maybe even two? I am pretty sure I saw at least 200 of the season one episodes, and spend a good chunk of time on other Minecraft channels. Suffice it to say I am rarely discovering "new" information - although with pix it's not uncommon! But in spite of the content being similar, the sheer power of Pix's encyclopedic knowledge, the series' comfortable pacing, and the generally authentic and positive vibes, I'm still here and excited episode after episode.
Hi pixlriffs, I have a question for you and hopefully you know the solution or someone else who has built the farms. It works for a little bit but then the dispensers fail to work after. I 've done the honeycomb farm on a server and in a single-player and same issues. I followed your tutorial to a T. Could it be the mechanics of the bee hive/ collection have changed?
They haven’t changed. A couple of things could be affecting that - make sure the dispensers still have shears, check the redstone dust hasn’t just stayed powered (and break/replace if it has), and make sure you’re keeping the chunks loaded (and the bees within simulation distance) if you want the farm to operate while you’re doing other stuff in the area.
@@Pixlriffs Thanks! I think I figured out what was wrong with the dispensers in single play I fixed them now and they work. I think I needed to place the beehive last...then took the observer and Redstone down and put it back and it fixed it. As for the server, I think it is a little strange because it is a bedrock/java server I did get it to work a different way for the honeycomb...but I have to place campfires because they get mad when it is sheared and I took out the minecart hopper from underneath and it started to work...so not sure...but it is collecting it now.
idk how but i swear some instructions are left out of this for the honey farm at the end of video... only because building it while watching, i hiccup every time putting the dispensers down coz they cover where they hive should go in front of the poppies... until i just put an extra line of planks on top where the dispensers connect to. or is it coz the glass at the back where comparators are, are actually two high? confusing tbh but meh i think i figured it :/ ?
I'm just starting a big copper project and gave these a try, but the honey bottle dispenser set up won't put anything in a hopper, it just spits it out sideways or even above or back in the comparator. And they won't stack in the comparator if I try to leave it an open spot, it just fills the one spot with a single bottle or starts failing to collect if I don't keep the bottles in all the slots. I'm so very confused!
What's the reasoning behind a hopper minecart under the nest that is sheared and a regular hopper under the one harvested for honey? In both cases, they serve the function of collecting the produce before it's ejected in a random direction, right?. Can the hopper minecart be replaced with a hopper, or is it faster than a regular hopper or something like that? I feel like I'm missing something. Btw, great video as always!
When I made a bee farm in my world, I built a normal honey farm, but filled up 1 slot in each dispenser with shears instead of bottles. That way I got both from one farm
Very nice simple farms. I like to add a bit of space to put a fence gate in front of the hives/nests, which can be controlled by redstone to be closed for when I want to trap the bees inside and turn the farm off, but that's entirely optional.

My tip: Use flowering azalea bushes for your bee farms.
where could I place it? Does it have to replace a specific block or can I place it anywhere Pix used moss or glass?
@@nickkyri6143 You can use them in place of the moss blocks.
You can use flowering azalea leaves as well
@@nickkyri6143 I use it instead of the moss block with the flower on top. It may not sit on top of a hopper however.
@@nickkyri6143 You can use flowering leaves as one of the walls, and they count as flowers so you don't need to make room for a row of flowers.
You can create beekeepers house's back where the honey farm is and front at the river. Door would be at side. Roof can be "falling" towards the river, that would look nice!

Hey Pix! Just a tip, you can have more than 3 bees per hive for more efficiency. Basically when the 3 bees inside the hive come out, the other bees can go in, which makes it so the hive is always generating honey!
I haven’t seen that work in Java. When the multiplying-bees glitch happened in my apiary, and it was overflowing with bees, there were still only 3 bees attached to each hive. The ‘extras’ had nowhere to go and caused lag, especially at night.
That tends to generate lag, especially on bedrock, because of the ways that each bee is linked to a hive via nbt.
For once i am on time for Pix's video. And it is the one i find the most useful!

Fun fact: honey bottles remove poison effects! Pretty useful when exploring mineshafts with cave-spiders or eating an poisoning potato by accident 😅

Hey Pix!
Diamonds can be found at the max in veins of 8 only right?
Today while strip mining I found a huge vein of 13 diamonds!! And even four more diamonds a couple of blocks later!!
Is it possible or its a glitch?
🤔🤔
There is a very rare chance that your vein of 8 diamonds connected to another vein of 5 diamonds on the chunk border of the neighbouring chunk.
Extremely lucky, but theoretically possible if multiple veins spawned next to one another.
Diamond ore veins have occasionally been larger than 8 blocks before 1.18 already, but now that should actually happen even more often. Each chunk can generate small, medium and large veins, and the large ones can sometimes contain more than 10 ores.

I wonder upper slab + fence can both breed bees and block from escaping.
Easiest would be to make a bee breeder room and take the full hives at night to your farm/other location.

In Bedrock, my bees can’t seem to leave the hive/nest if there is a flower directly in front of it. So my honeycomb ends up being difficult to collect, as it sometimes pops out the front. Just an FYI for anyone out there.

What do I do with 10 stacks of quartz...
The disadvantage on Bedrock Edition is the bees cannot exit the hives when there are flowers directly in front of them.
Would this design work on bedrock if you spaced it out a little more? Thanks!!!
Pix suggested to another comment here from a Bedrock player about that by suggesting using flowering azalea or flowering azalea leaves in place of the glass block.
*see comment thread from Dropped Pasta
Vegan teacher probably hates your set up here 😂
Don’t do this in real life
When are you going to make a video about raids
jesus christ , 25 min for a tutorial that should take less than 8.
You really do lik listening to yourself , dont you
U waste 25min because u cant figure how comparator and hive signal works . Or cant find fast forward .
Congrats .
I just realized the front view of his fishing shack looks like a rustic Krusty Krab with a roof ad-on XD

I've seen countless bee farm vids before. In fact I watched one from sausage a day or two ago. Funnier still I've even seen at least one version of Pix building a bee farm, maybe even two? I am pretty sure I saw at least 200 of the season one episodes, and spend a good chunk of time on other Minecraft channels. Suffice it to say I am rarely discovering "new" information - although with pix it's not uncommon!
But in spite of the content being similar, the sheer power of Pix's encyclopedic knowledge, the series' comfortable pacing, and the generally authentic and positive vibes, I'm still here and excited episode after episode.
Pix: does harda** things in the Nether for two episodes
Also Pix next episode: BEEZ! NehtreIte hOE!
Hi pixlriffs, I have a question for you and hopefully you know the solution or someone else who has built the farms. It works for a little bit but then the dispensers fail to work after. I 've done the honeycomb farm on a server and in a single-player and same issues. I followed your tutorial to a T. Could it be the mechanics of the bee hive/ collection have changed?
They haven’t changed. A couple of things could be affecting that - make sure the dispensers still have shears, check the redstone dust hasn’t just stayed powered (and break/replace if it has), and make sure you’re keeping the chunks loaded (and the bees within simulation distance) if you want the farm to operate while you’re doing other stuff in the area.
@@Pixlriffs Thanks! I think I figured out what was wrong with the dispensers in single play I fixed them now and they work. I think I needed to place the beehive last...then took the observer and Redstone down and put it back and it fixed it. As for the server, I think it is a little strange because it is a bedrock/java server I did get it to work a different way for the honeycomb...but I have to place campfires because they get mad when it is sheared and I took out the minecart hopper from underneath and it started to work...so not sure...but it is collecting it now.
idk how but i swear some instructions are left out of this for the honey farm at the end of video... only because building it while watching, i hiccup every time putting the dispensers down coz they cover where they hive should go in front of the poppies... until i just put an extra line of planks on top where the dispensers connect to. or is it coz the glass at the back where comparators are, are actually two high? confusing tbh but meh i think i figured it :/ ?
good morning dad
I'm early. Woo-hoo!
I'm just starting a big copper project and gave these a try, but the honey bottle dispenser set up won't put anything in a hopper, it just spits it out sideways or even above or back in the comparator. And they won't stack in the comparator if I try to leave it an open spot, it just fills the one spot with a single bottle or starts failing to collect if I don't keep the bottles in all the slots. I'm so very confused!
What's the reasoning behind a hopper minecart under the nest that is sheared and a regular hopper under the one harvested for honey? In both cases, they serve the function of collecting the produce before it's ejected in a random direction, right?. Can the hopper minecart be replaced with a hopper, or is it faster than a regular hopper or something like that? I feel like I'm missing something.
Btw, great video as always!
i expected this to be so much harder! Thanks, Pix, for explaining everything and making it easy 😊
Tbh i forgot that pix had a parrot
Al fajeed la sun
finally someone who highlights the spot in the f3 screen theyre talking about, so fed up with pausing the video and searching where it is xD
First
Wow, I'm early for once! Might build one of these for my base :)
When I made a bee farm in my world, I built a normal honey farm, but filled up 1 slot in each dispenser with shears instead of bottles. That way I got both from one farm
Very nice simple farms. I like to add a bit of space to put a fence gate in front of the hives/nests, which can be controlled by redstone to be closed for when I want to trap the bees inside and turn the farm off, but that's entirely optional.
Oml thats crazy
Aren't you going to join empire seson 2 I will miss you if you won't😢😢😢
You are the best UA-camr to learn survival Minecraft from
You should check out the Minecraft elegance series. There is a bee farm that collects both honey and comb if you want it to
Spinning bees! 😃

Could place buttons on the top front of the honey farm to fire the dispensers, just to reset it if you ever need to.
Instead of a poppy you can just place Azalea leaves with flower in place of the the moss
Please do Skyblock 1.18 (Day 18)
i meant Day 23
I need to start playing MC again, I took a break but all these videos make me want to try these things out.
pix since u want to build a base in every biome, maybe rebuild pixlandria in the desert
i finally understand how a comparator works! thank you
Third?
