FAQ
What tool do I need to break a spruce sapling?
None — it breaks instantly with any tool or bare hands.
How do I grow a giant spruce tree?
Place four spruce saplings in a 2x2 square with at least 14 blocks of open space above and enough light.
Can spruce saplings be used as furnace fuel?
Yes, each sapling smelts 0.5 items, though it is a relatively weak fuel source.
Does bone meal always work on saplings?
No, there is a random chance each application succeeds, so it may take several tries to force growth.
