A cactus is a 2-block tall crop that grows on sand from cactus seeds.
Obtaining[]
Harvesting[]
Harvesting a cactus yields 1 - 3 cacti, 1 cactus seed, and 42 Farming XP (168 XP with the 4x daily bonus). The chance of obtaining more than one cactus per plant is increased by the player's Farming level and for owners of the VIP gamepass. Extra cactus seeds cannot be yielded.

The growth time of cacti is not affected by water nor basic fertilizer.
