- Pumpkins can most easily be harvested with an axe, and drop whole as items. Melons can be broken quickest using an axe. They also break faster using a sword but at the cost of double durability.

This is a tutorial on how to farm pumpkins and melons, both manually and automatically. For other types of farming see Farming.
Melons and pumpkins use essentially the same mechanics for growth and can be easily farmed with the same techniques. Once the plants are mature, they provide a steady supply of fruit for your needs. Surprisingly, water is not needed to grow pumpkins or melons. When planted, they create a stalk that starts out short, but grows and becomes yellow as ...
This section contains suitable layouts for farms that must be manually harvested. The percentages given are space efficiencies. Parenthesized values are theoretical maximums, which assume that there are free blocks surrounding the farm for the border plants to place melons. The maximum possible efficiency for any melon or pumpkin farm is 50% (one f...
Both melons and pumpkins are broken and dropped when a piston pushes into them. This mechanic can be used to create self harvesting farms. The simplests designs like this push sticky pistons upward into the fruit. Since it is difficult to automatically collect the items when harvested this way, the technique makes for some practical semi automatic ...
These farms require no player interaction for the harvesting and collection of pumpkins or melons after being built. Fully automatic farms require pistons and redstone to function and are generally more expensive to build than manual or semi-automatic pumpkin and melon farms.
Farms are triggered automatically in one of three ways.
1.By a system based on time. You can use either a Redstone/hopper clock or a daylight sensor for this.
2.By making bud switches, or placing observers, that detect when an adjacent block updates.
3.Using a simple Redstone circuit that completes when a pumpkin or melon grows.
Pumpkins and melons are collected in a combination of the following.

Feb 18, 2013 · This tutorial illustrates the factors that determine the speed of growth of melons and pumpkins. It also shows you how to build very efficient farms or improve your existing ones.
Like the title says. with the tutorials, I've seen online people state that its best to alternate between pumpkin and melon to receive maximum efficiency yet they never state why and how that works? Could someone explain this.
Pumpkins have become a renewable resource, as it is possible to farm pumpkins in the same way as melons. They have been changed to face away from the player. They can appear also in swamps. Mineshafts can now have pumpkin seeds, providing another way to farm pumpkins besides finding them.

The non-tool way to break melons is using pistons, which "pops" them instantly, but this requires finding redstone first, and ideally would be automated with more redstone, making pistons a later-game method of quickly harvesting melons.
