How to Set Up an Automated Harvesting Farm

Using Cocoa Critters for Automatic Harvesting

Cocoa Critters automatically harvest mature crops and store items, making them perfect for hands-off farming.

Steps:

1. Grow Cocoa crops until they mature and spawn a Cocoa Critter

2. Place the critter in or near your crop farm

3. The critter will automatically harvest fully grown crops

4. Items are stored inside the critter (up to 5 items)

5. Place a hopper below or beside the critter to auto-deposit harvested items into chests or processing systems

Combining with Growth Acceleration

For faster harvests, pair Cocoa Critters with Melon Critters:

1. Spawn or tame Melon Critters in the same farm area

2. Melon Critters speed up crop growth by watering nearby plants

3. Faster-growing crops mean more frequent harvests by your Cocoa Critter

4. Use multiple Melon Critters for larger farms to ensure all crops are watered

Maintenance

Occasionally feed your critters Farmer's Treat to reset their cooldown and keep them working at peak efficiency.
