Maximize Dye Collection for Large Projects

Preparing for Big Builds

Since you can now dye eight blocks per dye, you need fewer dyes overall—but large projects still require planning to ensure you have enough of each color.

Dye Gathering Strategy

1. Calculate how many blocks of each color your build needs

2. Divide by eight to determine dyes required per color

3. Prioritize gathering dyes for your primary colors first

4. Collect secondary and accent colors as you progress

5. Keep extra dyes on hand for adjustments and mistakes

Efficient Collection Methods

• Farm flowers for dyes if your build uses many natural colors
• Hunt mobs that drop dye-related materials
• Explore ocean biomes for sea-based dyes
• Trade with villagers if available in your world
• Consider setting up automated farms for renewable dye sources

With the mod's efficiency, a single dye goes much further than before. This means even ambitious projects become more achievable without spending weeks gathering materials. Focus on the colors you'll use most and work outward from there.
