Minecraft: do trees grow underground?

(Bedrock Edition)

Hi Guys!

In fact, I dug an underground room in survival mode to farm diamonds (please don't complain that this is unnecessary, I got 2 stacks und), and now I wanted to build a small base with a portal…

Since you need a lot of wood and I don't feel like running upstairs every time to get some, I wonder what exactly I have to do to reach light level 10 and higher underground, for some reason no trees grow.

Thank you very much for every tip, on the pictures you can see again where I'm currently…

So either this is a bug or (more likely) the ceiling is too low.

Sp

So trees only grow when you place a seedling and the light level doesn't play a big role, I think, but safe is safe

Ru

Oh, he has not placed any seedlings 🤦🏻♂️

st

7 blocks? How high should it be, I can't build much deeper, that's bedrock

Ru

So you have to use it to place trees to grow seedlings. But you only get this if you cut down trees completely. The leaves then decompose and then seedlings come out of them or, in the case of oaks, apples.

Sp

If you plant the trees in the pit that should be enough for oak trees

st

But there's one ^^

Sp

Oh yes then put bone meal on it that accelerates growth

Ru

In which biome are you there?

st

If you look closely, there's a sapling between the torch cross.

Ru

Yes did not notice him sorry

st

I have no idea, I should be right under a village

st

Maybe it's my fault, it's a bit blurry 😓

Ru

Birch trees can grow very tall, which means that the ceiling is too low.

Ru

If you look twice you can see it

st

Ok thank you, then I'll build a few blocks deeper👍🏻, any recommendation? Current is 7 in height

Ne

The trench needs to be dug approximately 5 blocks further down (approximately). If the trees are short of space, they just won't grow.

st

How much bone meal do you usually need, after 12 times nothing has happened…

st

This is the latest version for the mobile phone, I play via Bluestacks

Ne

Ah ok.

Ne

You can set the graphics (BO profile) to classic in the Minecraft settings then the inventory looks better and the hearts are down

st

I like it so much better to be honest😅

st

There's now 8 space above the seedling (block), is that enough?

Ne

Maybe yes, but I still think about safety 2 blocks

st

Further down is bedrock, further up it breaks the beautiful flat ceiling, does it differ from tree to tree? Then I just use other wood…

Ne

No. I think that's enough. If not even a tree has grown after 20 minutes then use another wood

Ne

That means too little space… Maybe dig up the sides and move the torches a little further away. The tree has been "blocked", so to speak

st

Now it works, I built up, torches are right next to it, it still works haha

Ne

See "Not enough space"

Sp

There are different types of trees but oak gets 8 blocks high I think

Ne

Yes
