Day 445: Underground trees?

Sometimes you need a project that’s just for, y’know, goofing around. This is the ongoing saga of my Minecraft character. For lack of a better title, we’re going with “One Among the Dead”. 

Day 445:

I had to go all the way back to my home base to get some wood today.

I’m seriously considering trying to grow some trees indoors, underground.

I mean, there’s some wood near the entrance that I have at this end of the caverns, but chopping it down here means putting myself at risk of outdoor monsters, who are more difficult to spot and predict than, say, indoor monsters.

I haven’t decided if I want to go the route of building a skylight or see if I can grow them using torchlight… everything grows really fast here so I imagine I’ll have results pretty quickly whichever way I go if I’m successful… but back home simple firelight didn’t have the right wavelengths in it to help plants grow and I don’t know if it will here or not.

I’m mulling the possibilities.
