28 Weird Minecraft Tips & Tricks You Didn’t Know

February 10, 2020 by Kevin Thielenhaus

Diving back into Minecrafter after the new Nether Update? Here’s all the weirdest details, secrets and tricks.

#10: Place a glass block on a diagonally-adjacent space from a tree sapling, and the tree will instantly grow to full size.

#11: Looking for diamonds? They’re a whole lot easier to find in Water Ravines — diamonds are much more common in these underwater biomes. You’ll just need to survive underwater for awhile.
