1. Dig a 5x5 pit. Put a stone brick in every corner.
2. Build nine blocks up from each stone brick. Place a stone brick on top of each column. Connect these with spruce logs.
3. Go back to the bottom of your farm. Connect the spruce logs with a short wall of planks.
4. Then pick a side to use as an entrance for your farm.
5. Destroy the log adjacent to the stairs. Replace with stone and connect these with more spruce logs.
6. Place stairs on top of the logs. Then place glass.
7. Place a stone block in the center of the empty roof. Place spruce stairs around this block.
8. Put a dirt block on the inside of the farm.
9. Place a spruce plank on one side of the remaining dirt block. Put a redstone comparator on top of it. Break the wall block behind the plank and put redstone in the empty space.
10. Go to the other side of the dirt block. Place an observer. It should be looking down on the redstone comparator.
11. Go back inside and place a redstone comparator under the plank. Place another comparator opposite this, and then place another next to that.
12. Connect the comparators with redstone.
13. Put down a redstone torch and a repeater. Then place redstone to turn it on.
14. Place an observer, so it starts blinking. Place a spruce plank and lever.
