Alright, so I wanted to get one of those sunflower fields in Minecraft. You know, those big fields full of those tall yellow flowers? Yeah, those. I heard they’re kinda rare, so I wanted to use a command to get one. I did a little digging and found out that these fields are called “Sunflower Plains.” Apparently, they usually show up near regular plains biomes or cherry groves, and sometimes they’re separated from flower forests by rivers. I also learned that in the Bedrock Edition, villages and outposts can still pop up there.
I tried a few things to find these sunflower plains naturally, but no luck. Then someone told me about this “chunkbase” app that can supposedly help locate biomes if you give it your world’s seed. But honestly, that felt a bit like cheating to me. So, I decided to try using commands instead, since I had access to them.
First, I tried using the “/locatebiome” command. I opened up the chat window, typed it in, and… nothing. Well, not exactly nothing, but it didn’t give me the location of a sunflower plains. I guess that command is for finding the nearest biome in general, not a specific one like the sunflower plains.
Then, I remembered something about setting specific blocks using commands. I found these two commands:
- /setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:double_plant 1
- /setblock ~ ~1 ~ minecraft:double_plant 8
I figured that the “double_plant” thing had something to do with those tall flowers, and the numbers 1 and 8 probably referred to the bottom and top halves of the flower. So I tried them out. I typed the first command into the chat and hit enter, and then I did the same with the second command. And guess what? A sunflower appeared! It was just one, but it was a start.
So, if you’re looking to make your own sunflower field in Minecraft and don’t mind using commands, these two are your best bet. You can just keep repeating them in different spots to fill up your field with sunflowers. I mean, it’s not the same as finding a natural sunflower plains biome, but hey, it gets the job done, right?
