Fruit trees will go through several stages of growth until they reach their maximum height of 6 blocks and maximum width of 5 blocks. Growth stages and the time between them are the same for all fruit tree species. They will simultaneously go through their seasonal changes as well, however those two do not influence each other - as long as the fruit tree has leaf and/or branch blocks, those can flower and bear fruit. However, leaf blocks that have not flowered and only grow while the rest of the tree is already in the fruiting or ripe phase will '''not''' adapt to the same seasonal stage and instead stay plain.<br> | |||
It takes on average 8 days until the next growth stage is reached, however it can - very rarely - take less or more time, from 6 to a maximum of 10 days.<br> | |||
A growth stage can either be an upwards or sideways growth. This means the tree will cycle through growing one block taller and then adding additional leaf blocks until the full "volume" for the current height is reached. The last few growth stages are different from this cycle, since once the tree has reached its maximum height, it will instead concentrate on only growing sideways until it has again filled its maximum "volume".<br><br> | |||
It is important to not that fruit trees may go through these stages differently - the red apple tree used in the below example went through a total of 14-16 stages (including growth of filler leaves) and gained the full possible volume. However, fruit trees may skip some of the four directions while growing or even end up in their maximum growth with one half having grown "stunted" - meaning a branch block missing and therefore not reaching the full possible width. They will however, without fail, all reach their maximum possible height. | |||
