How to build a simple manual crop farm (No redstone)

Just another starter Minecraft tutorial.

Step 1: Gather the building blocks

36 cobblestone walls
9 cobblestone slabs
1 lever
2 trapdoors
1 cobblestone stair
3 ladders
4 signs
2 buckets of water (for an infinite water source)

Step 2: Building it

Dig a 11 by 11 square

Dig a 2 block deep cross in the middle

Add 4 signs on the top end of this "cross" and fill with water as shown

Continue the water by digging a hole and add 3 ladders as shown

Add 4 blocks on the corners and walls over the water

Fill the cross with dirt

Build the following structure using stairs, slabs, a lever and a waterlogged trapdoor.

Place a slab over the water

Place a trapdoor on the ladders

Step 3: Using it

To use it, it's very simple. Go on the middle platform and enter sneak mode. Then place all your crops. When the crops are ready, pull the lever to harvest everything.

Plant your crops

Harvest them

Collect them

Conclusion

Do we really need a conclusion for that? It's just a manual cropfarm. Anyway, I like it because:

You don't have water everywhere (which takes space)
You don't have to go on the field to plant the crops
You don't have to collect everything at hand

Also, don't forget ou may need to place some torches in the area, otherwise mobs could spawn inside your farm and water could freeze.

Hope you enjoyed. Have a great day!
