    Alright, quick rundown of what this all means again. You can skip this if you want... or don't... I'm just text on a page:

    1. This guide is for items sold per stack at ‘/warp shop’ on Skyblock economy, including details from my perspective on how effective/ineffective a farm is overall.
    2. Any items listed in the sell price will be per stack (AKA - 64 items total).
    3. Average price to set up means the lowest cost to make said farm vs the highest (minimum) cost to make it effective
    4. Return rate means how effective it is at making you money back for the parts you bought to make the farm work
    5. Crop hopper compatible means ‘can a crop hopper be used’. Note: Crop hoppers can auto harvest whatever crops are listed on it within a given chunk
    6. Auto, Semi-Auto or manual means the farming method. Namely, can the farm be auto harvested, can it be semi-auto harvested, or, does it require some good ol' manual labor to make it work. All factors to consider when getting farms
    And now, for the cactus farm selling price guide

    Cactus Farm:

    • Sell price: $36.48

    • Average price to set up: $1,200 to $30,000

    • Return rate: Average

    • Details on farm: The cactus - a great deterrent for mobs and players alike, this spiky block can prove to be quite useful to some players, and isn’t difficult to farm whatsoever

    • Auto, Semi-auto, or Manual: Auto, crop hopper, fences, slabs

    • Crop Hopper Compatible: Yes

    • Crop Hopper Level required: Lvl 1 at least

    • Positives: Cactus is a natural deterrent for any mobs & players that come into contact with it; can be smelted in a furnace for green dye, honestly just looks amazing block wise, can be put in flower pot for decoration, no water required to make it grow, no light level needed for growth, will destroy whatever entity (dropped item) it comes in contact with, no replanting required

    • Negatives: Causes damage over time if left in contact with it, can only grow on sand or red sand, needs at least 1 block gap between sand placed and cactus on sand, doesn’t grow very quickly, even if you have a lot of sand or cactus at your disposal, will destroy whatever entity (dropped item) it comes in contact with

    • Tier level: Ordinary
    • Final thoughts: Cactus is an incredibly useful block for offence, defense, and decoration, but even with a decent amount made per stack, it’s good to begin with, but not great in the long term for making money
