What is the fastest way to get potatoes in Minecraft?
Download Article Download Article Potatoes are a crop in Minecraft PE (Pocket Edition) that can be eaten for health, planted in a garden, and much more. Getting a few potatoes is easy once you know that the quickest way to get them is usually killing zombies, You can find them pre-planted in village gardens, where they can be dug up.
1 Go hunting for zombies at night. If you’re playing in the standard survival mode, enemy zombies will spawn every night. You shouldn’t have to walk far to find one or two once the sun goes down.
Make sure to bring a weapon or two that aren’t likely to break. Swords are a good choice because they are easy to make and do good damage. See our article on making swords in Minecraft for more information.
2 Start killing zombies. You should quickly find a zombie or two. Kill the zombies you see, taking special care if you come across any with ranged weapons or high-level equipment. When killed, zombies may drop one of three items: rotten flesh, carrots, and potatoes.
Be patient. You may need to kill a few zombies before you get your first potato.
If you can’t see any zombies, listen for their telltale growl. If you hear it, you’re definitely close!

Light Sources for Crops – In order to grow crops like wheat, carrots, and potatoes, you need a source of light. Having your farm outdoors ensures that your crops will get plenty of light without having to construct anything; however, using sunlight to grow your crops is not required.
Wheat, carrots, potatoes, and other crops like melons and pumpkins can grow as long as the light level above them is at least 9—it does not have to be sunlight. Torches alone have a light level of 14! (See more light levels in the table below.) The flexibility of light sources for growing crops makes building an underground farm both easy and lucrative.
