What to know

  • Craft Beech Saplings at a Farmer’s Workbench with 5 Life Essence.​​

  • Plant on dirt or grass; they mature in about 2 in-game days over 5 growth stages.​​

  • Beech Trees appear as brown-trunked, less-branched trees with thinner leaves in starting areas.


In Hytale, Beech trees are a reliable source of light-colored wood, but to grow them near your base, you first need to collect their saplings.

What a Beech Sapling is

A Beech Sapling is an item that grows into a full Beech Tree when planted. Beech trees provide softwood logs used in crafting and building. A fully grown Beech Tree completes several growth stages over a few in-game days and drops wood when harvested.

​Mastering Beech Saplings sets up infinite softwood for your Hytale base, fueling early upgrades and builds without wandering far.

How Beech Trees Grow

Beech trees usually go through multiple growth stages and take around two in-game days to become full trees after planting. Growth progresses naturally as time passes while you play.

Tips for optimal growth:

  • Make sure there is enough clear space above and around the sapling so the tree can form without obstruction.
  • Plant saplings in rows or patterns near your base to establish a renewable wood supply.

How to Harvest Beech Trees

Once the tree is fully grown:

  • Chop the base of the tree with a hatchet or axe.
  • The entire tree will collapse, yielding Beech Logs (softwood) and possibly leaf drops.

Beech Logs are essential early-game wood used for crafting and building and can be turned into Softwood Planks at a Builder’s Workbench for construction and upgrades.

Why Beech Saplings are useful in Hytale

Crafting & Building: Beech provides softwood logs that are foundational for upgrades such as the Farmer’s Workbench and furniture.
