I’m trying to grow some large jungle trees right now, but even using bone meal isn’t helping me get them to grow. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong, and I could use some tips!

Make sure your saplings are spaced out correctly. Each one needs room to grow, so if they’re too close together, they won’t reach their full height. Jungle trees can get pretty big—up to 32 blocks tall! Plus, if you want all the branches to flourish, you should ideally give them around a 10×10 space, although they’ll still grow with a 5×5 area if needed.
Don’t forget to check the light levels around your saplings! They need bright light to grow, so if there are any blocks casting shadows above them, that could be a problem. Also, make sure nothing is blocking them from growing laterally.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll clear out anything nearby that might block light.
That makes sense! I’ve tried planting them too closely before and it never worked out. I’ll give them some more space.
