Minecart timer

			My opinion is that making a timer is pretty much useless unless you will be staying in that particular chunk forever. Buttons work the best because you can just hit it whenever you have been working in the chunk for a bit. Also, timers will not last forever, eventually due to server lag and restarts the timer will stop. Buttons are the way to go.

			Use BUD switches...melon pops as soon as it grows. Not the most space efficient, but the most time efficient (when looking at a single melon)

			Not to mention timers can be broken with a command.

			So I'm getting the feeling that redstone enthusiasts will NOT be able to try out their latest-and-greatest inventions that involve multiple timers and/or pulsers. Such a shame. Anyway, they are free to do that on SSP.

Thats how I have done mine, but I don't have a bud switch on 1 pumpkin.
I have set up my pumpkin farm and then to the side I have a bud switch, this has 3 melons around it that when 1 grows activates the farm.
 I also added a on/off switch so when I leave I can turn it off.
