Maybe I discovered something already existing but I can't find anyone talking sbout or using this method so I leave it here.
Creepers are Minecraft most iconic, dangerous and annoying enemy. We all know their explosive shenanigans. So I decided to ask how you deal with craters that they leave after explosion, also known as creeper holes. Considering that explosion completely destroys a few blocks and it almost never enough to fully fill them.
I honestly have a pretty weird and kinda efficient way of filling creeper holes, but only for biomes mainly covered in grass blocks. Is anyone also use it? I created this method after I found out how to make more dirt in skyblock. And what do you think it is? Of coarse it's combining dirt with gravel. Yes I make coarsed dirt. (Get it? I made a foreshadowing pun!)
But before you think I'm a that player that just gonna leave this never becoming grass block patches of coarse dirt, you need to know last step of this method. Secret hoe usage. I made coarse dirt into farmland which just becomes dirt if put blocks above it ir jump on it. So yeah, I'm just carrying a stack of gravel from my cave explorations and hoe for coarse dirt converting, for any biome except badlands, desert and mangrove swamp.
So yeah this is my method. What is yours? Do you even refill creeper holes, or maybe you just light the inside and cover it? Share your methods in the comments!

fill them with water and sea grass

Oh and maybe sea pickles so it produces light.
Also cool icon, I love transformers too. My favourites are 1. Transformers Prime 2. Cyberverse 3. Animated 4. G1

Prime is definitely my favorite show, when I was younger the original bayverse trilogy got me into the franchise and then the autism took over

What took me over is something that has some similarities yet really different. I have ADHD. Also do you like Vehicons? They are super adorable and cool looking. Or Starscream dynamics with Shockwave, Soundwave and Knockout?

I just leave them for my future self to deal with...

I'm guilty of it too, but i still want the place around my house to not look like exploded minefield

Lol, I usually just end up collecting enough of the dirt that I can build and entire flat above it, so that I can build bases on top of it!

I try to avoid triggering creepers because I know full well I'm just gonna half-fill the holes and they'll become part of the landscape. If I don't have enough blocks, I fill the space under a 1-2 block layer of dirt with cobblestone. Or just put a torch under that if I'm extra lazy. Looks indistinguishable from before unless you dig.

Heres some ideas:
1: make it look like a meteor struck there
2: fill it with water to make it into a pond
3: (if you have multiple creeper holes in a single area) make it look like a warzone

Also i seen people place above flying island with a tree or flowers, pretty cool thing too.
You can alsoput some cobblestone or mossy cobblestone to make a firest rocks like in mega taiga
Or even make it an entrance to the mines

"If you can't defeat creeper holes/make them join your build" - me after reading you wise comment

It depends how much dirt I have.
If I have a lot I fill it all in and if I only have a bit I cover the top (even though I could just get more from off the ground)

I fill creeper craters with the blocks dropped, and slightly terraform nearby land for more blocks if I don’t have enough.

That's a classic. I guess mojang kinda intended it when you are talking about this solution. You linda give me a realisation. Cause why would they otherwise made that creeper don't delete some blocks from existence. Thanks

Maybe fill with any block (the cheapest one), and just cover with blocks that match the environment

Water and turn it into a farm. Or just dirt.

Fill em up hard

just light everything, in my case i use invisible light level 4, so the world didn't glow at night and its totally safe

dont fill it all the way leave room inside is how i do it

patch it up with assorted glazed terracotta blocks and leave it hollow with no light inside

Kill the creeper before it explode! >:3
But if I find any then it depends what I'm doing, like if my inventory is filled with 3 thousand flowers I'm not gonna stop what I'm doing and fill it in all the way, usually I quickly use up whatever blocks the explosion left and finish filling it in later.

"That was horrible! Your wish is horrible! YOU'RE HORRIBLE! YOU'RE AN IRREDEEMABLE MONSTER! LET ME JOIN YOU!

I never did a wish... but you can only join team unnamed if we see your work is good enough.

Also it was a meme from animated film Puss in boots last wish

Ok, I'm reaching 500 banners and I have around 40 ready to be released, does that count? Oh and more like 400, others sre shields, and also I will sort by themes such as: structures, landscapes, mobs, weapons and items, particles and etc, blocks, ocean, raid vs village, ocean, Nether, End, Overworld, nodded stuff, and my favourites.

texture packs. skins. maps. anything else.



lol

Make the creeper holes into a pondπ.

Interesting apporoach…
Are you a fan of ice or water buckets?
Also, do you use kelp?

Both, never used kelp though, I should try it.

i just cover it up, leaving a hollow space underneath, but thats only if it's somewhere important, like, if its in da middle of nowhere, i jut leave it, and it just becomes apart of the terrain

Hopefully you at least place a torch or two in the hollow…

nope! XD

same

Uhhh I think I'm a half fill sort, although if it's the middle of somewhere that I don't really care much about I might only bother because I want to empty my inventory of the junk I was just forced to pick up :/
At my base, since I usually have a surplus of cobblestone, I fill with cobblestone and then cover with whatever I'm supposed to be covering with.
I mean I don't often blow up creepers near my base, the only times I do blow them up is if I am overwhelmed in a fight (which since my base is lit up doesn't happen there very often) thus unable to keep track of all the stuff going on around, or if dealing with them is too much of a pain and I lead them out into water to let them blow up. What can I say, I have been trained To Never Let Them Near Me.

Good training π
Also cobble has a decent balst resistance (helps if that particular area is peculiarly subject to incursiosn)

Usually used random blocks (Cobble, gravel, diorite and cobbled deepslate) to fill it in to ground level. Then use dirt to cover the mess of uglyness.

Kintsugi, the ancient Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with lacquer mixed with gold

That must end up with a nice looking lawn/greensward/glacis for your bases

I don't lol

i either completely fill it in with dirt and sometimes have to go get more dirt from a hillside idc about somewhere...
or if i'm feeling lazy i just fill the top layer with dirt........
but your way seems much more efficient!!

Take the fallen blocks and fill it in with those. If it's somewhere important, nice looking, or a place I frequent i'll use extra blocks

Most preferred method is to avoid the issue by killing creepers with a bow… no hole, no problem
Dumping a water bucket between oneself and the creeper can either move it out of range or make it explode in water (no block breakage)
If worst comes to grim, a wee bit of extemporaneous terraforming will provide enough blocks todisguise (if not prefecly fill) the divet.
The main thing is not to create a dark room where mobs can spawn because finding these again when one gets to spawn proofing is annoying.
