What is a farm?
An easy way for one player to gain loads of bricks in one go is to create what is known as a farm. This involves taking a group of high value blocks down to one dig tool hit, in an efficient manner. A granite block, for example, gives nearly 100 bricks, but takes 14 dig tool hits each to break. By using a farm, you can get over 2000 bricks from just 53 dig tool hits.

The most efficient way to make a farm is to find a 3x3x3 cube of the material you want to farm, and then dig to the centre block. From there, you use splash damage weapons to damage all the blocks simultaneously. until it is one or two hits from breaking with a dig tool.

No perks are being considered in this guide, but it is worth mentioning that some perks will change the value gained from a farm, and some perks will change the amount of hits and ammo needed to create a farm.

(The guide image is a placeholder, I stole it from one of Karp's old video guides on farming)
Block Stats
The following blocks are what is usually used in farms:

Concrete
-Takes 3 dig tool hits to destroy
-Gives 19 bricks each
-Gives 513 bricks from a full 3x3x3 farm

Stone
-Takes 4 dig tool hits to destroy
-Gives 25 bricks each
-Gives 675 bricks from a full 3x3x3 farm

Granite
-Takes 14 dig tool hits to destroy
-Gives 88 bricks each
-Gives 2376 from a full 3x3x3 farm
-Dynamite reduces granite from taking 14 dig tool hits to 4 dig tool hits
Cogwheel
Cogwheel will be using his cannon to create any farms.

The LMB fire of his cannon does more direct damage to the block it is actually hitting, and as such, that block will be destroyed before the rest of the farm. If using the LMB, the block will need to be replaced with a building block once it has been destroyed to finish the farm.

The RMB fire of his cannon does splash damage in an + pattern. This means that only some of the farm will be reduced to one hit.

Concrete
2x RMB cannonfire
5x LMB cannonfire (have to replace the target block after 3 shots)

Stone
2x RMB cannonfire
5x LMB cannonfire (have to replace the target block after 3 shots)

Granite
10x RMB cannonfire
27x LMB cannonfire (have to replace the target block after 14 shots)
Dynamite 2x RMG cannonfire
Dynamite 5x LMB cannonfire (have to replace the target block after 3 shots)
Sweet Science
Sweet Science uses a fully charged Blitz Stance dash to create farm.

It is worth noting that Sweet Science does more damage to target block than to blocks hit by splash damage, but it is not important unless farming granite.

Concrete
1x RMB Charged Blitz Stance

Stone
1x RMB Charged Blitz Stance (Reduces all blocks to 2 dig tool hits)

Granite
6x RMB Charged Blitz Stance (Reduces all blocks to 2 dig tool hits; Aim at different blocks within the farm for 2 of the dashes, to avoid breaking granite with the dash.)
Dynamite 1x RMB Charged Blitz Stance
Roly Poly Fat Fat
Roly uses her RMB cannonfire to create farms.

Keep in mind that the RMB function uses 2 ammo in one shot.

Concrete
2x RMB cannon

Stone
2x RMB cannon

Granite
10x RMB cannon
Dynamite 2x RMB cannon
Kreepy the Klown
Kreepy uses LMB bananas to create farm.

Concrete
2x LMB bananas

Stone
2x LMB bananas

Granite
10x LMB bananas
Dynamite 2x LMB bananas
Astarella
Astarella uses her explosive saucers to create farms.

Concrete
2x saucers

Stone
3x saucers

Granite
12x saucers
Dynamite 2x saucers
Dream Genie
Genie uses her Ifrits Grudge weapon to create farms.

Concrete
4x LMB Ifrits Grudge (have to replace the target block after 2 shots)
1x LMB Ifrits Grudge 1x RMB Ifrits Grudge (have to replace the target block after 1 shots)

Stone
4x LMB Ifrits Grudge (have to replace the target block after 2 shots)
1x LMB Ifrits Grudge 1x RMB Ifrits Grudge (have to replace the target block after 1 shots)

Granite
17x LMB Ifrits Grudge (have to replace the target block after 9 shots
7x LMB Ifrits Grudge (have to replace the target block after 6 shots
Dynamite 4x LMB Ifrits Grudge (have to replace the target block after 2 shots)
1x LMB Ifrits Grudge 1x RMB Ifrits Grudge (have to replace the target block after 1 shots)
Vander Graaf
Vander uses his lightning grenades in order to make farms.

While I REALLY recommend against it, Vander can use his RMB grenades to make farms. This is, however, both inefficent (due to reload time) and has a strange splash damage pattern, so not all blocks will be necessarily 1 hit. Regardless, I'll put the instructions here as well.

Concrete
4x LMB grenades (have to replace the target block after 3 shots
1x RMB grenades 2x LMB grenades

Stone
4x LMB grenades (have to replace the target block after 3 shots
1x RMB grenades 1x LMB grenades

Granite
18x LMB grenades (have to replace the target block after 14 shots
8x RMB grenades
Dynamite 4x LMB grenades (have to replace the target block after 3 shots
Dynamite 1x RMB grenades 1x LMB grenades

NB: The second method of farming concrete is a bit strange, so I'd love it if you guys checked on that and confirmed if that is correct, as well as the second method of farming stone.
Sergeant "Sarge" Stone
Sarge can make farms with either his grenades or his rocket launcher. They seem to do block damage in the same fashion, pretty much (i.e. same amount of damage, same splash damage pattern).

Concrete
2x grenades
2x rockets
1x grenade 1x rocket

Stone
2x grenades
2x rockets
1x grenade 1x rocket

Granite
10x grenades
10x rockets (have to replace the target block after 7 shots)
4x grenade 6x rocket (numbers can be adjusted, but this is the fastest combination, without perks)
Dynamite 2x grenades
Dynamite 2x rockets
Dynamite 1x grenade 1x rocket
