    Dirt is a great way to cover your tracks, but grass blocks are awesomeER.

    Yes, I made a wheat farm before under a lake, covered the lake up with dirt, sold it to someone, it's still in perfect condition except for the fact that the person only replants his wheat like once a month.

    Sometimes the best method is to just find the most pristine area you can, then set up your home. I had walked out several thousand blocks, found an area without a single block missing, built a tree farm that is massive for a wild home when I was a builder, and it still stands to this day when I view it on the livemap :D

    first about level 30 would be best, not to low that miners run into you to to high it will be found, next CHECK it on live map, this is how most wild houses will be found if anything show up fix it, lastly don't spend to much time there(afk) or your pattern will be obvious on the live map!

    No matter how smart people think they hide their house, they usually make a mistake. Sometimes I go exploring, and I'll see on the live map that there's a torch, or too small of a rock formation, or some other small detail that doesn't happen, and then I go explore it. I usually leave the stuff and replace whatever I broke on the way out. The best disguise I've seen so far is building insanely high into the sky.
