How can I get my redstone to activate adjacent pistons?
There are actually a large number of different ways you can do this. Perhaps the simplest is using redstone repeaters, like so:
There's also the design proposed by StrixVaria, which uses elevated redstone:
But there are even more ways you can do this. Here are a few:
Take your pick!
Try this:

- pressure plate-
- redstone+
- redstone on a raised block (the block should be at the same level as the piston)p
- piston
In order to power pistons, you either need the redstone line running directly into the piston, run the redstone line on a raised block, or using redstone repeaters. You can also power an adjacent block using a repeater, which can be very useful for certain applications.
