'''Coarse dirt''' is a variant of [[Minecraft:dirt]] of which [[Minecraft:grass block]]s cannot spread to.

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Coarse dirt drops itself as an [[Minecraft:item]] when mined using any [[Minecraft:tool]] or by hand, but [[Minecraft:shovel]]s are the quickest.

=== Natural generation ===
[[File:SavannaDirt.jpg|thumb|Coarse dirt found in a savanna biome.]]
Coarse dirt can be found as large patches in the [[Minecraft:windswept savanna]], [[Minecraft:wooded badlands]], and [[Minecraft:old growth taiga]] biomes.

It also generates in mushroom farm rooms in [[Minecraft:woodland mansion]]s and in [[Minecraft:trail ruins]].

{{block distribution}}

=== Mob loot ===
An [[Minecraft:enderman]] holding coarse dirt drops the block upon death.

=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting
|showname=1
|A2= Dirt
|A3= Gravel
|B2= Gravel
|B3= Dirt
|Output= Coarse Dirt,4
|type= Building block
}}

== Usage ==
Coarse dirt has the ability to grow [[Minecraft:sapling]]s, [[Minecraft:sugar canes]], [[Minecraft:mushroom]]s, [[Minecraft:bamboo]], [[Minecraft:flower]]s, and [[Minecraft:sweet berries]], which can be planted directly under appropriate conditions.

Neither [[Minecraft:mycelium]] nor [[Minecraft:Grass Block|grass]] can spread onto coarse dirt.

Coarse dirt can be tilled using a [[Minecraft:hoe]] to become normal dirt. There must be an empty space above the coarse dirt for it to be tilled.

{{control|Using|use}} any type of [[Minecraft:shovel]] on coarse dirt turns it into a [[Minecraft:dirt path]].

=== Mud ===
{{control|Using}} a [[Minecraft:water bottle]], [[Minecraft:splash water bottle]] or [[Minecraft:lingering water bottle]] converts the coarse dirt into [[Minecraft:mud]].

=== Sulfur cube ===
{{In development|section=1|drop=Chaos Cubed}}
[[Minecraft:Sulfur cube]]s have the ability to absorb coarse dirt, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.
