Minecraft:Red Mushroom: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 11:09, 25 July 2026

A red mushroom is a Minecraft:fungus found in the Minecraft:Overworld and Minecraft:the Nether. It can only be Template:Control in Minecraft:mycelium, Minecraft:nylium, Minecraft:podzol or darkness, which also allows it to spread over time or receive Minecraft:bone meal to grow into a huge red mushroom.

Obtaining

Breaking

Red mushrooms can be instantly mined with any tool, including by hand.

A red mushroom also breaks instantly and drops as an item if:

the block below it is moved or destroyed
a Minecraft:fluid flows over it
a block next to it changes state, but only when it is not on Minecraft:podzol, Minecraft:mycelium, or Minecraft:nylium and light level is 13 or higher

Template:Breaking row

Natural generation

Red mushrooms naturally generate in poorly lit areas (Minecraft:light level of 12 or less). If this condition is met, each Minecraft:chunk has a Template:Frac (12.5%) chance to generate red mushrooms in the form of Minecraft:random patches.<ref>Template:IN, they rarely generate because they cannot generate underground due to Template:Bug.</ref>

Mushrooms also generate on the surface of a Minecraft:swamp, Minecraft:old growth spruce taiga, Minecraft:old growth pine taiga, or Minecraft:mushroom fields biome, along with anywhere in Minecraft:the Nether. Unlike plants, they are able to generate on top of nearly any block type.

Template:IN, they are commonly found in patches on the Minecraft:Nether roof, and are the only blocks that can generate there.

Minecraft:Witch huts have a Minecraft:flower pot with a red mushroom inside. Mushrooms also generate inside "mushroom farm" rooms in Minecraft:woodland mansions.

Red mushrooms planted on Minecraft:podzol can also be found around Minecraft:bogged and Minecraft:cave spider Minecraft:trial spawners in Minecraft:trial chambers.

Minecraft:Fallen trees can have up to 2 mushrooms generated on them.

Template:Block distribution

Huge mushrooms

Breaking a Minecraft:red mushroom block has a chance of dropping 0-2 red mushrooms. Minecraft:Fortune does not affect the drop rate of mushrooms in any form.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>

Mob loot

Template:Drop sources

Minecraft:Shearing a red Minecraft:mooshroom drops 5 red mushrooms and permanently turns it into a normal Minecraft:cow.

Shearing a Minecraft:bogged drops 2 mushrooms, both of which have a chance to be red.

An Minecraft:enderman holding a red mushroom drops it upon death.

Template:IN, Minecraft:wandering traders have a chance of 8.5% (increased by 1% per level of Minecraft:Looting) to drop 3 red mushrooms when killed while showing the item as trade offer, if the player holds an Minecraft:emerald.

Usage

Planting

Red mushrooms can be planted and grown on blocks that have a full top surface in Minecraft:light levels below 13 and not directly underneath the sky. They cannot be planted on the top surfaces of slabs or Minecraft:stairs.<ref>Template:Bug</ref> For more information, see Minecraft:Opacity/Placement. If planted on Minecraft:mycelium, Minecraft:podzol or Minecraft:nylium, they can stay planted in any light level, including skylight. They grow at the same rate regardless of the light level.<ref name="Fully-Automated Tests of Mushroom Growth at Different Light Levels Using BUD Switch Harvester">http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=ALkf-b7MbBI&t=864s</ref><ref name="Large scale automated test with additional info">Template:Ytl</ref>

Mob food

Red mushrooms can be used to heal or tempt Minecraft:zombie horses.

Huge mushrooms

Template:Main When Minecraft:bone meal is applied to a red mushroom, the mushroom has a chance to grow into a red Minecraft:huge mushroom, provided that it is on a proper block (Minecraft:grass block, Minecraft:dirt, Minecraft:coarse dirt, Minecraft:rooted dirt, Minecraft:mud, Minecraft:muddy mangrove roots, Minecraft:moss block, or Minecraft:pale moss block at a light level of 12 or below; on Minecraft:podzol, Minecraft:mycelium, or Minecraft:nylium at any light level) and is free of Minecraft:solid blocks within 5 blocks directly above the mushroom.

Spread

Template:See also

When receiving a Minecraft:random tick, a red mushroom has a 4% chance of spreading to a nearby block (including even above and below diagonally) if there are fewer than five red mushrooms in a 9×9×3 volume around the original mushroom.

Decoration

Red mushrooms can be planted in a Minecraft:flower pot.
