Minecraft:Leaf Litter

Leaf litter is a thin decorative block resembling fallen leaves. Up to four can be placed in the same block space.

Obtaining

Breaking

Leaf litter can be mined using any tool or without a tool.

A leaf litter is also removed and drops as an item if:

its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed.
Minecraft:water or Minecraft:lava flows into its space.
a Minecraft:piston tries to push it or moves a block into its space.

The amount of leaf litter items dropped is equal to how many were present in the block space beforehand (i.e. a leaf litter block with 3 placed drops 3 leaf litter items when destroyed).

Usage

Placement

Leaf litter can be placed on blocks that have a full solid top surface. Up to four pieces of leaf litter can be placed in a single block space. When placed, a leaf litter faces the location of the player placing it.

Fuel

Leaf litter can be used as fuel for smelting. It burns for 5 seconds, smelting Template:Frac of an item. 1 stack of leaf litter smelts 32 items.

Composting

Using leaf litter on a Minecraft:composter has a 30% chance to raise the compost level by 1. A stack of leaf litter yields an average of 2.74 bone meal.
