Minecraft:Fern

Template:For Template:Infobox block Ferns are a non-solid plant Minecraft:block found only in certain biomes and have the same characteristics as grass.

Obtaining

Breaking

When broken normally, ferns have a 12.5% chance of dropping 1 unit of Minecraft:wheat seeds when destroyed. This is affected by the Minecraft:Fortune enchantment, dropping 1-3, 1-5, or 1-7 wheat seeds respectively with Fortune I, II, and III.

Ferns can be obtained as an item if mined by Minecraft:shears. Minecraft:Large ferns also drop two ferns when broken using shears. Template:Breaking row

Mob loot

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

Grazing

When a Minecraft:sheep eats a fern, the block is destroyed, and a Minecraft:sheared sheep regrows its Minecraft:wool. Baby sheep graze grass and ferns much more often than adults and mature 1 minute faster when grazing.

Composting

Placing a fern into a Minecraft:composter has a 65% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

Bone meal

Minecraft:Bone meal can be used on a fern to create a Minecraft:large fern.

Color
