Minecraft:Pumpkin Seeds

Template:For Template:Infobox block Pumpkin seeds are items obtained from pumpkins that can be used to grow pumpkin stems.

Pumpkin stems are plants grown on Minecraft:farmland that, over time, grow Minecraft:pumpkins on dirt, mud and moss blocks adjacent to them.

Obtaining

Breaking

Template:Breaking row

When broken, a pumpkin stem drops 0–3 pumpkin seeds. The chance for pumpkin seeds to drop increases with the stem's age.

Natural generation

Pumpkin stems generate naturally in stem farm rooms in Minecraft:woodland mansions.

Pumpkin stems generate in Minecraft:taiga and Minecraft:snowy taiga Template:Only Minecraft:village farms.

Mob loot

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

Post-generation

Shearing an uncarved pumpkin yields 4 pumpkin seeds Template:In, and 1 Template:In.

Usage

Farming

Template:See also Pumpkin seeds can be planted only on Minecraft:farmland, as stems. Pumpkin stems need a Minecraft:light level of 9 or above to grow (Template:In they need at least an Minecraft:internal light level of 9). Over time, a stem grows through several stages and, at its final growth stage, produces Minecraft:pumpkins on any adjacent Minecraft:dirt, Minecraft:coarse dirt, Minecraft:rooted dirt, Minecraft:grass block, Minecraft:farmland, Minecraft:podzol, Minecraft:mycelium, Minecraft:moss block, Minecraft:pale moss block, Minecraft:mud, or Minecraft:muddy mangrove roots. If a pumpkin is already occupying a spot adjacent to a stem, it does not grow more pumpkins until the pumpkin is removed. A single stem can grow an unlimited number of pumpkins. Pumpkin seeds are affected by Minecraft:bone meal only with respect to stem growth; bone meal does not help produce the actual pumpkins.

Breeding

Like other seeds, pumpkin seeds can be used to breed Minecraft:chickens, lead chickens around, and make baby chickens grow up faster by 10% of the remaining time.

Taming

Like other seeds, pumpkin seeds can be used to tame Minecraft:parrots.

Composting

Placing pumpkin seeds into a Minecraft:composter has a 30% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

Pumpkin stem

A pumpkin stem is the block that is planted on Minecraft:farmland when pumpkin seeds are used on it. It starts underground, and rises up as the plant grows. The stem is colored green when young, and then yellow once fully grown.

The stem curves once a pumpkin has grown from it. A fully-grown single stem connects to any Minecraft:pumpkin in an adjacent square, thus there are 5 possible appearances to a stem. If there are multiple pumpkins it can connect to, it favors the east, then west, north, and south. When the pumpkin is removed, the stem returns to its straight shape.
