So, how exactly do you make those funky fungi flourish in Minecraft? Let’s dive into the simple steps and learn how to turn your Minecraft base into a mushroom haven.
The Short Answer: Growing Mushrooms in Minecraft
Growing mushrooms in Minecraft is surprisingly easy but does require the right conditions. First off, mushrooms can grow in any dimly lit area. This means they thrive in light levels of 12 or less. They won’t grow under direct sunlight but will do just fine in the shade or during nighttime. Remember, mushrooms can spread to adjacent blocks, given they are also in a low enough light level.
You can plant mushrooms on almost any solid block (though they prefer mycelium or podzol for faster growth). If you’re looking to grow huge mushrooms, you’ll need more space and a bit of bone meal. Simply place your mushroom on either a block of dirt, grass block, podzol, or mycelium, then use bone meal on it. Instantly, you’ll see a giant mushroom sprout up, ready for harvesting!
