How to Plant Mushrooms in Minecraft
Last updated
Ever wondered how to get your own mushroom farm going in Minecraft? You’re in the right place to find out!
Let’s dive into how you can plant mushrooms in Minecraft and grow them into your very own mushroom garden.
Easy Steps to Plant Mushrooms
Mushrooms in Minecraft don’t need sunlight to grow, which is pretty cool. You can plant them inside or in shady spots. All you need is a block with a low light level. Dark places are mushroom paradise!
First, find some mushrooms. You can find them in the darker areas of the Minecraft world, like forests or caves. Once you have your mushrooms, choose a spot that’s not too bright. Mushrooms can’t handle too much light. After that, just place your mushroom on a block. Ta-da! You’ve planted a mushroom.
What You Need to Know to Grow Your Mushrooms
Now, for them to spread and create more mushrooms, the area needs to be dark, but not completely pitch black. Think of it like making your mushrooms cozy and comfortable in a dimly lit room. If you plant them in a place that’s too bright, they won’t grow. Mushrooms love places like the Nether or any shady spot you can create.
If you’re looking to make a massive mushroom, you need both mushrooms and bone meal. Place the mushroom on a suitable block, then use the bone meal on it. Boom! You’ve got yourself a giant mushroom! Remember, giant mushrooms need a bit more space and light to grow, so make sure you’ve got everything set up right.
