Description
The mushroom stem is the central column like block that appears in the big mushroom structures that grow in mushroom fields and in some dark underground areas. It has a clean pale surface and is useful in builds that want a natural organic column with a slightly fibrous texture. Large mushrooms are a distinctive biome feature and the stem is one of the main pieces used when players harvest these huge fungi to make decorative materials. Because mushroom stems are light in tone they are often used as a wood like alternative in fantasy builds and in interiors that need a softer more natural look. In survival mushroom stems can be harvested with care and used as part of food farms or decorative builds and they are renewable if you replant mushroom blocks where conditions allow giant mushrooms to regrow. The stems are not flammable and they provide a nice contrast to darker ceiling blocks and to the vivid caps that crown them. For players who enjoy organic building styles the mushroom stem offers a friendly building block that reads as both natural and crafted.
What is Mushroom Stem?
A mushroom stem is the stalk block of a giant mushroom formation. It is used as a building block and decorative column that carries a pale fibrous look. It fits well in fantasy interiors and in naturalistic builds because of its organic texture.
Where to find Mushroom Stem
You find mushroom stems in the mushroom field biome and under large dark overhangs where giant mushrooms generate. The stems form the trunk of the mushroom and are paired with colorful caps.
How to get Mushroom Stem
Harvest mushroom stems by breaking them with any tool or by hand. In some editions use shears to collect precise pieces. You can regrow giant mushrooms by placing mushroom blocks in a dark suitable area and using bone meal to force growth where allowed.
