What is Bamboo Planks in Minecraft?

How to get Bamboo Planks in Minecraft

The only way to get bamboo planks is by crafting them. This process starts with a trip to a jungle biome. Jungles are the only places in the world where you can find bamboo growing in tall, green stalks. Once you have found a jungle, use a sword or an axe to quickly chop down some bamboo and collect it. After you have the bamboo, the next step is to craft a block of bamboo. Open your inventory's crafting grid or a crafting table and place nine bamboo inside. This will give you one block of bamboo. Now, take that block of bamboo and place it in the crafting grid. For every one block of bamboo you put in, you will get two bamboo planks. This is a different process from other wood types, as you have to craft the block first before you can get the planks.
