What is Tall Grass in Minecraft?
Tall grass is a two block tall plant that makes the landscape look more lush and overgrown. It has a simple, green, grassy texture. Its main purpose is to be a decorative element that adds variety and a sense of wildness to the world. It is also a source for getting seeds to start a wheat farm. Breaking tall grass has a chance to drop seeds. It is a simple but essential part of the Minecraft landscape, making plains and forests feel more alive.
How to get Tall Grass in Minecraft
Tall grass generates naturally in many Overworld biomes, including plains, savannas, and forests. To collect it as an item, you must use a pair of shears. If you break it with your hand or any other tool, it will just break and might drop seeds, but you will not get the tall grass item itself. Since it is two blocks tall, you only need to shear the bottom half to get the item. You can craft shears from two iron ingots. You can also use bone meal on a grass block to instantly grow a patch of grass and tall grass, which you can then shear to collect a lot of it quickly.
How to use Tall Grass in Minecraft
The main use for tall grass is decoration. You can place it on dirt or grass blocks to make your builds look more natural and overgrown. It is perfect for landscaping gardens, creating meadows, or adding a touch of wildness to a stone path. Because it is two blocks tall, it is great for adding height and variety to your plant arrangements. Its other main use is to get seeds. When you break tall grass without shears, there is a chance it will drop one wheat seed. This is a very common way to start a farm. Tall grass can also be placed in a composter, where it has a medium chance of adding a layer to the compost, which will eventually turn into bone meal.
