Mushrooms are fungi that grow and spread in dark areas.

Natural generation

Mushrooms naturally generate in poorly lit areas (light level of 12 or less). If this condition is met, each chunk has ¹⁄₈ (12.5%) chance to generate red mushroom and ¹⁄₄ (25.0%) chance to generate brown mushroom.

Mushrooms can also generate in extremely bright conditions, namely on top of glowstone; this has been strongly considered by non-Mojang sources to be an intentionally programmed feature.

Mushrooms also generate on surface in swamp, giant tree taiga, mushroom fields biomes and anywhere in the Nether.

Witch huts have a flower pot with a red mushroom inside. Mushrooms also generate inside "mushroom farm" rooms in woodland mansions.

Fallen trees

In Bedrock Edition, fallen oak, birch, spruce, and jungle trees have 0–2 mushroom generated on horizontal logs.

From trading

Mushroom can be bought from wandering trader for an emerald.

Usage

Info

Mushrooms can be planted and grown on blocks in light levels below 13 and not directly underneath the sky. If planted on mycelium or podzol, they can stay planted in any light level. Both brown and red mushrooms grow at the same rate regardless of the light level.

Besides being mined directly, mushrooms are dropped as items if:

• the block below them falls, is moved, or destroyed;
• a fluid flows over them;
• it is above light level 12 and a block updates next to it and it is not on podzol or mycelium.

Huge mushrooms

When bone meal is applied to a mushroom, the mushroom has a chance to grow into a huge mushroom of the same color, provided that it is on a proper block (podzol or mycelium) and has enough space (7x7x9). Light level does not matter.

Spread

See also: Tutorials/Mushroom farming

Every game tick, a mushroom has a 1% chance of spreading to an adjacent block (even above and below diagonally) if there are fewer than five mushrooms of the same type in a 9×9×3 volume around the original mushroom.

Light source

Brown mushrooms emit a barely visible light level of 1.

Decoration

Either type of mushroom can be planted in a flower pot.

Composting

Placing a mushroom into a composter has a 65% chance of raising the compost level by 1.
