Weeping Vines

Weeping vines are plant blocks found in the Nether.

Natural generation
Weeping vines generate naturally on huge crimson fungi in the crimson forest biome.

A huge fungus grown by bone meal on a crimson fungus also has weeping vines growing on it.

Growth
Each random tick, weeping vines have a 10% chance of growing one block downward. At default random tick speed, each plant grows approximately every 13653 ticks. Weeping vines stop growing once they reach the ground or when the block reaches an block state of 25, whichever is first.

Obtaining
Weeping vines can be mined instantly with any tool.

Usage
Weeping vines can be placed on, and grow from, the bottom of a block. The bottom-most vine block always has a starting age value of 0, which increments every time the block grows. If the bottom-most vine block has an age below 25, it continues to grow given that there is free space below the vine. When the vine does grow, a new vine block with an incremented age value is placed beneath it.

Weeping vines can be climbed by standing in them and holding the key. If there is a solid block behind the weeping vines, the key can also be used.

Loot
Weeping vines have a $1/3$ chance to drop a single weeping vine when broken. Up to two additional weeping vines may drop per level of Fortune, though the chances of any drop occuring are not increased.
