'''Nether wart crops''' are found in [[Nether Fortress/Structure|nether fortresses]] and [[Bastion Remnant|bastions]] and is used to grow nether wart in [[Soul Sand|soul sand]]. == Obtaining == === Breaking === Nether wart can be mined instantly with any tool. A fully mature nether wart crop yields 2–4 nether wart. This is increased by one for each level of [[Fortune]], this allows for a maximum of 7 nether warts dropping from one crop. Less mature stages drop one nether wart, even with the Fortune enchantment. === Natural generation === Nether wart can generate in [[nether fortress]]es in [[soul sand]] gardens around stairwells. Nether wart can also generate in the courtyards of housing unit [[bastion remnant]]s. Due to only spawning in these specific structures, it's entirely possible for a nether fortress or bastion remnant to generate without nether wart (though they may still appear in the chests that generate in the fortress). {| class="wikitable" |+ !Location !Description !Image |- |{{anchor|Nether Fortress}}'''Nether Fortress''' |Nether wart can be found growing near stairwells in small soul sand gardens. |[[File:Nether wart garden.png|thumb|Nether wart growing in a nether fortress.]] |- |{{anchor|Bastion Remnant}}'''Bastion Remnant''' |Nether wart can be found growing in the central courtyard of each of the sections of piglin housing unit bastions. |[[File:Bastion Courtyard.png|thumb|Nether wart growing in a bastion remnant.]] |} <br> === Chest loot === {{LootChestItem|nether-wart}} == Usage == === Brewing ingredient === Nether wart's primary purpose is to [[brew]] the [[Potion|awkward potion]], the base for all potions, but optional for Weakness. {{brewing |showname=1 |Nether Wart |Awkward Potion |base=Water Bottle }} === Crafting ingredient === {{crafting usage}} === Trading === Master-level cleric [[villager]]s buy 22 nether warts for an [[emerald]] as part of their trades. === Farming === {{main|Tutorials/Nether Wart farming}} When planted on [[soul sand]], nether wart grows through four stages, though the middle two stages use the same texture (the hitbox of stage 3 is three pixels taller). {{IN|java}}, the exact age can be seen using the [[debug screen]], and the ages range from 0 to 3. Each random tick, nether wart has a 10% chance of growing one stage. At default random tick speed, each nether wart grows one age step approximately every {{convert|13653|ticks|minutes}} on average, and fully grows from planting to harvest every {{convert|40960|ticks|minutes}} on average. The growth rate is not affected by light or any other environmental factors. [[Bone meal]] cannot be used on the nether wart. Nether wart can only be planted on [[soul sand]]. It cannot be planted on [[soul soil]]. It can grow in any [[dimension]]. Nether wart is ready to harvest when it reaches its fourth stage (age:3). Breaking a fully grown nether wart drops 2 to 4 nether wart, while an immature one drops a single nether wart. Using a tool enchanted with fortune increases the maximum number of nether wart dropped by 1 per level, for a maximum of 7 for a tool enchanted with [[Fortune|Fortune III]]. === Composting === Placing a nether wart into a [[composter]] has a 30% chance of raising the compost level by 1. == Sounds == {{Sound table/Block/Nether wart}} == Data values == === ID === {{edition|java}}: {{ID table |edition=java |showforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Nether Wart |spritetype=block |nameid=nether_wart |translationkey=block.minecraft.nether_wart,item.minecraft.nether_wart |foot=1}} {{edition|bedrock}}: {{ID table |edition=bedrock |firstcolumnname=Nether Wart |shownumericids=y |showforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Block |spritename=nether-wart |spritetype=block |nameid=nether_wart |id=115 |form=block |itemform=item.nether_wart}} {{ID table |displayname=Item |spritename=nether-wart |spritetype=item |nameid=nether_wart |id=294 |form=item |foot=1}} === Block states === {{see also|Block states}} {{/BS}} == Advancements == {{load advancements|A Seedy Place}} == History == {{History|java}} {{History||1.0.0|snap=Beta 1.9 Prerelease|[[File:Nether Wart Age 0 JE1.png|32px]] [[File:Nether Wart Age 1-2 JE1.png|32px]] [[File:Nether Wart Age 3 JE1.png|32px]] [[File:Nether Wart (item) JE1.png|32px]] Added nether wart.}} {{History|||snap=Beta 1.9 Prerelease 3|Nether wart can now be brewed in a [[water bottle]] to create an [[awkward potion]].}} {{History||1.3.1|snap=12w27a|Nether wart can now grow outside of [[the Nether]].}} {{History|||snap=1.3|[[File:Nether Wart (item) JE2 BE1.png|32px]] The item texture has been changed.}} {{History||1.4.2|snap=12w36a|Nether wart can now be used to breed [[chicken]]s.}} {{History||1.6.1|snap=13w18a|Nether wart is now found in the new [[chest]]s in [[nether fortress]]es.}} {{History||1.8|snap=14w06a|[[File:Nether Wart Age 0 JE2.png|32px]] [[File:Nether Wart Age 1-2 JE2.png|32px]] [[File:Nether Wart Age 3 JE2.png|32px]] Nether wart crops are now a pixel higher, likely as an accidental result of model conversion.
