This article is about the block created by sculk catalysts. For other sculk-related blocks and mobs, see sculk family.
Sculk is a block found abundantly in the deep dark or converted from other blocks by a sculk catalyst. Like most of the rest of the sculk family it drops experience when broken by a tool that is not enchanted with Silk Touch.

Natural generation[]
Sculk are naturally generated in patch formations within the deep dark biome.
Post-generation[]
Sculk blocks generate when a mob dies within 8 blocks of a sculk catalyst, replacing blocks in the area with the sculk_replaceable tag, which includes the surface materials of most biomes in all three dimensions.
Usage[]
Sculk blocks are primarily used for decoration. They have an animated texture that consists of glowing spots, but they do not illuminate the surroundings. It has a similar texture of an end portal viewed from above.
Sculk blocks near sculk catalyst are also used for sculk growth (click link for more details), which can produce more sculk blocks, sculk sensors and sculk shriekers.

'''A very fine item''' was a joke item from [[Java Edition 20w14∞]], found only in the {{code|isolation}} dimension.
== Appearance ==
The texture of a very fine item resembles the side face of a grass block with the words "Home Sweet Home" written on it. Unlike most items, its texture is 64x64 pixels, rather than the usual 16x16.
== Obtaining ==
=== Dimension ===
A very fine item can only be obtained from an item frame in the {{Code|isolation}} dimension. There is a maximum of 1 fine item that can be found legitimately in any world.
=== Cheats/Creative mode ===
This item can't be found in the creative inventory, but it can be middle-click duplicated in creative mode or given with the {{Code|code=give <target> minecraft:fine_item <amount>}} command.
== Usage ==
This item cannot be placed or used in any way other than a trophy. It can still be inserted and/or rotated inside of an item frame.

A '''sign''' is a non-solid [[block]] that displays text and can be placed on the top or side of other blocks. A '''hanging sign''' is a decorative block that also displays text, and can be placed underneath blocks or with a solid self-supporting bracket. The text of both types of signs can be customized with [[dye]]s and [[glow ink sac]]s.
== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Signs can be broken with any tool or without a tool, but an [[axe]] is fastest.
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Sign|sprite=oak-sign|Axe|foot=1|item=1}}
A sign or a hanging sign also breaks and drops itself as an [[item]] if the block the sign is attached to is moved, removed or destroyed. However, a wall hanging sign will stay here if the block the hanging sign is attached to is removed.<ref>{{bug|MC-256501|||WAI}}</ref>
If a sign is broken while being edited, the player continues to edit the sign<ref>{{bug|MC-117815}}</ref>, although {{in|bedrock}} breaking the sign stops the editing operation.
=== Natural generation ===
An oak sign can be found in [[igloo]] basements. Spruce signs can be found in taiga [[village]] houses, as part of a chair.
=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|oak-sign,oak-hanging-sign,spruce-sign,spruce-hanging-sign}}
=== Crafting ===
[[The player]] can place six stripped [[log]] [[block]]s at the bottom half of the crafting table and place two [[chain]]s on the top-left and top-right slots to create hanging signs. This crafting recipe will create six hanging signs. Hanging signs can only be crafted with stripped logs or [[stem]]s; non-stripped wood cannot be used to craft hanging signs.

== Usage ==
Signs can be used to display text; they can be used to label storage, display information to other players or note areas of interest. Signs are also not destroyed by [[water]] or [[lava]] and therefore may be used to control the flow of these fluids.
=== Placement ===
==== Signs ====
Signs may be placed on the top or side of other [[block]]s (including semi-solid and non-solid blocks such as [[fence]]s, [[Trapdoor|trapdoors]] and other signs). To place a sign, {{control|use}} a sign [[item]] while pointing at the block the sign should be attached to, enter the desired text (or none), and click the "Done" button or press "escape" on a keyboard (or press × {{in|bedrock}}, {{xbtn|b}} on an Xbox controller, {{psbtn|o}} on a PlayStation controller, or {{nsbutton|B}} on a Nintendo Switch controller. Closing the virtual keyboard on a mobile device also exits the typing menu). To place a sign on a block that can be interacted with by the {{control|use}} control (for example, [[chest]]s, [[note block]]s, etc.), {{control|sneak}} while placing the sign.
Signs on the top of a block stand on a short post and face toward the player who placed it, in any of 16 different directions. Signs placed on the side of a block simply float there, even if the block doesn't make contact with the sign.
Even if placed on a vertical surface, a sign may not co-exist in the same block of air as any other item, despite not necessarily visibly obstructing eachother.
For more information about the blocks signs can be placed on, see [[Opacity/Placement]].
==== Hanging signs ====
Hanging signs can be placed in three different ways:
* Placing a hanging sign on the side of a block will result in it being placed with a self-supporting bracket, which allows it to float without any supporting block. This version can be placed in four different directions.
* Placing a hanging sign on the bottom of a block will result in the sign hanging below the block.
** If the block is wide enough, the chains holding the sign will be parallel. This version can be placed in four different directions.
** If the block is too narrow, the chains will meet together in a upwards arrow shape. This version is also placed if the player is {{control|sneaking}} when placing a hanging sign below a wide-enough block. This version can be placed in sixteen different directions.
=== Text ===
[[File:Oak Sign GUI.png|thumb|240px|Oak Sign editing.]]
Placing a sign opens an editor interface resembling a magnified view of the sign. Up to four lines of text can then be entered using a keyboard (hardware or on-screen). The editor supports limited editing, including moving the cursor and inserting and deleting characters. {{IN|bedrock}}, [[formatting codes]] can also be used to apply decorative effects such as color, bold, italic and underline to various bits of the text. Depending on the edition and platform in use, copy and paste operations may be supported and the editor may also support keyboard entry of Alt-codes for displaying Unicode characters.
Text can be added to the back side of a sign by interacting with the that side of the sign after placing it and editing the front.
Signs can be waxed by {{Control|use|text=using}} a [[honeycomb]] on it. Once waxed, a sign cannot be unwaxed or edited.
After placing and affixing text on a sign, a player can change the text color by {{control|using}} a [[dye]] on it. When colored with dye, the text color may differ from any color specified by formatting codes.{{Info needed|How does this work? Does the dye affect all the text? One line? One word? Does dye override all formatting codes, including font effects?}}
[[File:Glow Ink Sign with Orange Dye JE2.png|thumb|216px|Oak sign with glow ink and orange dye applied in {{JE}}.]]
A player can {{control|use}} a [[glow ink sac]] on a sign to make its text glow. The glowing text is not affected by lighting. The player can use a regular black [[ink sac]] on the sign to remove the glowing effect.

In [[Creative]] mode, the combination {{key|Ctrl}} + {{control|pick block}} on Windows/Linux, or {{key|cmd}} + {{control|pick block}} on macOS, can be used to copy an already-placed sign, including its text (with decorations), into the player's inventory.
A dyed sign facing east or west will have its text appear more saturated and bright than a sign facing north or south. However, it is actually the sign that is dimmer, because ''Minecraft'''s lighting engine uses side lighting to make the world appear less flat, but the text on signs is not affected by this.
{{IN|bedrock}}, inappropriate words or phrases in a sign's text are displayed as asterisks.
{{IN|java}}, signs can be created with [[Commands#Raw JSON Text|JSON text]], which allows complex formatting (colors, bold, italic, etc.), hover and click events, localized translation (for ''Minecraft'' technical terms, like "Redstone Repeater", otherwise translations must be provided in language files in resource packs), and the incorporation of scoreboard values into text. Use the {{cmd|data merge block}} command to create or alter JSON signs.
: Example: {{cmd|long=1|data merge block ~ ~1 ~ <nowiki>{front_text:{ color:"green", messages:[ '{"selector":"@p", "bold":false, "italic":false, "underlined":false, "strikethrough":false, "obfuscated":false}' , '{"text":"Second Line"}']}}}}
Signs can post the success count of JSON text hover and click events to [[scoreboard]] objectives. The objectives to be used can be specified by running the {{cmd|execute store}} command or by modifying the sign's NBT data directly with the {{cmd|data merge block}} command.
=== Interaction ===
Signs act as though they have a {{control|use}} action, so the [[player]] is unable to place [[block]]s or use [[item]]s while the cursor is pointed at them without {{control|sneaking}}.
Signs are destroyed and drop as an item when pushed by a [[piston]].{{Only|bedrock}}
Signs are non-solid and have no collision, so [[item]]s and [[mob]]s can move through sign blocks. Other [[block]]s (including other signs) can be placed on any edge of a sign.
[[Water]] and [[lava]] flow around signs. Lava can create [[fire]] in [[air]] blocks next to signs as if the signs were flammable, but the signs do not burn (and cannot be burned by other methods either, except {{in|be}}).
=== Fuel ===
Wooden signs can be used as a fuel in [[furnace]]s, smelting an [[item]] per sign.
=== Note Blocks ===
Signs can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce a "bass" sounds.

This variation is called an "empty map". It does not show location markers. It is intended for cloning and zooming locator maps without having to consume an additional [[compass]] (thereby saving [[iron ingot]]s and [[redstone dust]]), but it can also be {{Control|use|text=activated}} and later converted to a locator map by combining it with a compass on an [[anvil]], [[crafting table]], or [[cartography table]].

=== Natural generation ===
==== Chest loot ====
{{LootChestItem|empty-map,map
}}
=== Cartography table ===
A map can also be created using a single paper on a [[cartography table]] to create an empty map, or a paper with a compass for an empty locator map.{{only|bedrock}}
=== Starting map ===
{{exclusive|bedrock|section=1}}
When creating a new world {{in|bedrock}}, the player can enable the "Starting Map" option to spawn with an empty locator map in the hotbar. The map's zoom scale is 1:8. The map is updated only while the player holds it.
=== Trading ===
Novice-level cartographer [[Villager|villagers]] sell a single empty map for 7 [[Emerald|emeralds]] as their trades.
{{IN|java}}, cartographer villagers may give players with the [[Hero of the Village]] effect an empty map.
== Usage ==
{{See also|Tutorials/Mapping}}
=== Mapping ===
Crafting a map creates an empty map. The map is drawn for the first time when it is held and used (with ''{{control|use item}}''). This map can then be adjusted to different zoom levels. After conversion to a drawn map item, it starts to draw a top-down view of the player's surroundings, with North pointing to the top of the map. A pointed oval pointer indicates the player's position on the map, and moves in real-time as the player moves across the terrain shown on the map. The map does ''not'' center on the player when created, rather, the world is broken up into large invisible grid squares, and the map displays the area of whichever grid square it is in when it is first used. For example, if a player uses a new map in a certain grid square, and then moves a distance away and uses another fresh map but is still within the same grid square, both maps appear identical. To make a map that is not identical to the first one, the player would have to move outside of the edges of the first map (because then they would be in a new grid square). This way, no two maps of the same size can ever partially overlap and every map can display only a fixed area.
To record the world on a map, that specific map must be held in the player's hands while the player moves around the world. The world is recorded as-is during exploration, meaning that if the world is modified, a player must revisit the area while holding the map to update the map's view. Maps can also be [[Map#Cloning|cloned]]. If a player holds a map whose one or more clones are on display in item frames, updates are made on all clone-connected maps.
Other players are displayed on the map only if they have a map in their inventory cloned from the one being looked at. When placing a map into an [[item frame]], the map displays with a green pointer shown at the location of the item frame. This is to help the player see where they are in relation to the area that the map is showing. If the player leaves a map in an item frame and views a clone of it, the green pointer remains in the spot of the framed copy. This can be used to set up waypoints. Unexplored areas are transparent, making the item frame visible.
When the player leaves the area shown on a specific map, the player pointer transforms into a white dot that moves on that map. The marker shrinks to a smaller white dot if the player is far from the map's center: the area is 320 by 320 blocks per scale factor. The dot moves along the edge of the map to show the relative location of the player. However {{in|bedrock}}, the pointer remains as an arrow but shrinks until the player is near the area shown on the map.
While maps in [[the Nether]] work, they show only the red-and-gray pattern, regardless of the blocks placed. The only useful function is finding where the player is in relation to placed framed maps, which show as green pointers. Additionally, the player pointer rapidly spins and is not a good indicator of direction. Placing a [[banner]] in [[the Nether]] still shows it on the map as usual. Having a smaller map image while riding a [[strider]] in the Nether can help one to see one's footing while traveling over [[lava]].
{{IN|java}}, when using a map from another dimension, the map shows the player's position and direction when they were last in the dimension of the map. {{IN|bedrock}}, however, the player can use maps from one dimension while in another dimension. For locator maps, the place marker changes color depending on the dimension that the player is currently in (white for the Overworld, red for [[the Nether]], and magenta for [[the End]]). An Overworld map in the Nether shows the player's corresponding location and direction in the Overworld.<ref name=multiverse>{{ytl|EpP1diZdEdI}}</ref> Similarly, a Nether Map in the Overworld shows the player's corresponding location in the Overworld, but the place marker spins, just like a Nether map in the Nether. An Overworld map in the End shows the world spawn.<ref name=multiverse/> A Nether map cannot be used in the End — the map appears, but the place marker is not shown anywhere — and similarly, an End map cannot be used in the Overworld or the Nether.
A player can make a large piece of pixel art (128×128) facing upward, center a map on it, and place that map in an [[item frame]] to create a custom picture. Locking is recommended. See [[Map item format#Map Pixel Art]] for details on the techniques.
Maps display as a mini-map when held in the off-hand, or if the off-hand slot is occupied; the map is full-sized only when held in the dominant hand with both hands free.
A map always positions itself facing towards North when placed horizontally within an item frame regardless of how the map is placed.

Maps consist of square pixels arranged like pixels in a 128×128 square pattern, with each pixel representing a square portion of land. {{IN|java}}, the [[Map item format#Color table|color of a map pixel]] generally matches the color of the most common [[opaque]] block in the corresponding area, as seen from the sky. 'Minority blocks' in the target area have no effect on the color of the pixel, thus small features tend to be undetectable on zoomed-out maps.
{{IN|bedrock}}, the [[Map item format#Color table|color of a map pixel]] instead matches the single top-most opaque block in a grid sized by the map magnification pixel size (see the table in the "Player marker and pointer" section below). For example, a 3/4 magnification map has a pixel size of 8x8 blocks; this means the map will read only the top-most opaque blocks at the 0,0 coordinate, the 8,0 coordinate, the 0,8 coordinate, etcetera, ignoring all other blocks in the area. This means that {{in|bedrock}}, map pixel art requires only one block per pixel regardless of map magnification.
{{IN|bedrock}}, grass, foliage and water colors that are biome-dependent are represented accurately on a map.

Maps also show ground up to about 15 blocks below the surface of the water in oceans as slightly lighter blue, to show where the ground rises. This is not true with land above water. Higher elevations in the world mean lighter colors on the map. The map records the surface even as the player moves below the surface.
A standard map represents 128x128 blocks (1 block per pixel, 8x8 [[chunks]]) but maps can be zoomed-out to represent up to 2048x2048 blocks (16 square blocks per pixel, 128x128 [[chunks]]).
Some relevant distances: 64 blocks (4 chunks) is the update radius from a player in the Overworld and the End. However, it is half this (32 blocks) in the Nether. Also, 1024 blocks is the minimum Overworld distance from a [[nether portal]], at which players can build another portal and expect to reach a new location in the Nether. This is the distance across a 1:8 map, and also from a 1:16 map's center to its edge.
=== Player marker and pointer ===
{{IN|java}}, every map contains a marker that marks the position of the player, and points in the same direction as the player. When a player moves out of a map, a big white dot appears and moves relative to the player's position. The pointer either disappears when the player moves away a certain distance from the border of the map or, in case of [[explorer map]]s, the big white dot changes to a smaller white dot. The distance required for the small white dot to appear(explorer maps) or for the big dot to vanish (normal maps) changes with the scaling of the map.
* '''Level 0/4 :''' 128×128 blocks (each map pixel represents 1 block)
* '''Level 1/4 :''' 256×256 blocks (2×2 blocks per map pixel)
* '''Level 2/4 :''' 512×512 blocks (4×4 blocks per map pixel)
* '''Level 3/4 :''' 1024×1024 blocks (8×8 blocks per map pixel)
* '''Level 4/4 :''' 2048×2048 blocks (16×16 blocks per map pixel)
{{IN|bedrock}}, a map can be crafted with or without this marker, and a map without a position marker can add one later by adding a compass to the map. When a map is crafted without a compass, it's simply called an "empty map", but when crafted with a compass, it's called an "empty locator map". The marker also turns red if the player enters the Nether with an Overworld map and shows the player's Overworld location relative to the Nether location. A map created in the End has a purple marker showing the player's location. If an Overworld map is used in the End, a magenta dot appears on the player's spawn point.{{/BE|position}}

{{IN|bedrock}}, a cartography table can also be used to add a pointer to create a locator map or empty locator map. This can be done by adding a compass to paper, or to an empty map or map.
=== Zooming out ===
[[File:Cartography table UI zoom.png|thumb|300px|{{IN|java}}, cartography table's UI, showing the map is being zoomed out.]]
A [[cartography table]] can also be used to zoom out, taking only one piece of paper per zoom level.
A blank map can not be zoomed out. A map has to have something already marked on it for the zooming to be possible.

==== Zoom details ====
The zooming function starts from when the map is created (zoom level 0) up to its fourth zoom step (zoom level 4).

Maps are always aligned to a grid at all zoom levels. That means zooming out any different map in a specific area covered by that map always has the same center. As such, maps are aligned by map width (1024 blocks for a level 3 maps) minus 64. A level 3 map generated at spawn covers X and Z coordinates from -64 to 959. All maps generated in this area zoom out to the same coordinates, guaranteeing that they are always 'aligned' on a map wall. For a zoomed-out map to cover a new area, it must start with a base (level 0) map that is in that area.
At zoom level 0, a map created on the point (0,0) has (0,0) at the center of the map. At higher zoom levels of the same map, the coordinate (0,0) is in the top left square of the map.
{{IN|java}}, zoom level can be seen on a map by turning on Advanced Tooltips (a [[Debug screen#More debug keys|debug screen]] option that can be toggled by using the key combination {{key|F3+H}}). The tooltip of the map then shows the zoom level, scaling factors, and map ID.
=== Cloning ===
[[File:Cartography table UI clone.png|thumb|300px|{{IN|Java}}, cartography table's UI, showing the map is being cloned.]]
A mix of empty maps and empty locator maps may be used. Whether the cloned maps show position markers is dependent only on the input map.
A [[cartography table]] can also be used to clone a map.
The parts of the world that have already been explored and mapped are copied, and newly explored areas appear on both instances. If one of the maps is later zoomed out, then the maps lose their connection to each other and function as completely separate maps that have to be individually filled by exploring.
In Creative mode, a map in an item frame may be cloned by using {{control|pick block}} on it, as long as that map is not also in the player's inventory.
It doesn't matter if the map to be cloned is at a higher zoom level (made of more paper) than the blank map. Upon copying the map, both resulting maps have the same magnification as the starting map.
{{/BE|clone}}
=== Crafting ingredient ===
{{crafting usage|Map, Empty Map}}
=== Marking points ===
{{IN|java}} the player has the ability to mark spots on a map. To do this, {{control|use}} a map on a placed-down [[banner]], and the spot of the banner gets marked on the map. The mark takes the color of whatever the base color is for the banner, and if the banner has a name, the mark shows that name. Banner marks on a map are always oriented with their top facing north, regardless of the banner's actual orientation. If the banner is destroyed, the mark of the banner remains at first, but if the player gets closer to where the banner previously was, it disappears as the area is updated on the map.
If a map is mounted on an item frame and is within the area it depicts, the mounted map displays its current location with a green indicator rotated to match its orientation.
[[File:Map Marker Bedrock on Item frame.png|thumb|181x181px|{{IN|bedrock}} this is what a map lying on an item frame looks like, while showing markers.]]
{{IN|bedrock}} the player can place copies of locator maps in [[item frame]]s in order to create a land mark. The marker is a green dot that resembles the shape of the player's marker, but in green color. The position the marker points at depends on the direction the item frame is facing. It is worth noting that the markers work only on copies of the same map. Other maps of the same area do not show the existing markers that the player(s) had placed.
If a player has a cloned map in their inventory, their pointer appears white when viewed on the same map held by another player. Hence, if all players have the same cloned map in their inventory, all markers would appear white when the clone map is viewed.

===Locking===
[[File:Cartography table UI lock.png|thumb|300px|{{IN|Java}}, cartography table's UI, showing the map is being locked.]]
Maps can be locked when using a [[glass pane]] in a [[cartography table]]. This creates a new map containing the same data and locks it. All copies of this new map are also locked. A locked map never changes, even when the depicted terrain changes. {{IN|Be}}, locked maps have a unique texture.

== Issues ==
{{issue list}}
== Trivia ==
* Use of the {{key|F1}} key can allow the player to hold a map without blocking their view at all.
* In ''Java Edition'', a map created using {{cmd|give}} can be any map by using the Map parameter to specify the map number desired. E.g. {{cmd|give [player] minecraft:filled_map{map:5<nowiki>}}} gives the specified player map_5. If no data value is supplied it defaults to map_0. If map_0 has not ever been crafted, it is centered on x=0, z=0.
* The maps are stored separately as their own data (<code>.dat</code>) file as <code>map_x.dat</code> with (x) being the map number, see [[map item format]] for more info. By manipulating this number, players can organize their maps to suit them, or if they accidentally create a map in the same location, they can delete their extra map so as to save the number they make.
* Certain programs can be used to make customized maps with images or text on them instead of actual maps, many people use these in adventure maps to show pictures or to tell a story.
* Since all copies of a map are links to the same file, copying an unfinished map keeps it synchronized with the copy as the player fills it in. Thus, a copy stored in a chest can act as a remote backup.
* A map that is in an item frame does not update itself until a player picks it up, lets it reload, and places it back again. However, if a player holds a clone of the map, both maps update.
* Filled maps are the only items that make 90 degree rotations in item frames, and also the only items that can expand the item frame into full block wide.
* On [[Legacy Console Edition]], the player always spawns with a map in their inventory after creating a world. This was later added to Bedrock Edition as an optional feature in the world creation menu.
* Maps on Legacy Console Edition always show the player's current coordinates, as a substitute for the optional [[Coordinates|coordinate display]] in other editions.
* A map cannot be created on [[New Nintendo 3DS Edition]]. Instead, the map is always displayed on the bottom screen along with the coordinates. Biome colors do not appear on maps.

'''Blaze rods''' are [[item]]s exclusively obtained from [[blaze]]s. They act as a fuel for both brewing and [[smelting]], and are required to craft [[eye of ender|eyes of ender]] used to access to [[the End]].
== Obtaining ==
=== Mob loot ===
When killed by a player or tamed [[wolf]], a [[blaze]] has a 50% chance to drop a blaze rod. The [[Looting]] [[enchantment]] can increase the drops by one per level, for a maximum of 4 blaze rods. Blazes do not drop any blaze rods if killed by any other source.
== Usage ==
=== Crafting ingredient ===
{{crafting usage}}
=== Fuel ===
When used in a [[furnace]], a blaze rod lasts 120 seconds (12 items).

'''Bamboo''' is a versatile, fast-growing, [[Bone Meal|bonemealable]] [[plant]] found primarily in [[jungle]]s, which is used for [[crafting]] (particularly [[scaffolding]] and [[Block of Bamboo|bamboo wood]]), [[smelting]] and [[breeding]] [[Panda|pandas]].
A '''bamboo shoot''' is the initial non-solid sapling form of planted bamboo.
== Obtaining ==
Bamboo shoots cannot be obtained through vanilla means. {{IN|bedrock}}, they can be obtained through [[add-on]]s or inventory editing. {{IN|java}}, they are completely unobtainable.
=== Breaking ===
Bamboo can be mined with any [[tool]], but a [[sword]] breaks the block [[instant mining|instantly]], even with [[Mining Fatigue]]. Flowing [[water]] also breaks bamboo shoots, but not mature bamboo stalks.
{{breaking row|Bamboo|Sword|sword=1|horizontal=1}}
{{notelist}}
=== Natural generation ===
Bamboo generates in widely scattered single shoots within [[jungle]] [[biome]]s. Bamboo generates much more densely in the [[bamboo jungle|bamboo variant]]s of jungles, covering large areas of the landscape. Bamboo does ''not'' generate in [[sparse jungle]]s.<ref>{{bug|MC-156638|||WAI}}</ref>
=== Mob loot ===
{{IN|java}}, a [[panda]] drops 1 bamboo when killed. [[Looting]] does not affect the drop rate.<ref>{{bug|MC-160006}}</ref>
{{IN|bedrock}}, a panda drops 0-2 bamboo when killed. Looting increases the drop by 1 per level.
=== Fishing ===
Bamboo can be found while [[fishing]] in [[jungle]] [[biome]]s as a junk [[item]].
=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|bamboo}}
== Usage ==
When broken, any bamboo [[block]] placed or grown above it is also broken. A bamboo block drops itself as an [[item]] if a [[piston]] pushes it or moves a block into its space. When bamboo is first placed as a shoot it's not solid and can be destroyed by water flowing into it. After growing at least one block taller it becomes solid and can't be destroyed by water. To transform a bamboo shoot into a solid bamboo block place another bamboo on top of it.
Unlike most plants, bamboo cannot be [[Composter#Composting|composted]].<ref>{{bug|MC-142452|||WAI}}</ref>
=== Farming ===
Bamboo can be planted on [[moss block]]s{{only|java|short=1}}, [[grass block]]s, [[dirt]], [[coarse dirt]], [[rooted dirt]], [[gravel]], [[mycelium]], [[podzol]], [[sand]], [[red sand]], [[suspicious sand]], [[suspicious gravel]], [[mud]], bamboo shoot, or on itself. At default random tick speed (3), each plant grows on average every {{convert|4096|ticks|seconds}}. When [[bone meal]] is {{control|used}} on it, it grows by 1–2 [[blocks]]. Bamboo can grow up to 12–16 blocks tall. The top of a bamboo plant requires a [[light]] level of 9 or above to grow.
Because bamboo breaks in almost the same way as [[sugar cane]]s, [[Tutorials/Sugar cane farming|a sugar cane farm]] can be easily adapted to this use. While water is not needed with such a farm, some spacing is recommended if the harvest is done manually as mature stalks are solid.
=== Pandas ===
Bamboo [[item]]s are eaten by [[panda]]s and can be used to speed up the growth of baby pandas. Bamboo can also be used to breed pandas when at least 8 [[block]]s of bamboo are within 5 blocks of the pandas, making the panda the only animal in the game to have extra breeding requirements. At this point, the [[player]] can feed them bamboo and they [[breeding|mate]] to have a baby.
=== Fuel ===
Bamboo can be used as fuel for [[smelting]]. Each bamboo item smelts 0.25 [[item]]s. Crafting two bamboo into a [[stick]] and using that as fuel is equivalent, smelting 0.5 items.
Bamboo can be crafted into other items to increase its fuel efficiency.
* By crafting 9 bamboo into 2 [[bamboo planks]], 3 items can be smelted instead of 2.25, a 33.3% increase in efficiency.
** {{IN|bedrock}}, the fuel efficiency can be further doubled by crafting the bamboo planks into twice the amount of [[slab]]s.<ref>{{bug|MCPE-94368||Wooden slabs last for the same amount of time as planks in a furnace}}</ref>
* {{IN|java}}, by crafting 14 bamboo into 3 [[ladder]]s, 4.5 items can be smelted instead of 3.5, a 28.6% increase in efficiency.
=== Flower pots ===
Bamboo can be placed in a [[flower pot]], where it retains the design it has in its item form.
=== Crafting ingredient ===
{{crafting usage}}
== Appearance ==
[[File:Bamboo stages.png|thumb|The different stages of bamboo growth.]]
The appearance of bamboo changes as it grows. When first placed, it takes the form of a small shoot, which has no [[hitbox]]. When it grows one [[block]] taller it grows to 2 pixels in length and width and the top block has leaves coming off it. At 3 blocks, the top 2 blocks have leaves and at 4 blocks the bamboo expands to 3×3 pixels. At 5 blocks tall, the top 3 blocks have leaves on them. As the bamboo grows, the leaves move up and stay at the top 3 blocks. Destroying a block of bamboo does not change the appearance of the blocks below it. Bamboo is oriented at a random position in the block that it is in.

=== Bamboo shoot "item" ===
{{:Technical blocks/Bamboo Shoot}}
== Issues ==
{{Issue list}}
== Trivia ==
* Because bamboo grows quickly (on average 1 growth per 200 seconds), just 500 plants in an automatic farm produce more [[item]]s than a [[hopper]] can collect (2.5 items per second). A single hopper can move only enough items to keep 6.25 [[furnace]]s running.
* Bamboo is the fastest-growing plant in ''[[Minecraft]]'', which reflects its status as the fastest-growing plant known in real life.
* While bamboo cannot be composted in ''Minecraft'', it can be composted in real life.

Issues[]
Issues relating to "Sculk" or "Sculk Block" are maintained on the bug tracker. Report issues there.
Trivia[]
- "Sculk" is derived from the word "skulk," meaning "keep out of sight, typically with a sinister or cowardly motive".[1]
- During the prototype phase, sculk was much easier to trigger; simply stepping on in would make a lot of noise and attract the Warden. This ended up being deemed unfair, resulting in the creation of the Sculk Sensor.[2]
- The old trypophobia shrieker was a combination of the modern day shrieker and scrapped sculk jaw as it would both scream and show teeth[3]
