Hoes are tools used to till dirt and grass blocks into farmland blocks, the first step in farming wheat, melons, pumpkins, carrots and potatoes. It is an indispensable tool for farming although farming itself is not required ingame.

Usage

The hoe is used to turn dirt and grass blocks into farmland for producing wheat, melons, pumpkins, carrots or potatoes. To till, right-click on a grass or dirt block while holding a hoe. The material used in the construction of the hoe has almost no effect on the utility of the hoe - the process of tilling is effectively instantaneous regardless of material and all hoes deal the same damage as fists if used in combat. As with all tools, the material used does, however, affect the durability of the hoe.

Crafting

Hoes are crafted using 2 sticks and 2 units of a tool material:

If the pickaxe is enchanted with [[Fortune]], it can drop an extra unit per level of Fortune, allowing for a maximum of 4 with Fortune III. If the ore is mined using a pickaxe enchanted with [[Silk Touch]], it drops the ore block instead.

'''Coal''' is a mineral [[item]] mainly obtained from [[Coal Ore|coal ore]]. It is primarily used for crafting [[torches]] and [[Campfire|campfires]], as well as [[fuel]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Chest loot ===
{{see also|Coal Ore#Natural generation}}
{{LootChestItem|coal}}

=== Mining ===

[[Coal ore]] are mined using a [[pickaxe]] and drops 1 piece of coal. If the pickaxe is enchanted with [[Fortune]], it may drop an extra piece per level of Fortune, up to a maximum of 4 with Fortune III.

=== Mob loot ===

[[Wither skeleton]]s have a {{Frac|1|3}} chance of dropping a single coal upon death. The maximum amount of coal is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]]. The chance of a wither skeleton ''not'' dropping any coal can be found using the formula <code>2 / (Looting Level + 3)</code>. For example, Looting III gives a {{frac|1|3}} chance of not dropping any coal. All other amounts have an equal chance of occurring.

=== Smelting ===

{{Smelting
 |head=1
 |Coal Ore

 |Coal
 |0,1
|foot=1
}}

== Usage ==

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage|Coal}}

=== Fuel ===

When used in a [[furnace]] as a fuel, a piece of coal lasts 80 seconds (smelting up to 8 items), like [[charcoal]]. Coal used as fuel lasts more than 5 times longer than [[wood planks]] or [[wood]] logs used as fuel, being more efficient than any other use of wood for smelting {{in|je}}, but outstripped by [[wooden slabs]] {{in|be}}. 

Coal and charcoal are also the only fuels accepted by [[Minecart with Furnace|furnace minecart]]s. They provide approximately four minutes of transit each.

=== Trading ===

Novice-level fisherman [[villager]]s have a 50% chance to buy 10 coal for one [[emerald]].

{{IN|java}}, novice-level armorer and toolsmith villagers have a 40% chance of offering to buy 15 coal for one emerald. Novice-level weaponsmith villagers and apprentice-level butcher villagers have {{frac|2|3}} chance of offering to buy 15 coal for one emerald.

{{IN|bedrock}}, novice-level armorer, toolsmith, and weaponsmith villagers and apprentice-level butcher villagers buy 15 coal for one emerald.

[[trading|Trade]]s that involve coal cannot be substituted by [[charcoal]].

'''Clocks''' are [[Daylight cycle|time]]-telling devices that display the current in-game position of the sun and the moon. Clocks only function properly in the [[Overworld]].

=== Trading ===

Expert-level librarian villagers have a {{frac|1|2}} (50%) chance to sell a clock for 5 emeralds.{{only|java}}

== Usage ==

[[File:WatchCycle.gif|thumb|Clock animation]]
The clock dial consists of two halves, a day side and a night side. The dial spins clockwise slowly to indicate the time of day, corresponding to the sun or moon's actual position in the sky. The player is able to [[bed|sleep]] a few seconds after the clock shows exactly dusk.

The dial always shows the current in-game time when in the [[Overworld]], regardless of where it appears. This includes a player's hand, an inventory slot, a [[Crafting table|crafting grid]], an [[item frame]], or even as a dropped [[Item (entity)|item]]. For a clock to be mounted on a wall, an [[item frame]] is required.

Because there is no day/night cycle in [[the Nether]] or [[the End]], clocks do not work properly in these dimensions. Instead, the dial rotates rapidly and randomly, making them useless.

=== Piglins ===
{{EntityLink|Piglin|Piglins}} are attracted to clocks and run toward any clock on the ground, and inspect it for 6 to 8 seconds before putting it in their inventory.

== Trivia ==
* {{IN|java}}, a clock can be viewed under the item [[statistics]] page as long as one obtained a clock at some point.
* {{IN|java}}, the default resource pack for the clock contains 64 individual frames, each frame lasting about 18.75 seconds in real time (375 ticks) (1350 seconds (22 minutes, 30 seconds) in Minecraft time).
* When the time of day changes suddenly, such as after sleeping or when {{cmd|time}} is used, the clock dial spins rapidly to catch up.
* Although clocks do not function in the Nether or the End, the actual daylight cycle does continue.

'''Fire charges''' are items that can be {{control|used}} as a single-use version of a [[flint and steel]] or shot as a [[small fireball]] from a [[dispenser]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|fire-charge}}

|Output= Fire Charge, 3

}}

=== Bartering ===
[[Piglin]]s may [[barter]] 1 fire charge when given a [[gold ingot]].

== Usage ==
[[File:Natural Fire Charge.png|200px|thumb|Dispensing Fire Charge]]

Fire charges can be used as ammunition for [[dispenser]]s, or as a substitute for [[flint and steel]].

When used, it instantly places a [[fire]], similar to flint and steel. The fire charge is consumed in the process. It can prime [[TNT]], light [[Nether portal|nether portals]], [[Campfire|campfires]], [[Candle|candles]], [[Cake|cakes with candles]] and [[creeper]]s{{only|JE}} like flint and steel.

When a fire charge is fired from a dispenser, it shoots a [[small fireball]].

Before, using a hoe on grass blocks was the only way to collect seeds for planting. When tall grass was introduced, this feature was removed.

Trivia

  • Tilling a dirt block which has a dirt block on top of it will change it to farmland even though it cannot be used. If a hoe is used on a block horizontally adjacent to such a block, the first block will revert to dirt and the selected block will not be tilled. The hoe will still take one point of damage from each use.
  • When you till a dirt block, the top layer is removed. But due to the way farmland is textured, it appears as if the block sinks into the ground. The texture for the sides is shifted down instead of the top pixels being removed.
  • Wooden hoes can be made from just one block of wood, because one block of wood equals four wooden planks, and two wooden planks equals four sticks, and using these you can craft a hoe.
  • When a hoe breaks it does not display the tool breaking animation like on other tools. This is likely because hoes are different from the other tools that use sticks in their recipes. If one of these tools, except the hoe are used, they deal more damage than just your fists, while a hoe does just the damage of your fists.
  • It is impractical to have a gold hoe, as it takes the same time to till with all hoes, but gold has only a few uses. It is also impractical to have a diamond hoe, as it would be a waste to use such a valuable resource. However, Diamond hoes can be useful if the player has a very large wheat farm and the player buys them from villager blacksmiths using emeralds obtained from selling some of the wheat. The effectiveness of this method is questionable though, since villagers will remove trade options after 3-15 uses.
  • Since it can be used while moving, a hoe is a quick and easy method of temporarily marking your trail while moving through the overworld in low visibility areas such as heavy forests. Tilled tiles decay over time, so this isn't for permanent paths.
  • Hoes cannot be enchanted.
