Mushrooms in everyday life are pretty standard. Not in Minecraft, though. Chuck some bonemeal on them and they have the potential to grow to intimidatingly towering heights. If you look carefully at specific Minecraft mobs, namely suspiciously red cows, you might find mushrooms growing on their backs. There are plenty of places to find mushrooms, and even more ways to use them. In this guide, we’ll tell you all we need to know, including whether or not you can grow them in the same way as lots of other Minecraft crops.

How to get mushrooms in Minecraft
Minecraft mushrooms can be found in a variety of locations. You can harvest them with anything. Mining a huge mushroom block will drop as many as two mushrooms of the same color, and having the Minecraft enchantment Fortune on your tools will not affect how many mushrooms are dropped.
A mushroom will break instantly and drop as itself if the block underneath it is moved or destroyed, if a fluid flows over it, or if the block next to it changes state.
