Cave Vines
minecraft:cave_vinesCave Vines is the head block of a hanging vine — the topmost segment attached to the ceiling that extends new Cave Vines Plant segments downward over time. Like the rest of the vine, it can bear Glow Berries and be climbed like a ladder.
Uses
- Glow Berries — Harvest berries by hand without breaking the vine, or break the block to collect both the berries (if present) and end the chain growing beneath it.
Found In
- Lush Caves — Generates attached to the ceiling of lush cave biomes as the anchor point for each vine chain.
- Bone-mealed cave ceilings — Can be grown manually by applying bone meal to a cave-ceiling-adjacent vine segment.
Drops
- glow berries× 1–2
FAQ
How do Cave Vines spread?
Each tick has a small chance to extend the chain one block downward as a new Cave Vines Plant segment, up to a maximum length of 26 blocks; bone meal instantly grows a new segment.
What tool do I need to mine Cave Vines?
None — any tool or bare hands breaks it instantly, though it is classified as axe-mineable for tool-tag purposes.
Do bees interact with Cave Vines?
Yes. Bees can pollinate cave vines, which has a chance to spawn Glow Berries on nearby segments.
Can I climb Cave Vines like a ladder?
Yes, cave vines are climbable and slow the player's fall and movement similar to a ladder or vines.
