FAQ
What tool should I use to harvest Cocoa?
An axe is fastest, but any tool or bare hands will break it; only the growth stage affects how many beans drop.
How many beans does a fully grown Cocoa pod drop?
Three Cocoa Beans at the final growth stage, versus one bean at each of the two earlier stages.
Can Cocoa be planted on any wood?
No. It can only be placed on the side of a Jungle Log (or jungle wood variants), not on other wood types.
Does Fortune increase Cocoa Bean drops?
No. Fortune has no effect on Cocoa; drop count depends only on the pod's growth stage when broken.
