Honeycomb
minecraft:honeycombHoneycomb is harvested by shearing a full bee nest or beehive, or by using a dispenser loaded with shears so the bees stay calm. It is used to wax copper blocks and lightning rods against oxidation, to lock signs from further editing, and as a crafting ingredient for beehives, candles, and honeycomb blocks.
FAQ
How do you get honeycomb?
Shear a bee nest or beehive once its honey level reaches 5, which drops 3 honeycombs. A lit campfire underneath keeps the bees calm.
What does honeycomb do to copper?
Applying honeycomb to a copper block, cut copper, or a lightning rod waxes it, preventing further oxidation from spreading.
Can honeycomb be used on signs?
Yes, applying honeycomb to a placed sign locks its text so it can no longer be edited.
What can honeycomb be crafted into?
Honeycomb combines with wood planks to make a beehive, with string to make candles, or with three more honeycombs to make a honeycomb block.
