Mushroom Stem
minecraft:mushroom_stemThe mushroom stem is the pale, spore-covered block that forms the trunk of a huge mushroom, generating naturally beneath brown or red mushroom caps in mushroom fields, dark forests, and abandoned camps. Mining it without Silk Touch destroys the block outright and drops nothing, while a Silk Touch tool recovers the stem itself for building. It can also be composted, with roughly a 65% chance of raising the compost level by one.
