A warped fungus is a fungus found in warped and crimson forests or by using bone meal on nylium. It can grow into a huge warped fungus if bone mealed, but only if planted on warped nylium. It can also be used for crafting, fed to striders or be planted to repel hoglins.

Obtaining

Breaking

A warped fungus can be mined instantly and always drops itself. Mining a flower pot containing a fungus drops both items separately.

Natural generation

Warped fungi naturally generate in the warped forest and crimson forest biomes, with warped fungus most commonly generating in its respective biome, the warped forest and less frequently in the other, the crimson forest.

Mob loot

An enderman holding a warped fungus drops the fungus upon death.

Post-generation

Applying bone meal to nylium causes warped fungi to appear nearby, similar to flowers on grass blocks. While warped fungi and other Nether vegetation can generate this way, they are more likely to be the same type as the nylium.

Usage

Placement

Warped fungi may be placed on grass blocks, dirt, coarse dirt, podzol, farmland, rooted dirt, moss blocks, nylium, mycelium, soul soil, mud, and muddy mangrove roots. Attempting to place it on any other block fails. Warped fungi requires a solid block underneath it, and pops off and drops itself if it is no longer supported.

Warped fungi can also be placed in flower pots.

Growth

When bone meal is used on a warped fungus that is planted on matching nylium, it has a 40% chance to grow into a huge warped fungus. The warped stem, shroomlight, or warped wart blocks may replace certain blocks including slabs and torches.

Breeding

Warped fungus can be used to breed striders and lead them around if crafted as a warped fungus on a stick.

Hoglins

All hoglins, regardless of age, avoid and run up to 7 blocks away from warped fungus when it is placed on a block or inside of a flower pot.‌^{[Java Edition only][1]} Held warped fungi and warped fungi on sticks do not have this effect.

Crafting ingredient

Name	Ingredients	Crafting recipe	Notes
Warped Fungus on a Stick	Fishing Rod or  Damaged Fishing Rod + Warped Fungus		The fishing rod must be diagonally above the warped fungus to craft the warped fungus on a stick.

Composting

Placing a warped fungus into a composter has a 65% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

			20w10a				The inventory texture of warped fungi has been changed to match the block form.
							Warped fungus can no longer be obtained by bartering with piglins, making it no longer renewable, despite this already being the case in the prior snapshot.
