Glow Berries

At Minecraft Live 2020, a cave vine was presented, as well as glow berries growing on it.

In version 1.17, berries appeared first, and then creepers. Therefore, initially berries could only be found in dungeon chests, but they were extremely rare.

In version 1.18, the developers added the ability to use scissors on a cave vine, after which it stops growing.

Glow berries can be found in an underground biome with unique flora and fauna called Overgrown Caves. They are densely strewn with plants hanging from the ceiling, which are called cave liana. They are easy to spot in the cave, as they emit a glow, thanks to which even a cave with them can be seen from afar.

Player can collect glow berries from the vines by right-clicking on the vines or simply breaking the vine. In the first case, the vine will remain hanging on the block, one berry will be in the player's inventory. In the second, the player will receive a berry, and the vine will collapse. If you break a vine on which berries do not grow, nothing will fall out. The tool with the "Luck" charm does not affect the number of fallen berries in any way.

Sometimes glow berries can be found in the chests of abandoned mines and in the structures of an Ancient city.

In addition to eating, glow berries can be used as an inexhaustible source of illumination for the home. To do this, it is enough just to grow the necessary number of vines and wait for the berries to appear on them.

It is possible to accelerate the growth of vines and the appearance of berries on them with the help of bone meal. Glow berries have different levels of light emission: under the very block from which the vine grows – 10 units, on all subsequent parts of the vine – 14 units.

You can plant a new vine shoot on the underside of any block by clicking on it with a berry. The resulting vine will begin to grow down until it reaches a maximum height of 26 blocks or rests against the lower block.

• Cave creeper can be broken by spilling water on it, or when exposed to a conventional or sticky piston.
• If you put glow berries in a composter, then the level of humus will increase with a probability of 30%.
• Glow berries can be fed to foxes so that they multiply.
• Little foxes grow 10% faster if you feed them glow berries.
• By clicking the glow berries on the free edge of the vine, you can increase its length indefinitely.
