Breaking

Potato buds drop as an item when mined with any tool or by hand, but mining it with a sword is the fastest.

Natural generation

Potato buds naturally generate in the corruption biome in Potato dimension.

Usage

The block acts similarly to pointed dripstone: it grows upward like a stalagmite, and if entities land on the tip, they take increased fall damage. Potato buds cannot be placed on the ceiling and they grow faster than pointed dripstone, up to the maximum height of 25 blocks.

This block is also able to be used in a composter.

Sounds

This section uses a sound table which may not accurately represent the sounds associated with this feature.
 
Because of MC-177082, subtitles for falling on blocks may not have existed at this point in development, so a dedicated sound table accounting for this may be required.
