Growing Mushroom Colonies Through All Growth Stages

Planting Brown Mushroom Colonies

Find or prepare rich soil in your world. Plant a brown mushroom colony on this soil block and watch it progress through four distinct growth stages (stages zero through three). Each stage has a unique 3D model, so the mushroom's shape will visibly change as it matures. This is much more immersive than vanilla mushroom growth.

Observing Red Mushroom Development

Plant a red mushroom colony nearby on the same rich soil. Red colonies also progress through multiple stages (zero through three), but with different 3D geometry compared to brown varieties. Position both colonies close together so you can compare their growth patterns and visual designs side by side.

Maximizing Visual Impact

Light your mushroom farm well so the parallax depth on each stage is clearly visible. The 3D models are most impressive when viewed from different angles and distances. Consider building your mushroom farm in an area where you'll pass by frequently, so you can appreciate the gradual transformation as colonies mature.
