Overview

In vanilla Minecraft, tall grass and other small plants block your attacks. If a mob walks into a patch of tall grass, swinging at it usually just rips out the grass instead of hitting the mob. Mining a block hidden behind a fern or flower destroys the plant first. This guide covers a feature that fixes that nuisance: left-click attacks pass straight through non-solid plants and land on whatever is behind them.

The plant is left untouched. Your swing reaches the block or creature behind the foliage as if the grass were not there. Nothing about combat damage, reach, or mining speed changes - only the plant in the way is ignored.
