Block
Melon block in Minecraft
A Melon is a green fruit block that grows from a melon stem and wild in jungles.
It is made with the Crafting Table from 9 × Melon Slice. It is mined with an axe and drops Melon Slice. It can be composted: each one has a 65% chance to add a layer to a Composter.
What it does
Breaking it gives three to seven Melon Slices, more with Fortune, or the block itself with Silk Touch; nine slices craft it back. It is one of the easiest automatic farms: an observer and a piston can harvest the block as soon as it appears.
