A red mushroom is a variety of fungus that grows and spreads in dark areas. Red mushrooms can be grown into huge mushrooms with bone meal.

Red mushrooms can be instantly mined with any tool, including by hand.

A red mushroom also breaks instantly and drops as an item if:

• the block below it is moved or destroyed
• a fluid flows over it
• a block next to it changes state, but only when it is not on podzol, mycelium, or nylium and light level is 13 or higher

Red mushrooms naturally generate in poorly lit areas (light level of 12 or less). If this condition is met, each chunk has a ¹⁄₈ (12.5%) chance to generate red mushrooms in the form of random patches.^[1]

Mushrooms also generate on the surface of a swamp, old growth spruce taiga, old growth pine taiga, or mushroom fields biome, along with anywhere in the Nether. Unlike plants, they are able to generate on top of nearly any block type.

In Java Edition, they are commonly found in patches on the Nether roof, and are the only blocks that can generate there.

Witch huts have a flower pot with a red mushroom inside. Mushrooms also generate inside "mushroom farm" rooms in woodland mansions.

Red mushrooms planted on podzol can also be found around bogged and cave spider trial spawners in trial chambers.

Fallen trees can have up to 2 mushrooms generated on them.

Breaking a red mushroom block has a chance of dropping 0-2 red mushrooms. Fortune does not affect the drop rate of mushrooms in any form.^[2]

Java Edition:

Bedrock Edition:

Shearing a red mooshroom drops 5 red mushrooms and permanently turns it into a normal cow.

Shearing a bogged drops 2 mushrooms, both of which have a chance to be red.

An enderman holding a red mushroom drops it upon death.

In Bedrock Edition, wandering traders have a chance of 8.5% (increased by 1% per level of Looting) to drop 3 red mushrooms when killed while showing the item as trade offer, if the player holds an emerald.

Red mushrooms can be planted and grown on blocks that have a full top surface in light levels below 13 and not directly underneath the sky. They cannot be planted on the top surfaces of slabs or stairs.^[3] For more information, see Opacity/Placement. If planted on mycelium, podzol or nylium, they can stay planted in any light level, including skylight. They grow at the same rate regardless of the light level.^[4][5]

Red mushrooms can be used to heal or tempt zombie horses.

When bone meal is applied to a red mushroom, the mushroom has a chance to grow into a red huge mushroom, provided that it is on a proper block (grass block, dirt, coarse dirt, rooted dirt, mud, muddy mangrove roots, moss block, or pale moss block at a light level of 12 or below; on podzol, mycelium or nylium at any light level) and is free of solid blocks within 5 blocks directly above the mushroom.

When receiving a random tick, a red mushroom has a 4% chance of spreading to a nearby block (including even above and below diagonally) if there are fewer than five red mushrooms in a 9×9×3 volume around the original mushroom.

Red mushrooms can be planted in a flower pot.

Placing a mushroom into a composter has a 65% chance of raising the compost level by 1.
