'''Nether wart''' is a fungus harvested from nether wart crops and is used to plant them, as well as being vital in the creation of [[potion]]s.

'''Nether wart crops''' are found in [[nether fortress]]es and [[bastion remnant]]s and used to grow nether wart in [[soul sand]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Nether wart can be mined instantly with any tool. A fully mature nether wart crop yields 2&ndash;4 nether wart. This is increased by one for each level of [[Fortune]], this allows for a maximum of 7 nether warts dropping from one crop. Less mature stages drop one nether wart, even with the Fortune enchantment.

{{breaking row|Nether Wart|horizontal=1}}

=== Natural generation ===
Nether wart can generate in [[nether fortress]]es in [[soul sand]] gardens around stairwells or in [[chest]]s. Nether wart can also generate in the courtyards of housing unit [[bastion remnant]]s. Due to only spawning in these specific structures, it's entirely possible for a nether fortress or bastion remnant to generate without nether wart (though they may still appear in the chests that generate in the fortress).

== Usage == 
=== Brewing ingredient ===
Nether wart's primary purpose is to [[Brewing|brew]] the [[awkward potion]], the base for all potions, but optional for Weakness.

=== Farming ===
{{main|Tutorials/Nether Wart farming}}
When planted on [[soul sand]], nether wart grows through four stages, though the middle two stages use the same texture (the hitbox of stage 3 is three pixels taller). {{IN|java}}, the exact age can be seen using the [[debug screen]], and the ages range from 0 to 3. Each random tick, nether wart has a 10% chance of growing one stage. At default random tick speed, each nether wart grows one age step approximately every {{convert|13653|ticks|minutes}} on average, and fully grows from planting to harvest every {{convert|40960|ticks|minutes}} on average. The growth rate is not affected by light or any other environmental factors. [[Bone meal]] cannot be used on the nether wart.

Nether wart can only be planted on [[soul sand]]. It cannot be planted on [[soul soil]]. It can grow in any [[dimension]].

Nether wart is ready to harvest when it reaches its fourth stage (age:3). Breaking a fully grown nether wart drops 2 to 4 nether wart, while an immature one drops a single nether wart. Using a tool enchanted with fortune increases the maximum number of nether wart dropped by 1 per level, for a maximum of 7 for a tool enchanted with [[Fortune|Fortune III]].

=== Composting ===
Placing a nether wart into a [[composter]] has a 65% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

Note that one should preferably not craft nether wart blocks for composting purposes. Using 9 nether warts gives almost 95% chance of raising the compost level at least 4 times, while using a nether wart block gives an 85% chance of raising it once.

== Issues ==
{{Issue list}}

== Trivia ==
* Nether wart's stage changes cannot be detected by a [[block update detector]], but can by an [[observer]] block.
* Unlike other crimson "plants", nether wart doesn't have a warped equivalent. This is also the case with [[nether sprouts]], which lack a crimson equivalent.
