About Coarse Dirt
Coarse Dirt is a rough, pebbly version of dirt. Grass and mycelium do not spread onto it, which makes it useful for paths, bare-earth build palettes, and places where you want soil to stay looking plain.
Key facts:
- Grass cannot spread onto coarse dirt.
- It has a chunkier, grittier texture than normal dirt.
- You can convert it back into regular dirt with a hoe.
How to get Coarse Dirt
You can craft Coarse Dirt with a shapeless recipe: two dirt and two gravel make four blocks. It also generates naturally in a few biomes, including old growth taiga and windswept savanna, so you can gather patches while exploring. It drops as a block when mined, which makes crafted and collected coarse dirt behave the same way.
