About Lime Candle
The Lime Candle is a greenish light source that stays unlit until you start it. It is mostly a decorative block, useful for mood lighting, paths, or small builds where a lantern feels too bright.
Key facts:
- A single lit candle gives a light level of 3.
- You can place up to four candles in one block, and more candles means more light.
- Light it with flint and steel or a fire charge, then right-click it to put it out.
How to get Lime Candle
Craft one by combining a regular candle with lime dye in the crafting grid. The regular candle is made from string and honeycomb. Lime dye can be obtained by smelting a sea pickle or by combining green dye and white dye. Lime candles are not found ready-made in the world, so this crafting step is how you get them.
