Cyan Concrete Powder at a glance

Cyan Concrete Powder, a block out of crafting, sits under Utility Blocks. Carrying Cyan Concrete Powder is cheap: 64 to a slot, 576 across the hotbar, 1728 in a chest.

Cyan Concrete Powder owes its colour to cyan dye. A pitcher plant gives two. Mixing one blue dye with one green dye makes two. On the hardness scale Cyan Concrete Powder sits at 0.5. A shovel is the right tool for Cyan Concrete Powder, and any tier of it collects the block. It holds up against explosions exactly as well as it does against a pickaxe, and no better. It sits between Cyan Carpet and Cyan Stained Glass in Utility Blocks, number 102 of 340 there.
