Overview
Podzol is a block in the Utility Blocks category of Minecraft, obtained through mining and natural world generation. A single inventory slot holds a full stack of 64 Podzol. This item was added to the game in version 1.7.
In this database, Podzol sits alongside 339 other Utility Blocks entries, each with its own page. Because it stacks to 64, a single chest of Podzol stores up to 1,728 of them and a double chest holds 3,456, which matters when gathering enough for large builds.
How to Obtain
- Mining
- Natural generation
Notes
Only drops itself when mined with a Silk Touch tool; otherwise it drops dirt. Generates in old growth taiga and bamboo jungle biomes, and forms under large spruce trees grown on podzol.
