little fungi fact: mycelium isn't exactly mushroom "roots" - it's more the whole main body of the mushroom itself. the mushroom is just a fruiting body for the fungus to spread spores. both mycelium and mushrooms are formed of smaller filament like structures called hyphae, which are supported by chitin when growing a mushroom.

Good thing those rails were enough for your needs, as you don't really need to make rails yourself nowadays since rail dupers exist, although they do need slime blocks, which kinda forces you to go out to hunt mobs in swamps anyway.

Just a note for any future newcomers to mushroom islands, the peaceful spawning is super helpful but keep an eye on the border of the biome. Sometimes there’s valid spawn spaces in the surrounding ocean, either on the edge of the island or in shallow caves nearby. Nothing a couple torches cant fix :) something to keep in mind to avoid getting randomly creepered
Actually makes sense that no hostile mobs can generate in the Mushroom Biome because the Fungi can help to decompose organic wastes much faster than usual so Zombies and Skeletons are probably just part of the ground in that biome... For Creepers, Spiders and other mobs i have no idea tho

My base is on a large mushroom island. There are lush caves beneath it. So it's really easy to make an efficient mob farm. When you temporarily flood the island then the mycelium dies, you can replace it with grass (grass looks amazing because its jungle green grass) and keep one patch of mycelium and you have an instant passive mob farm providing you with steak.
Actually, I've had two instances of hostile mobs spawning at my mooshroom island, twice, a Skelton horse trap spawned on my island, both times skeletons started shooting me, I have it recorded. Because no mobs spawn there, there is a way higher chance to encounter the skeleton trap, I've only been living on the island for about 70 in game days. So, there are more than 2 mobs that can spawn there, also, many wandering traders spawn there too.
Really? Now I _REALLY_ don't want this changed! I have never encountered one since they nerfed the spawn rate not long after they introduced it & I miss them. I know that there are ways to make farms to try & spawn them, but they're still too rare.
Mobs can still spawn on player placed blocks, the mob protection seems like it's a block value assigned at-generation. It can actually have a dangerous mob-spawner like effect if handled incorrectly lol. Unless they changed this aspect of the biome's behavior post 1.0 when I learned this, though it seems like you'd have to do a lot of code to get it to act that way.

Hello, Here is a map seed for 1.19.3, that has 2 small Mooshroom island at these co-ordinates ( X: - 788, Z: - 1035). If you are also looking for Deep Dark with an Ancient City, this same map has one at these co-ordinates (X: -1763, Y: -50, Z: -2465). I am using this map on Mc Realms, so if you would like to see this world in-game, friend me through Mc, and I will add you to my realm. FeyLeChat72
Something similar happened to me: World 1: tiny 2x3 sand island with nothing but ocean all around, managed to swim to a small island with only 1 tree and some grass and survived off of kelp until I could travel to bigger land World 2: spawned in a MESA with nothing but mesa, desert, and endless ocean for at least 500 blocks around. Managed to find a wooded badlands biome, chopped down trees and survived off of apples for a while. Managed to use the cobwebs in mineshafts for string to make a bed and a fishing rod for food until I was able to find a jungle about 1200 blocks away Would have loved to spawn on a mushroom island :P
@@feywynnightrunner9380 I found an awesome seed on a deeko short. I think that’s the channel name. I’m using the seed on my realm called “quite quarry” it is the best seed I have ever used. I spawn on a massive grotto where I built my village home with some friends. There’s three villages nearby with 2 ruined portals and a pillager tower. Not to mention right under the quarry is an ancient city. So many cool seeds now microsoft really has done minecraft right imo
I like them because hostile mob farms don't need to be located in crazy places. I've built collection chambers underground just outside of the mushroom biome, and it spawns hostiles very fast (as it's the only place to spawn).
I have spawned in the middle of the ocean with no land in sight, in the middle of a pit of LAVA, and basically in horrible and desolate places. I think it's hilarious that we can't spawn on mushroom islands, yet spawning in worse places is still possible lmao
I have spawned on a very small island about 10 blocks in diameter With nothing but one tree. Thankfully there was kelp so I managed to make a lot of bonemeal to grow trees and survive
I always loved going to the Mushroom island back on the Xbox 360 edition when the map was limited to a small chunk. But in current versions of Minecraft, finding the island is an endeavor all on its own
Totally forgot that mushrooms islands were peaceful. About to build my base there, and make a mob farm on the outer ring of the island for maximum spawn capability
You can make an instant growth chamber for the mushrooms if you surround yourself in dirt leaving the two blocks of air, place the mushroom at your feet in darkness, destroy the block over your head and then bonemeal it. Should let you produce giant mushrooms anywhere you'd like without blocking out the Sun
If your crafting the suspicious stew instead of milking it from mooshrooms, you can store it uncrafted in your inventory so a stack of soup would only take up 3-4 slots
1 shulker = 27 suspicious stews(all saturation) that plus a stack of gapples(adds hearts and defence) and 2 stacks of dried kelp(fastest meal, 2 bites per) is the best food setup on the go. Use stew sparingly, when safe and tired of eating kelp every 20 seconds
This video was cool to see. My 1.19 world I started a few weeks ago has a base on a mooshroom island. My house is a giant mushroom made from magma blocks and deepslate. It's one of my favorite builds so far.
A lot of mob farms saw their rates drop post 1.18 due to more caves creating dark spawning cave mobs. Mooshroom islands are a great way to counteract this so long as the biome is sufficiently deep (biomes are now 3d and don't necessarily go from the sky to the bedrock, as mentioned when something like a lush cavern biome is down there). Obviously the farm won't work on the island, but deep ocean is already a good option for spawnproofing for mob farms and the Mooshroom islands mean you can have over things around your farm without it having to be in the middle of nothing. It can be like having the benefits of peaceful mode for your mines, farms, and villages without the downsides of peaceful mode (no hostile drops). If you have a kid or new player you want to put on your server to play with you, it can be a great place to start them out. Escort them to their island and let them learn the ropes on easy mode while still sharing your the world with you. As far as being over powered? No, just slightly above normal in some ways - which is why it is a rare biome. The only thing truly OP in the game (other than exploits) is villager trading.
Man, I remember plating red mushrooms 2 blocks deep and then using bone mill to make a house was a very popular technic back in the day Mushroom Islands, swamps and jungles were the rarest biomes you could encounter.
9:50 from my limited testing both stews of regeneration and saturation are good in their own way like steak vs golden carrots. Stew of regeneration preserves saturation by restoring HP with the regen effect, while stew of saturation will use up some of that saturation to heal. Stew of regen can probably also heal more when starving while saturation heals faster when full hunger. Considering they are unstackable most players won't eat these stews until necessary (very low hunger/health) to maximise benefit. Of course in case HP is full then stew of saturation is better.
I never knew much about this biome. I found a massive cave (hundreds of blocks wide, over 100 blocks tall) under a massive mushroom biome and have access to hundreds of diamonds without dealing with mobs.
I use leads to tether a whole bunch of red mooshrooms to a fencepost then place a lightning rod on top during a thunderstorm. One lightning bolt turns them all brown at once. But break the lightning rod before the next bolt or they'll all turn back!
Hi EyeCraft. Great content as always. Can you make a video explaining the spawn chunks, with things like how many chunks get always loaded, and some advise on how to take best advantage of them?
I have a suggestion regarding the "Mushroom Island being the only biome in the overworld that doesn't occur in real life (05:22)". Mushroom mycelium networks cover huge portions of our terrestrial world. The largest organism on Earth is a fungus which has a mycelium footprint of 2,384 acres. Mushroom mycelium is responsible for the nitrogen cycle. I propose the Mushroom Island does exist in the the real world: It's almost everywhere you look! 🍄
It would be great to breed two animals other than cows on a mushroom island and get a "mushroom version" of them. Picture the muddy pig with the flower on his head that was only in minecraft Earth, but with a mushroom instead of the flower.
I really like the mycelium block because one time I found one of these islands, and I had a silk, touch tool and gathered up all the mycelium and brought it back to my base for it to spread. It’s really good for preventing mobs to spawn instead of just using torches all over your base.
My current world (bedrock 1.19) has occasional azalea trees on the surface, and a fair amount of lush caves underneath, as well as small grass patches on the edges at times. This makes for fairly easy early game terraforming without silk touch.
In my last few worlds I've set up my base on mushroom islands, mostly for the safety. I thought I knew everything about mushroom biomes. How wrong I was! There is so much cool stuff on this game.
I have to say that I'm surprised mushrooms can't grow on rooted dirt like it would on podzol. Also, way back in the beta days, mooshroom islands were so rare, and the performance and tools to find pretty bad, that it almost felt like an urban myth. Nowadays with blocklight level requirements being lowered to 0 from 7 for mobs to spawn there's less incentive to go hunt for mooshroom islands, but they're still pretty neat I suppose.
Easily my favorite biome. I usually end up terraforming it because the colors are so vibrant. I once had a HUGE mushroom biome but it was a peninsula attached to a tiaga.
Something worth noting aswell, is that you can abuse Mushroom Islands, or rather the border of them, to very quickly build a 100% spawnrate mobfarm compared to other places in the game. As no mobs can physically spawn in the 'shroom land itself, if you build up to around height 182 and then horizontally out over normal ocean, you can AFK closer to the ground than any other mobfarm without worrying about floor or cave lighting below you. Post-1.18, it is a very desirable way to do it to avoid going actually insane lighting up caves for over 10x as long as pre-1.18.
On a Vanilla server me and one my friends play on, we've claimed the only mushroom island on the server and have gotten completely lucky with all that's spawned there. So far we've managed to find 3+ zombie spawners, a skelly spawner, and a spider spawner(found in a abandoned mineshaft underneath the island. We've also managed to find a lush cave and multiple geodes. Plus not to far off from the island on either side are 2 ocean monuments. So not only are we getting decent xp and materals from the spawners, amethyst from the geodes and axolotls from the lush caves, but once we conquer the monuments we plan on turning them into farms as well. Needless to say moving to the island has been extremely lucky for us...and that's all of what we've found so far, who knows what else is on the island
I have been playing on Java 1.19.2 seed: 314408172022. Massive mooshroom isle at x 1175, z 3. Has a massive lush cave below. Spawn is in a mesa with a massive mine at x 88, z -388 that has a dripstone cave and a deep dark. I made a connecting tunnel between the 2 coordinate sets at y -59 and got around 85 diamond nodes. There are also 2 or 3 ocean temples near the Mooshroom island. Bedrock is fairly similar generation. There are some stark variances, but still very similar too.
When you said there is no way of knowing the snow covered mycelium isn’t grass it looked like you could still see the spore particles coming up from under the snow, it may have just been from the other mycelium though
I was rather surprised when I found a pretty sizeable mushroom island not too far away from my world spawn (approximately 1000 blocks, but I might be wrong), albeit through Chunkbase. Also, mushrooms can actually spread and grow on their own? What? I never knew that. Funny enough, I actually attempted to give a reason why nothing spawns on mushroom islands except for mushroom cows. The reason is that anything living that comes in contact with mycelium will slowly convert into mushroom itself and become a part of the island. The mycelium converted everything on the islands except for the cows, who somehow developed a symbiotic relationship with the mycelium and became moosrooms. And in my headcanon it was that anyone who drinks mooshroom-produced stew will be assimilated into mycelium. And for this reason the islands were used by nearby pirates to deal with traitors and other unwanted individuals. They would leave them on these seemingly peaceful islands with no materials to make a boat from, with no food. So that they could either starve to death or drink mushroom stew and slowly be assimilated by the mycelium.
a sky-to-bedrock spawn focus with minimal digging, yeah, I made one of these back before expanded build height, though honestly my MCedited 1000x1000 glass-coated void zone got better rates somehow and I never figured out why before the build height expanded. it both does and doesn't work, wish I could tell you why.
....A popular theory on why these mushroom biomes with their rarity & island nature is that the island itself is built on top of dead mushrooms made over centuries, like corals.
My main base and is a giant mushroom island. Like, thousands of blocks long/wide (because of large biomes). I had a lake generate inside of the island and due to the fact the lake is ocean biome, mobs can spawn in that small area only. This allowed me to make a super efficient mob farm without lighting up a huge number of caves. Other ways I have used the no-mob spawning property of the biome is by making underground catacombs without a lot of lighting and make use of the darkness as an aesthetic aspect of the the build.
I used mushroom biomes and oceans in 1.19 to push my spawn away from 0.0 so that I have a stronghold right next to my spawn. They made some changes to this recently, but I'm keeping my world :). I have an ender toilet setup at spawn that detects items, so I can always teleport to spawn from the end dimension, and back to the end from there. It's a very handy setup to save time.
I found a mushroom island not far from home, it's at the bottom of my home/spawn map. However, it was the saddest excuse for one lol. had a couple mushrooms, with a total of about 24 mycelium blocks lol.
I have a fair amount of podzol in my village and planted brown mushrooms under various structures. I'm in my village quite a bit, so at any given time there are a lot of mushrooms that can be harvested.
I had used a seed with a beautiful jungle/mushroom island spawn in 1.17 or something, so now I wanna try that seed in 1.20. I loved that world a lot so this video makes me wanna play on a mushroom island.
No they do not, you can even be chased by a group of phantoms from a regular boom and as soon as you get to the mooshroom island they despawn. They never spawn above the island either.
@@ryanpongracz8051 No, this is false information. I Played enough on mushroom Islands troughout versions and even in 1.19.2. Phantoms can still Attack and Spawn on the mushroom islands.

@@Eyecraftmc True, I mean since they Spawn on the Air they can still Spawn over you on mushroom Islands. As Long as you get enough sleep they wont Brother you ofc on mushroom Islands, even when still a Potential Threat. From my Experience drowned can also be Problems on mushroom Islands as they get very Close to you and the onrs with Trident are ruthless. What I also Experienced is that ocean Monuments have a high Chance of spawning Close to mushroom Islands due to same deep water biome necessity. So they can Sometimes be right at the shores of mushroom Islands which also can be Seen as a Potential Threat/danger to Players. Even in Hardcore... I found a mushroom Islands recently in my Hardcore world .. it is circled by a lot ocean Monuments and orher Island + a lot ice peaks.
i made a portal to the closest one for food purposes. literally makes all food farms obsolete when you can get stacks of beef and leather in 10 mins with looting.
Fun Fact! Mooshrooms (brown and red) are the only convertible mod through lightning that are immune to the damage! You can test it through hitting an armor stand next to a mooshroom so they won't get hit by the trident or fire!
Im based on a mooshroom island now and its good. The problem is the lack immediate resources early game its rough moving stuff there without nether portals. I got one with a monument right next door which will be great for rates, a lush cave beneath, i moved some villagers there too. Its gonna be dope. Though gotta watch out for zombie sieges that is the only way a zombie will spawn on the island surface.
One of my first major worlds (in the ancient year of 2013 on Xbox 360) I played had a Mushroom Island not far from spawn. It's been nine years and I haven't seen one since. One day I'll find this glorious land again!

The lore they give by making mushroom islands ONLY in deep oceans mostly far away from everything cut off from the world with the little hints we have of it even taking over grass means it’d probably spread and take the world or huge chunks of it if it ever touched land
I'm not certain if this video is simply outdated or outright wrong however it is possible for lush caves, mine-shafts and dungeons to generate under a mooshroom biome even if that is rather rare this means their is the possibility of hostile mobs spawning "under" said biome.
So I found a muchroom biome. Got one block onto it, and went to make a coffee. A drowned found me, and followed me up to the main area attacking me all the way.
Op early game item: Feed poppy to a brown cow, the stew will give you 5 second night vision! Cool stuff for caving. Under 10 days you will most likely find a brown cow, thunderstorms can make them.
Brown mooshrooms do not spawn naturally, so you would have to either get a channelling trident, or wait for one to get struck naturally, so I'd argue it is not easy.
@@amos.rand_vfxyou can use a lightning rod as well. But in a scenario where you build your base there, start working on basic farms or just mining and accidentally wait through a thunderstorm without sleeping... I have found several brown ones hanging around in my world
Not really op, because the effect is for only 5 seconds so you would have to spend time eating a lot of them if you actually wanted to find ores and stuff.
@@ihatethisaccount yeah, but you can get a basic idea how big/what shape your cavesystem is... Or if your cave reaches outside the mooshroom "protective area" you can locate groupes of mobs, and watch out before you head into the unknown

Hello, Here is a map seed for 1.19.3, that has 2 small Mooshroom island at these co-ordinates ( X: - 788, Z: - 1035). If you are also looking for Deep Dark with an Ancient City, this same map has one at these co-ordinates (X: -1763, Y: -50, Z: -2465). I am using this map on Mc Realms, so if you would like to see this world in-game, friend me through Mc, and I will add you to my realm. FeyLeChat72
Good luck!
Something similar happened to me:
World 1: tiny 2x3 sand island with nothing but ocean all around, managed to swim to a small island with only 1 tree and some grass and survived off of kelp until I could travel to bigger land
World 2: spawned in a MESA with nothing but mesa, desert, and endless ocean for at least 500 blocks around. Managed to find a wooded badlands biome, chopped down trees and survived off of apples for a while. Managed to use the cobwebs in mineshafts for string to make a bed and a fishing rod for food until I was able to find a jungle about 1200 blocks away
Would have loved to spawn on a mushroom island :P
@@feywynnightrunner9380 I found an awesome seed on a deeko short. I think that’s the channel name. I’m using the seed on my realm called “quite quarry” it is the best seed I have ever used. I spawn on a massive grotto where I built my village home with some friends. There’s three villages nearby with 2 ruined portals and a pillager tower. Not to mention right under the quarry is an ancient city. So many cool seeds now microsoft really has done minecraft right imo
I like them because hostile mob farms don't need to be located in crazy places. I've built collection chambers underground just outside of the mushroom biome, and it spawns hostiles very fast (as it's the only place to spawn).
The reason you cant naturally spawn on a mooshroom island is that you are a hostile mob
I have spawned in the middle of the ocean with no land in sight, in the middle of a pit of LAVA, and basically in horrible and desolate places. I think it's hilarious that we can't spawn on mushroom islands, yet spawning in worse places is still possible lmao
IKR HAHAHA
I have spawned on a very small island about 10 blocks in diameter
With nothing but one tree. Thankfully there was kelp so I managed to make a lot of bonemeal to grow trees and survive
I always loved going to the Mushroom island back on the Xbox 360 edition when the map was limited to a small chunk.
But in current versions of Minecraft, finding the island is an endeavor all on its own
If one ever even generated.
I remember like 8/10 Seeds were ENDLESS Taiga.
Totally forgot that mushrooms islands were peaceful. About to build my base there, and make a mob farm on the outer ring of the island for maximum spawn capability
Great idea!
Check for lush caves beneath the island. Mibs can spawn there. That way you can have a mob farm in the middle of your island.
You can make an instant growth chamber for the mushrooms if you surround yourself in dirt leaving the two blocks of air, place the mushroom at your feet in darkness, destroy the block over your head and then bonemeal it. Should let you produce giant mushrooms anywhere you'd like without blocking out the Sun
It would be great if you could stack the soup and stew.
it would be too op ig
If your crafting the suspicious stew instead of milking it from mooshrooms, you can store it uncrafted in your inventory so a stack of soup would only take up 3-4 slots
@@Eyecraftmc what if they added a pot of stew could have a bunch of soup in it, just like a cauldron
@@JumpyKaput nice idea
1 shulker = 27 suspicious stews(all saturation)
that plus a stack of gapples(adds hearts and defence) and 2 stacks of dried kelp(fastest meal, 2 bites per) is the best food setup on the go. Use stew sparingly, when safe and tired of eating kelp every 20 seconds
This video was cool to see. My 1.19 world I started a few weeks ago has a base on a mooshroom island. My house is a giant mushroom made from magma blocks and deepslate. It's one of my favorite builds so far.
Sounds nice!
I noticed that mushrooms grew on cobblestone I had placed and was going to ask about it but now I don't need to. Very informative video. Good work.
Yeah its so interesting how mushrooms can spread on any solid block
@@Eyecraftmc maybe the spores in the air make it possible for unique agricultural practices
I got the notification for the video AFTER I had started watching the video…
Why????🤣🤣🤣
A lot of mob farms saw their rates drop post 1.18 due to more caves creating dark spawning cave mobs. Mooshroom islands are a great way to counteract this so long as the biome is sufficiently deep (biomes are now 3d and don't necessarily go from the sky to the bedrock, as mentioned when something like a lush cavern biome is down there). Obviously the farm won't work on the island, but deep ocean is already a good option for spawnproofing for mob farms and the Mooshroom islands mean you can have over things around your farm without it having to be in the middle of nothing. It can be like having the benefits of peaceful mode for your mines, farms, and villages without the downsides of peaceful mode (no hostile drops).
If you have a kid or new player you want to put on your server to play with you, it can be a great place to start them out. Escort them to their island and let them learn the ropes on easy mode while still sharing your the world with you.
As far as being over powered? No, just slightly above normal in some ways - which is why it is a rare biome. The only thing truly OP in the game (other than exploits) is villager trading.
Man, I remember plating red mushrooms 2 blocks deep and then using bone mill to make a house was a very popular technic back in the day Mushroom Islands, swamps and jungles were the rarest biomes you could encounter.
They really stick out on the overworld map, but still such a strange place lol, feels like another planet, the real "Far Lands".
I've heard theories that maybe they are asteroids that fell in the ocean
9:50 from my limited testing both stews of regeneration and saturation are good in their own way like steak vs golden carrots.
Stew of regeneration preserves saturation by restoring HP with the regen effect, while stew of saturation will use up some of that saturation to heal.
Stew of regen can probably also heal more when starving while saturation heals faster when full hunger.
Considering they are unstackable most players won't eat these stews until necessary (very low hunger/health) to maximise benefit.
Of course in case HP is full then stew of saturation is better.
This guy uploads every day, amazes me the content he comes up with. Keep it up and congrats on 200k coming up
Thanks, although I don't upload daily, just 3x a week :D
I never knew much about this biome. I found a massive cave (hundreds of blocks wide, over 100 blocks tall) under a massive mushroom biome and have access to hundreds of diamonds without dealing with mobs.
I use leads to tether a whole bunch of red mooshrooms to a fencepost then place a lightning rod on top during a thunderstorm. One lightning bolt turns them all brown at once. But break the lightning rod before the next bolt or they'll all turn back!
Hi EyeCraft. Great content as always. Can you make a video explaining the spawn chunks, with things like how many chunks get always loaded, and some advise on how to take best advantage of them?
I have a suggestion regarding the "Mushroom Island being the only biome in the overworld that doesn't occur in real life (05:22)". Mushroom mycelium networks cover huge portions of our terrestrial world. The largest organism on Earth is a fungus which has a mycelium footprint of 2,384 acres. Mushroom mycelium is responsible for the nitrogen cycle. I propose the Mushroom Island does exist in the the real world: It's almost everywhere you look! 🍄
Additional note, I don't think ice spikes occur in real life.
The mushroom island does not occur in real life. There are no giant mushrooms
@@BrambleJamThe swamp does not occur in real life. Their are no giant mushrooms
It would be great to breed two animals other than cows on a mushroom island and get a "mushroom version" of them. Picture the muddy pig with the flower on his head that was only in minecraft Earth, but with a mushroom instead of the flower.
I really like the mycelium block because one time I found one of these islands, and I had a silk, touch tool and gathered up all the mycelium and brought it back to my base for it to spread. It’s really good for preventing mobs to spawn instead of just using torches all over your base.
it's actually realistic to have the brown mushrooms have a light level, as irl honey fungus glows in the dark
My current world (bedrock 1.19) has occasional azalea trees on the surface, and a fair amount of lush caves underneath, as well as small grass patches on the edges at times.
This makes for fairly easy early game terraforming without silk touch.
Why is it the most educational video I have seen for like several years on minecraft detail. Thumbs up!
In my last few worlds I've set up my base on mushroom islands, mostly for the safety. I thought I knew everything about mushroom biomes. How wrong I was! There is so much cool stuff on this game.
I was thinking about mushrooms and mushroom fields recently. Peaceful and useful. 😁
I have to say that I'm surprised mushrooms can't grow on rooted dirt like it would on podzol.
Also, way back in the beta days, mooshroom islands were so rare, and the performance and tools to find pretty bad, that it almost felt like an urban myth. Nowadays with blocklight level requirements being lowered to 0 from 7 for mobs to spawn there's less incentive to go hunt for mooshroom islands, but they're still pretty neat I suppose.
Easily my favorite biome. I usually end up terraforming it because the colors are so vibrant.
I once had a HUGE mushroom biome but it was a peninsula attached to a tiaga.
Land connected mushroom fields were the best, its too bad they aren't possible anymore
Just to clarify, skeleton horses can also spawn, which in turn, spawn Skeleton riders.
I’ve had this happen to me three times on the same island.
They kill me one time so i took their skeleton horse its too op for long traveling
Just finished the video. Loved it so much. Didn’t know about the world spawn or the flower thing. Very nice!
Something worth noting aswell, is that you can abuse Mushroom Islands, or rather the border of them, to very quickly build a 100% spawnrate mobfarm compared to other places in the game. As no mobs can physically spawn in the 'shroom land itself, if you build up to around height 182 and then horizontally out over normal ocean, you can AFK closer to the ground than any other mobfarm without worrying about floor or cave lighting below you. Post-1.18, it is a very desirable way to do it to avoid going actually insane lighting up caves for over 10x as long as pre-1.18.
you can also plant mushrooms on grass at night if you want to grow trees or have mushrooms out in the open
On a Vanilla server me and one my friends play on, we've claimed the only mushroom island on the server and have gotten completely lucky with all that's spawned there. So far we've managed to find 3+ zombie spawners, a skelly spawner, and a spider spawner(found in a abandoned mineshaft underneath the island. We've also managed to find a lush cave and multiple geodes. Plus not to far off from the island on either side are 2 ocean monuments. So not only are we getting decent xp and materals from the spawners, amethyst from the geodes and axolotls from the lush caves, but once we conquer the monuments we plan on turning them into farms as well. Needless to say moving to the island has been extremely lucky for us...and that's all of what we've found so far, who knows what else is on the island
Mushroom and lush cave
My favourite biomes ❤
I just spawned next to a huge mushroom island yesterday and what do you know there was a lush cave underneath it.
I have been playing on Java 1.19.2 seed: 314408172022. Massive mooshroom isle at x 1175, z 3. Has a massive lush cave below. Spawn is in a mesa with a massive mine at x 88, z -388 that has a dripstone cave and a deep dark. I made a connecting tunnel between the 2 coordinate sets at y -59 and got around 85 diamond nodes. There are also 2 or 3 ocean temples near the Mooshroom island. Bedrock is fairly similar generation. There are some stark variances, but still very similar too.
Excellent video!!! 😀
Thanks Bob Ross!
When you said there is no way of knowing the snow covered mycelium isn’t grass it looked like you could still see the spore particles coming up from under the snow, it may have just been from the other mycelium though
That is true, although they are very slight and most players aren't on all particles
7:20 you can put a sheep next to a Mooshroom and strike it to protect the Mooshroom from accidental death
Why a sheep specifically?
@@gramioerie_xi133 works on every animal put a sheep is easier to group with a Mooshroom when you hold wheat in your off hand
I'm surprised no one is mentioning phantoms. They spawn in mushroom fields and attack the player at night
I was rather surprised when I found a pretty sizeable mushroom island not too far away from my world spawn (approximately 1000 blocks, but I might be wrong), albeit through Chunkbase. Also, mushrooms can actually spread and grow on their own? What? I never knew that.
Funny enough, I actually attempted to give a reason why nothing spawns on mushroom islands except for mushroom cows. The reason is that anything living that comes in contact with mycelium will slowly convert into mushroom itself and become a part of the island. The mycelium converted everything on the islands except for the cows, who somehow developed a symbiotic relationship with the mycelium and became moosrooms. And in my headcanon it was that anyone who drinks mooshroom-produced stew will be assimilated into mycelium. And for this reason the islands were used by nearby pirates to deal with traitors and other unwanted individuals. They would leave them on these seemingly peaceful islands with no materials to make a boat from, with no food. So that they could either starve to death or drink mushroom stew and slowly be assimilated by the mycelium.
Never trust a fungus.
soo basically the best place to build a creeper farm
a sky-to-bedrock spawn focus with minimal digging, yeah, I made one of these back before expanded build height, though honestly my MCedited 1000x1000 glass-coated void zone got better rates somehow and I never figured out why before the build height expanded. it both does and doesn't work, wish I could tell you why.
@@SuiseisexyHi
....A popular theory on why these mushroom biomes with their rarity & island nature is that the island itself is built on top of dead mushrooms made over centuries, like corals.
My main base and is a giant mushroom island. Like, thousands of blocks long/wide (because of large biomes).
I had a lake generate inside of the island and due to the fact the lake is ocean biome, mobs can spawn in that small area only. This allowed me to make a super efficient mob farm without lighting up a huge number of caves.
Other ways I have used the no-mob spawning property of the biome is by making underground catacombs without a lot of lighting and make use of the darkness as an aesthetic aspect of the the build.
I found a mushroom biome that was just like 7 mycelium blocks together, that’s literally all it was 😂
I used mushroom biomes and oceans in 1.19 to push my spawn away from 0.0 so that I have a stronghold right next to my spawn. They made some changes to this recently, but I'm keeping my world :). I have an ender toilet setup at spawn that detects items, so I can always teleport to spawn from the end dimension, and back to the end from there. It's a very handy setup to save time.
I found a mushroom island not far from home, it's at the bottom of my home/spawn map. However, it was the saddest excuse for one lol. had a couple mushrooms, with a total of about 24 mycelium blocks lol.
I have a fair amount of podzol in my village and planted brown mushrooms under various structures. I'm in my village quite a bit, so at any given time there are a lot of mushrooms that can be harvested.
I can't believe how good your content is
Playing on murshroom island is cool. It's thrilling to watch all the process that you survival to get out of this!! Great content
Can you do some videos specific to smp , about getting rich faster,and getting op items faster if you can :)
Very helpful video, I am a bedrock player and I never knew Java had such pretty grass colors! Im jealous!😂
Bro that’s in bedrock too
Thanks for this informative video.
I had used a seed with a beautiful jungle/mushroom island spawn in 1.17 or something, so now I wanna try that seed in 1.20. I loved that world a lot so this video makes me wanna play on a mushroom island.
I'm playing in an odd world atm, where deserts, mushroom biomes and warm oceans are almost non-existent
Great video. Keep on doing them.
I love the flower mechanic for suspcious stew. I've been working so hard to make it without the Mooshrooms.
The brown mushroom block compliments spruce wood items and brick.
healermicheal¿
Pretty sure that's what happened to my world, the closest land to 0,0 in a mushroom island but spawn is super far away from 0,0
Aww I wish I could find a mooo mooo island too!! I'd bring home 2 of each and start a little strawberry milk factory :D
Nice video. I appreciate all the information I didn't know. Thanks a ton
Hmm.. you forgot the Phantoms that still Attack you on mushroom Islands.
No they do not, you can even be chased by a group of phantoms from a regular boom and as soon as you get to the mooshroom island they despawn. They never spawn above the island either.
@@ryanpongracz8051 No, this is false information.
I Played enough on mushroom Islands troughout versions and even in 1.19.2. Phantoms can still Attack and Spawn on the mushroom islands. Please restrain yourself from spreading any false information in Future when you have No clue about how the Game works. Thank you.
They can thats true but they are not spawning specifically on the mushroom island but rather as part of an external event (somewhat like pillagers)
@@Eyecraftmc True, I mean since they Spawn on the Air they can still Spawn over you on mushroom Islands. As Long as you get enough sleep they wont Brother you ofc on mushroom Islands, even when still a Potential Threat.
From my Experience drowned can also be Problems on mushroom Islands as they get very Close to you and the onrs with Trident are ruthless. What I also Experienced is that ocean Monuments have a high Chance of spawning Close to mushroom Islands due to same deep water biome necessity. So they can Sometimes be right at the shores of mushroom Islands which also can be Seen as a Potential Threat/danger to Players. Even in Hardcore... I found a mushroom Islands recently in my Hardcore world .. it is circled by a lot ocean Monuments and orher Island + a lot ice peaks.
i made a portal to the closest one for food purposes. literally makes all food farms obsolete when you can get stacks of beef and leather in 10 mins with looting.
4:34 i can attest, that still happens to me, the closest biome was a Mesa that didn’t even have trees
Fun Fact! Mooshrooms (brown and red) are the only convertible mod through lightning that are immune to the damage! You can test it through hitting an armor stand next to a mooshroom so they won't get hit by the trident or fire!
You see a peaceful place where cows can roam unbothered among the toadstools, I see a place so hostile that *even creepers can't live there.*
The grass color here is q throwback to the old neony green color of the default grass from beta snd further back.
Im based on a mooshroom island now and its good. The problem is the lack immediate resources early game its rough moving stuff there without nether portals. I got one with a monument right next door which will be great for rates, a lush cave beneath, i moved some villagers there too. Its gonna be dope. Though gotta watch out for zombie sieges that is the only way a zombie will spawn on the island surface.
Yup just set up a nether portal to the main land.
One of my first major worlds (in the ancient year of 2013 on Xbox 360) I played had a Mushroom Island not far from spawn. It's been nine years and I haven't seen one since. One day I'll find this glorious land again!

Lol someone in his server decided to build the shape of Texas into the mushroom island 😂😂
with the snow there is a way to tell the two apart, you can still see the spores coming off the mycelium
I like mycelium because its the only other grass type that spreads. I always try to load up a chuckbase just to find it and snag a few mooshrooms.
I found the perfect seed for a mooshroom base! Thanks for the inspo ❤️
I bought mine from an online store On IG¿
healermicheal¿
The lore they give by making mushroom islands ONLY in deep oceans mostly far away from everything cut off from the world with the little hints we have of it even taking over grass means it’d probably spread and take the world or huge chunks of it if it ever touched land
Yay! Perfect timing 💯
4:28 Also icy spikes which is living hell if you can’t get out of it by night from the strays
Imagine if you could get just the mycelium and then if you feed a regular cow mycelium it turns into a mooshroom
I'm not certain if this video is simply outdated or outright wrong however it is possible for lush caves, mine-shafts and dungeons to generate under a mooshroom biome even if that is rather rare this means their is the possibility of hostile mobs spawning "under" said biome.
So I found a muchroom biome. Got one block onto it, and went to make a coffee. A drowned found me, and followed me up to the main area attacking me all the way.
Wow didnt know about that stew thing with flowers. And I have been playing since beta
Op early game item:
Feed poppy to a brown cow, the stew will give you 5 second night vision!
Cool stuff for caving. Under 10 days you will most likely find a brown cow, thunderstorms can make them.
Brown mooshrooms do not spawn naturally, so you would have to either get a channelling trident, or wait for one to get struck naturally, so I'd argue it is not easy.
@@amos.rand_vfxyou can use a lightning rod as well.
But in a scenario where you build your base there, start working on basic farms or just mining and accidentally wait through a thunderstorm without sleeping... I have found several brown ones hanging around in my world
Not really op, because the effect is for only 5 seconds so you would have to spend time eating a lot of them if you actually wanted to find ores and stuff.
@@ihatethisaccount yeah, but you can get a basic idea how big/what shape your cavesystem is...
Or if your cave reaches outside the mooshroom "protective area" you can locate groupes of mobs, and watch out before you head into the unknown
Armed with this information, i think i might try and trick my son into building a huge mob farm over a mooshroom island.
5:18 Wait, what about the Mesa Plateau and the Badlands? I don't remember a place that had concrete mountains and orange sand existing in real life.
Check out Bryce canyon
@@puzzlegal17 I wouldn't call that red nor brow. It looks really orange and yellow tho.
I got lucky and found me a decent sized Mushroom island, I almost never leave the place 😂.
I got me a little wildlife preserve going, got a lotta chickens and cows, I’ve just started breeding pigs and bees now. Also mine spawned in the middle of Luke warm ocean so there’s a lotta coral all around it and at night it’s nice to look around and see the ocean glowing from all the coral.. I didn’t know how to grow tall shrooms tho, thanks for that info!
I stumbled on one last night on me and my friends realm. I nearly shit myself. I haven’t seen one in 8+ years in a survival world.
I have a trading center on a mushroom island and a zombie pigman farm so can confirm even tho it's a hostile free space you can still have zombie pigman spawn in. I also have a mob spawner 100 blocks off shore
