Pitcher Pod

A pitcher pod is an ancient bulbous seed that has a chance to be dropped by sniffers when they finish digging. It is the seed of pitcher plants.

Obtaining

Sniffers occasionally bury their nose in the ground and start digging. Once the sniffer has finished digging, one pitcher pod has a chance to be dropped on the floor as an item. Sniffers can dig for pitcher pods only in the following blocks:

They cannot dig for pitcher pods on mycelium, which is intended.

Breaking

Pitcher crop is immediately destroyed when broken.

If the age of pitcher crop doesn't reach 4, it drops 1 pitcher pod when it's destroyed. If the age of pitcher crop reaches 4, it drops 1 pitcher plant when it's destroyed.

Pitcher crop

Pitcher pods can be placed on farmland by , where they grow through five stages as a pitcher crop. Unlike other crops, , bees cannot fertilize pitcher crops. Pitcher crops break if their supporting farmland breaks or turns to dirt (e.g. by being trampled), dropping their usual drops. Farmer villagers can plant pitcher pods, but cannot harvest them once they have fully grown. Pitcher crops at Age 0 can be trampled, but at Age 1 and above, they cannot be trampled.

Feeding

Pitcher pods can be used to breed chickens and reduce the remaining growth duration of chicks by 10%.

Taming

Pitcher pods can be used to tame parrots.

Composting

Placing a pitcher pod into a composter has a 30% chance of raising the compost level by 1.
