Pumpkin Seeds

Pumpkin seeds are items obtained from pumpkins that can be used to grow pumpkin stems. Pumpkin stems are plants grown on farmland that, over time, grow pumpkins on dirt, mud and moss blocks adjacent to them.

Breaking

Farming

Pumpkin seeds can be planted only on farmland, as stems. Pumpkin stems need a light level of 9 or above to grow ( they need at least an internal light level of 9). Over time, a stem grows through several stages and, at its final growth stage, produces pumpkins on any adjacent dirt, coarse dirt, rooted dirt, grass block, farmland, podzol, mycelium, moss block, pale moss block, mud, or muddy mangrove roots. If a pumpkin is already occupying a spot adjacent to a stem, it does not grow more pumpkins until the pumpkin is removed. A single stem can grow an unlimited number of pumpkins. Pumpkin seeds are affected by bone meal only with respect to stem growth; bone meal does not help produce the actual pumpkins.
