Mushroom Grass Seeds

Mushroom Grass Seeds are a kind of Seeds that have a chance to drop from harvesting Glowing Mushrooms and can be used to grow your own Glowing Mushroom farm.

They must be planted on Mud Blocks underground (below 0ft depth) in order to grow Glowing Mushrooms. Once the seeds have been planted in a suitable location, the blue grass from the seeds will spread over time. The blue grass as well as the mushrooms that grow on it give off a nice level of light, less than a torch but enough to see clearly (when placed against a solid wall, the light will penetrate 2 solid blocks). Also note that the blue grass seems to spread faster when it isn't lit up by any other light source but its own. Mushroom grass does not require water.

Since patch 1.0.5, otherwise unsupported mud blocks have a chance to fall down whenever a nearby block is updated (this includes when grass spreads to them or a mushroom grows). Once the grass has actually spread to the block, however, it will no longer fall down unless the grass is subsequently removed. Thus when building some of the layouts shown below (particularly the more compact ones) you may wish to use wooden platforms or other blocks (eg. stone) beneath the mud blocks, at least until the grass spreads to them.
