'''Mangrove roots''' are blocks that form as part of [[mangrove]] trees. Despite being a full block, they can be [[Waterlogging|waterlogged]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Mangrove roots can be broken by hand, but using an [[axe]] is quickest. Mangrove roots drop themselves when broken with any tool.

{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Mangrove Roots|Axe|link=none}}

=== Natural generation ===
Mangrove roots are generated in [[mangrove swamp]] biomes.

=== Post-generation ===
When [[mangrove propagule]]s grow, they develop roots that can vary in size.

==Usage==

Mangrove roots can be [[Waterlogging|waterlogged]], despite being a full block. Water does not spread out{{only|je}} and waterlogged mangrove roots follow the same mechanics as any other [[Waterlogging#Mechanics|waterlogged]] block.

Mobs '''do''' spawn on mangrove roots.

===Redstone===
Redstone circuits can pass their power level through mangrove roots and power other redstone components that are adjacent to the block, even when waterlogged.{{only|je}}

===Crafting ingredient===
{{crafting usage}}

=== Composting ===
Mangrove roots have a 30% chance of increasing the compost level in a [[composter]] by 1.

=== Note blocks ===
Mangrove roots can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce "bass" sounds.

=== Fuel ===
When used in a furnace as fuel, mangrove roots last 15 seconds (smelting up to 1.5 items).{{only|je|short=1}}
