'''Weeping vines''' are climbable downwards-growing vegetation [[blocks]] found in [[the Nether]] in [[Crimson Forest|crimson forests]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Weeping vines can be broken instantly using any [[tool]]. They have a 33% chance to drop a single weeping vine when broken, increased to 55% with [[Fortune]] I, 77% with Fortune II, and 100% with Fortune III. They always drop a single weeping vine when broken using [[shears]] or a tool enchanted with [[Silk Touch]]. Any segments left unsupported from above break with a 33% drop chance, regardless of the tool used. Accordingly, weeping vines are best harvested starting from the topmost block down.

=== Natural generation ===
Weeping vines generate naturally inside crevices within the ceilings, or on [[huge crimson fungi]] in the [[crimson forest]] biome.

=== Post-generation ===

A huge fungus grown by {{ctrl|using}} [[bone meal]] on a [[crimson fungus]] generates weeping vines growing on it.

Each random [[tick]], weeping vines have a 10% chance of growing one block downward. At default random tick speed, each fungus grows approximately every {{convert|13653|ticks|minutes}}. Weeping vines stop growing once they reach the ground or when the block reaches an {{cd|age}} block state of 25, whichever is first.

Bone meal can be used to extend weeping vines and can be used anywhere in the chain to extend the whole chain. This can be useful for getting down from a high place in the nether. 

== Usage ==

Weeping vines can be placed on, and grow from, the bottom of a block. The top-most vine block always has a starting age value of 0, which increments every time the block grows. If the bottom-most vine block has an age below 25, it continues to grow provided that there is free space below the vine. When the vine does grow, a new vine block with an incremented age value is placed beneath it.

Weeping vines stop growing if [[shears]] are {{control|used}} on the tip.‌{{only|java}}

===Climbing===

Weeping vines can be climbed by standing in them and holding the {{control|jump}} key. If there is a solid block behind the weeping vines, the {{control|walk forwards}} key can also be used.

===Compost===

Weeping vines can also be used on a [[composter]], with a 50% chance to raise the compost level by 1.
