Pumpkin in Minecraft

In the world of Minecraft, pumpkins are a good source of food and craft some precious things like Golems, jack o lanterns, and many others that we are going to discuss below.

Where to get Pumpkins in Minecraft

Pumpkins in Minecraft aren’t very rare as they can be spotted across all biomes, and you can even find them in odd places like Woodland mansions and pillager outposts which are scary places to be at as they are flooding with hostile mobs.

How to use Pumpkins in Minecraft

A pumpkin is primarily a food block that restores your hunger points, but it can also be used in the following ways.

Creating an Iron Golem using a Pumpkin
The iron golem is a neutral mob that will not attack unless it is attacked first, and it is mainly spotted in villages of Minecraft. They are durable and require much time to kill, so don’t try them.

It also protects the villagers when they are attacked, as they can summon it, but it is a rare summoning. You can also use the iron golem as a guard to your base when you are sleeping.

It can be created by following our easy guide.

Jack o Lantern
Jack o Lantern lights up even the darkest places. Although it has that creepy look, it can come in handy during the night when the undead mobs spawn to kill the player.

It can be crafted easily by following this guide.

Carved Pumpkins
Carved pumpkins are meant to protect players as you can use them as helmets because when you are wearing one, Enderman will not attack you when looked in the eye.

You need to use Shears on them to convert them into carved pumpkins from simple pumpkins and then harvest them in the usual way.

Pumpkin Pie
The pumpkin pie requires one block of sugar, an egg, and a pumpkin on the crafting table. It is delicious and instantly restores your hunger points.

How to Make a Pumpkin Farm in Minecraft

Creating a pumpkin farm requires the following items,

1. Pumpkin seeds
2. A Hoe to make the land useable
3. Water bucket

Once you have the items mentioned above, follow these steps

Step 1: Select Layout
Pumpkins require a grassy block alongside them because when the fruit that comes isn’t placed on the same spot it was planted, make sure to have a space of at least one block with it, and here is a guide that may help you with it.

Step 2: Craft a Hoe
To make a block of land useable for farming, you must use a hoe on it, and once you are done, see the image below for the difference.

Step 3: Sow the Seeds and Wait
Now it is time to sow the seeds and make them grow but ensure they receive a light level of 10 because anything below that will not work.

And one of our pumpkins was put on the water surface, as you can see.
