You know... with the intro of mud - they could introduce a new food crop: RICE! That would be a cool thing to make mangrove swamp more liveable in a future update
Ive been begging for more food since berries were added. We NEED more food, rice would even introduce things like sushi! It wouldnt be too hard to craft; kelp, fish, rice (im assuming there wont be a plant based version). An excellent new food source. Rice>>>>>>>>
Adding wheat or some sort of fiber to mud makes adobe which is much stronger and allows the mud to hold it's shape better. Dried or fired into bricks and it's basically rock. Pickax to mine makes perfect sense.
It's usually called "cob" ... it can be used to chink log cabins, coat structures that would otherwise not be insulated, etc. Both strengthens and provides insulation from cold/heat.
Cob is a liquid used to make a free form shape Adobe is a brick. The strength is not compression strength. The straw acts as suspension cables to stop it from cracking. The difference between trying to fold paper and trying to fold a whole newspaper. It also greatly reduces weight which increases "strength" by reducing load
Wattles. Adding grass or organic material to mud and drying it gives you mankind's first truly engineered building material... Adobe! We've been using it since like 5,500 BC and its still in use today. In california, there are adobe spanish churches that are still standing after 500 years! The Hopi people of arizona used adobe to build thier cliff dwellings... some of those are over 1,000 years old and still there. The grass provides a fibrous reinforcement to the sticky earth and makes the bricks far stronger in compression - allowing for multistory earth buildings. Just packed dry mud bricks tend to crumble in compression when used in walls.
No joke, adobe with fiber has the exact same logic of _reinforced concrete._ Same principles apply and everything! Heck, there's even high-tech fibrous concrete mixing wet concrete and synthetic fibers just like you mix mud and plant fiber.
It's even called "WATTLE and daub" if you talk about early houses and structures in Europe (early as in prehistoric up till late medieval). You weave a wall to create the wattle and then daub the mud&straw mix onto it.
I think dirt should become mud if water has a source block of flows over it for a certain amount of time. I would make all of the rivers and oceans that have underwater dirt become more realistic
Or they could just change the generation of the blocks so it makes every dirt that spawn in a river biome and an ocean biome a mud block That's a cool mod idea since they won't do it
The neat thing about farming sugarcane now with mud, is that you can also have water source in the mangrove roots. It wont need to be sealed in by other blocks. It wont ruin redstone. It can just be a slim and quick build to make.
@@SlayingPotato I work with concrete as a career: over a course of years adobe will harden to be on par with concrete. Concrete can reach resistance strengths of 5000 psi over a course of days. Most roads have a resistance of around 50,000 psi. As far as environmental impact adobe is the better choice; for longitivtiy concrete is the way to go. Concrete uses powdered limestone which creates an exothermic reaction, heating up and hardening into another compound. The limestone has to be quarried and processed and the sand and gravel have to be specifically chosen. River sand and desert sand is too round and processed sand and gravel is too sharp-edged. The sand and gravel, called aggregate, is used to add strength combined with rebar(steel rods) to add tensile and flexibility to the now “rock” formation. The straw inside of adobe does the same thing. Adobe can erode over the years and needs constant maintenance. Concrete will not erode to anything less that decades of wear from heavy acidic rain and wind.
You can place 3 water bottles in a cauldron, you can extract that water with a bucket, which you can place in 1 block, so a bottle contains aprox 333.33 liters of water
@@W4rgalactic sounds about right, I've worked with adobe clay, cob, stray/clay slip, etc., And a ratio of .9:3 would be just on the sloppy side, not accounting for adding straw to it for cob.
It could be even more than that if we take flowing water into account. We can also argue that they contain infinite water as we can make an infinite source from the water in 6 bottles
13:14 I've got a concept that I thought was being referenced when he mentioned flowers can be placed on mud at 11:19. My mind didn't go to bee farms. It went to using _wither roses._ Plant a wither rose on top of mud, then have a mob walk into the wither rose, die, and have its blocks go through the mud block into the hopper underneath.
I want them so that if you right click with a hoe it makes mud farmland or something normal farmland with the mud texture on the sides and dark grey on the top just a muddy looking farmland block anyway it'd be constantly wet and doesn't need water nearby
You can't use packed mud in the stone cutter but you definitely CAN put Mud Bricks in the stone cutter! Plz like so wattles can see this and won't be sad anymore because there totally is a way to get cheap slabs, walls, and stairs!
The wheat adds fibers to give the mud block tensile strength. They do it with concrete, except the fibres are from something else than wheat. EDIT: Should have read the comments before I raced to give my two cents about the wheat and mud thing.
Yep. About the biggest flaw pf reinforced concrete is that the steel “fibers” rust and push apart the concrete from the inside out. There’s also been new developments to try and solve that which lead to the creation of hempcrete and mykrete.
The wheat fibers going across the mud give it structural integrity (makes it harder to pull it apart) and disperse impacts along the whole material, making it way stronger once mud dries Random fact: the same happens if you mix a bunch of cotton into water and freeze it, it becomes a very sturdy material
I do not make automated farms ever, so seeing that we can set up a sugar cane or bamboo farm on mud, put hoppers under all the mud blocks, then just mow through the crops when they're done and everything will just fall through the mud into the hoppers is SWEEEEEEEEEEEEET! I don't have to run back and forth collecting every little straggling little piece of sugar cane or bamboo! I can just go nuts with my hoe and demolish everything and it will all get piped into my chests!
What a cool way to stock up on emeralds: waterlog dirt to convert to mud use dripstone to convert mud to clay trade with stone mason to trade clay for emeralds use emeralds to buy shovel from tool smith (1 emerald = 1 stone shovel) use shovel to dig up dirt Wash, rinse repeat
12:10 This is just so revolutionary (as you said), it’s hard to set up minecart hopper collectors, so I’m very excited. I’ll welcome it with open arms.
I'm not so sure about sugar cane without water, just feels a little too simple. I didn't know you could use soul sand like that either, always something new to learn with this game.
So i think the mud block IS the same exact size as other blocks, but the reason you go down when stepping on it is because of sinking. In real life mud is squishy and you sink a bit when you stand on it, so maybe thats why it acts like a path block :)
You can make mud brick stairs with the stone cutter, you just need to put in the mud bricks instead of the packed mud, works for slabs, stairs and walls.
Hey Wattles, great video as always!! Quick question, did you try using a boat from a mud block to a "normal size" block? I mean, since it has the "bump" you mentioned maybe you can't pass to another block with a boat, just like path blocks. May be an interesting experiment.
So basically now Clay is infinite in the world now 1. Make a gold farm 2. Barter with Piglins 3. Get water bottles and gravel from them 4. Use the gravel and dirt trick to make infinite dirt 5. Use the water bottles from a source block or piglins and combine it with dirt. 6. You have infinite mud now. 7. You can trade dripstone from wandering squidwards or grow it to make infinite dripstone 8. Use dripstone and mud to make infinite clay
The mud block is the same size as normal solid blocks, and I have proof. If you stand on the mud block, two pixels of your player’s feet sink into the mud and are no longer visible, whereas if you stand on a normal block, you can see your entire foot. This goes to show that the mud block is not two pixels shorter than any average block, but is as a player simply sink into the block, causing our vision to be bumped down as well. I think the concept behind this is that our players are supposed to be sunk into the mud like you would in real life.
You know, here's my question: Since mud is just wet dirt, will it act as a waterlogged block, like if a slab or staircase has water in it? Because then maybe you could just use these to border a farm with a maximum width of 8 blocks to irrigate it.
by adding the wheat to the mud it works like little bars holding the mud together and makes it keep shape and thats what people used to use for making things in the stone age and was called cobth
I saw someone say RICE! Peas and beans also grow in mud and it would be sick to have a giant beanstalk all the way to block limit and a giant castle too 😱
Hey wattles thank u for share valuable information and having a very great season of survival series, I hope you name me in series a villager as the poggies
An awesome mechanic would be if mud blocks were placed in a desert or in the nether, they eventually turn to clay as the moisture would be sucked out from the super dry and hot environment
I like how you’ve set this episode in a organized manner so that if I want to know something specific I could find it fairly quickly. The only thing that would make it faster would be time stamps. Great job!
5:49 when you step on mud, it's wet, you sink into it, so I can see why it's two pixel deep, deeper depends upon liquid, earth ratio... like the snow, it's possible to sink into it... so with that in mind I think quicksand would work well in the upcoming archeology updates, looking for shards and you step in some quickmud/sand! and should be more abundant in the swamp biomes and mud lining the rivers, a normal dirt topping mud a few blocks below the water level, with some clay mixed through it... and if you mine these blocks the water turns the fresh dry block into mud... instant, like water, lava, cobblestone mechanics.
If been watching a lot of primitive building videos where these guys make amazing houses out of just mud mixed with hay and like bamboo doors so I am pumped to build my own earthen house in Minecraft!
A good example of how Mud Bricks were made is in the movie the Ten Commandments where you see the Hebrew people stomping the straw into the mud to make the bricks for the temples.
I feel like you should be able to extract clay from this as well, as you can in real life. I would love for minecraft to add a plaster function. That you can craft plasters from clay, mud or loam and apply it with your hand. It would change the facing surface of the block you plastered into a plastered surface, the colour and texture depending on which materials you used(Like how flowers give different dyes.) It could even be that if you apply it with the hand it looks rough, and with a trowel(new tool for the game?) you could make it smooth(Like how you can debark a log with an axe.) This could open up a world of possibilties, especially if you want to build medieval style houses, want to cover up a wall you had to construct from ugly/non-matching materials in survival or want to camouflage that your cute looking house is in fact an obsidian fortress(Like how the Swiss camouflaged bunkers to look like cottages). In real life clay gets it's colour from the difference in mineral contents, where i live the clay has a high iron content and thus the brick turns a nice red(like in minecraft) but in other areas it's more grayish, brown or yellow. It would be cool if clay could be different in different biomes, so depending on what clay you use you get different coloured bricks and with those bricks you can different coloured brick blocks. In real life sometimes different colours of brick are mixed, at random or to make patterns: It's difficult to implemment that in Minecraft(There goes your computing power lol) but it could be added that if you try to make a brick block from different bricks you'll get a "mixed brick block", would look funky and open up a world of fun. Bricks have been with us for more than thousends of years, from the humble mudbrick to the industrial era red brick churned out by the milions. Minecraft needs more bricks! This update is a welcome one. :)
Thereʼs something extremely important about packed mud you didnʼt mention: this is similar to (but not quite the same as) the IRL “wattle and daub” construction method. I wouldnʼt expect anyone else to cover that but itʼs a huge oversight for you to not.
Another use for the natural mud is how much it looks like clean gardening soil. You can set up little mud strips around a path or something, and grow trees, bamboo and flowers in a more cultivated way than with grass
the hopper minecart thing may really cut the space and cost of my sugar cane or bamboo farm, its just needing the block to be constantly waterlogged for the sugar cane and that will be nuts.
I think you should be able to till mud to grow stuff on it. If it is near a water source it will stay as tilled mud, but after quite some time it will turn to clay (slower than dripstone method) and need to be replaced.
Apparently hoppers no longer work with mud. (at least not on the PS4) I just used all my early game iron on hoppers for my bamboo farm, placed them under the mud and they won't pick anything up through the mud.
Having a black dirt option for plants is really cool for edgier looking builds. There won't be any dirty browns ruining the color interactions of Wither roses
Yo late to the party but for anyone catching up, either it was changed since this video or wattles missed it, you can add packed mud bricks to a stone cutter, just have to make sure u craft your packed mud into bricks first!
What happens to the mud block if placed in the nether? Does the moisture get cooked away and become dirt or does the mud bock persist? Seems like this would unlock huge farming potential in the nether if mud persists in the nether.
Of course, on Java Edition, you can just put hoppers under the beehives to collect honeycomb, but this is really cool that hoppers can suck items through mud blocks like soul soil.

I think dirt should become mud if water has a source block of flows over it for a certain amount of time. I would make all of the rivers and oceans that have underwater dirt become more realistic
could use same time duration like copper. smart
That would look so much better in oceans and rivers than the standard dirt
Or they could just change the generation of the blocks so it makes every dirt that spawn in a river biome and an ocean biome a mud block
That's a cool mod idea since they won't do it
That would grief worlds.....
As someone who really doesn't like using hopper minecarts for farms, mud really *is* revolutionary.
it would cost a hell of a lot more
Man, see the minecart in the rails is fun, is so boring doing everything with hoppers.

Not just the root any leaf as well!
They use the wheat+mud in real life too, they have either wheat or dry grass on the mud and let it dry. They make some whole houses like that
Oh yeah, adobe bricks!

Can anyone calculate how much water the bottles would need to contain to make mud out of a dry 1m³ dirt block?

4:45 because mud get stronger with wheat fibre. same thing happens in my village to make house we use rice stem instead of wheat.

Has there ever been a minecraft update where the technical changes weren't exploited in completely different ways than intended?

13:40 Agreed, I was hoping mud would count as "waterlogged" for farmland, similar to Mangrove roots
I want them so that if you right click with a hoe it makes mud farmland or something normal farmland with the mud texture on the sides and dark grey on the top just a muddy looking farmland block anyway it'd be constantly wet and doesn't need water nearby

Yep. About the biggest flaw pf reinforced concrete is that the steel “fibers” rust and push apart the concrete from the inside out. There’s also been new developments to try and solve that which lead to the creation of hempcrete and mykrete.
12:10 Basically when you're avoiding lag.
That's incredible!! (Mud)
The wheat fibers going across the mud give it structural integrity (makes it harder to pull it apart) and disperse impacts along the whole material, making it way stronger once mud dries
Random fact: the same happens if you mix a bunch of cotton into water and freeze it, it becomes a very sturdy material
Sawdust and frozen water also works incredibly well.
@@Ryukuro During WWII they were thinking of making aircraft carriers out of it, it's so strong.
This is also the same logic that makes reinforced concrete and a new material called mykrete (concrete reinforced with fungal hyphae) so strong.
I feel like the stonecutter way will come a little later. It'd be silly to not have it in there.
You already can, you just need to put the mud bricks themselves in instead of the packed mud.
Yeah that's cuz packed mud isn't rly a "stone" block so that's prob why

and soulsand remains useful since you can use it for soulspeed. It is neat, and you can turn dirt into mud into clay very easily now.

Bricks have been with us for more than thousends of years, from the humble mudbrick to the industrial era red brick churned out by the milions. Minecraft needs more bricks! This update is a welcome one. :)
Thereʼs something extremely important about packed mud you didnʼt mention: this is similar to (but not quite the same as) the IRL “wattle and daub” construction method.
I wouldnʼt expect anyone else to cover that but itʼs a huge oversight for you to not.
Just want to say, really appreciate the use of the skin for the first half of the video 🙏
9:38 Now I'm wondering. If you put two mud blocks on top of a pointed dripstone, would the top one become clay?
Yes, and the bottom one not
13:20 item sorter made with blue ice and mud. That may work interestinly
Another use for the natural mud is how much it looks like clean gardening soil. You can set up little mud strips around a path or something, and grow trees, bamboo and flowers in a more cultivated way than with grass
The face we can make clay now is awesome, it means you can get clay in super flat now
Wattles should just talk about sculk next. Maybe after that Mangrove stuff ect. 2 more videos :)
Seems like packed mud will be the most satisfying block to mine
When I first ever heard of getting mud in MC, I was always wondering whether it would come as a block or a liquid
they should have made it like powdered snow
the hopper minecart thing may really cut the space and cost of my sugar cane or bamboo farm, its just needing the block to be constantly waterlogged for the sugar cane and that will be nuts.
this is gonna be so good for primal builds i always wanted mud bricks in the game so this is exciting!
Jacksepticeye inspired intro? I can't tell if it's intentional or not lol
I’m actually surprised they didn’t make mud slow you down like Soul Sand.
It would make sense.
Small dripleafs can be placed on mud there just has to be a water block above the mud (only 1 with 2 it’ll break it)
Merry Christma!….. I mean Happy Easter!🐰🐇🐣
maybe a bit of a niche usage, but if you have rails below a mud block, a minecart on top of the mud will snap onto the rails below
I think you should be able to till mud to grow stuff on it. If it is near a water source it will stay as tilled mud, but after quite some time it will turn to clay (slower than dripstone method) and need to be replaced.
What about anvils?
Do anvils go to their item state when they wall on mud?
Apparently hoppers no longer work with mud. (at least not on the PS4) I just used all my early game iron on hoppers for my bamboo farm, placed them under the mud and they won't pick anything up through the mud.
Nice video . good luck
Big brain Wattles, releasing "everything to know" about something that isn't actually released yet and might change before it does...
You actually can use Mud Bricks in a stonecutter, just not Packed Mud into Mud Bricks. Craft the Bricks first and then use the stonecutter.
Having a black dirt option for plants is really cool for edgier looking builds. There won't be any dirty browns ruining the color interactions of Wither roses
Yo late to the party but for anyone catching up, either it was changed since this video or wattles missed it, you can add packed mud bricks to a stone cutter, just have to make sure u craft your packed mud into bricks first!
You can use the mud bricks (which is what you've done) in the stonecutter, not the packed mud
You can use mud bricks in a stone cutter. Wattles used packed mud instead of the mud bricks.
What happens to the mud block if placed in the nether? Does the moisture get cooked away and become dirt or does the mud bock persist? Seems like this would unlock huge farming potential in the nether if mud persists in the nether.
Of course, on Java Edition, you can just put hoppers under the beehives to collect honeycomb, but this is really cool that hoppers can suck items through mud blocks like soul soil.
HEY WATTLES they’re new hidden rooms in the Deep Dark city that players can hide in; they also contain chest but the loot consist of potatoes, carrots, and snowballs (with an chance of an enchantment book)
This is the best mud infomercial I've ever seen
Those mud bricks are going to be perfect brick roads to imitate medieval or ancient city road vibe
Any idea when 1.19 is coming out for both versions? Can’t wait for all these new items to build with! 😊
Thanks for making this update clear as mud!
Does the clay making fill a cauldron with water?
Dirt finally has a use. A way to dispose of unneaded dirt without really throwing it away
Cant wait to build a network of mud huts for my 1.19 survival build when it comes out
