Overview
Green Candle is one of the 17 variants of Candle: same recipe, same hardness, same drops — only the look differs. The full write-up for the set is on the Candle page.
Green Candle counts as a coloured block in Minecraft 1.21.4. Green Candle has a crafting recipe, so it is renewable as long as you can source its ingredients. With a hardness of 0.1 it gives way immediately under almost any tool.
Any tool works, and so do bare hands. Mining it returns the block itself, so it is safe to relocate. It is transparent, which matters when you are managing light levels.
With a blast resistance of only 0.1 it will not survive an explosion. Sixty-four fit in one inventory slot. The recipe calls for Candle and Green Dye.
It is not used in any crafting recipe.
