Jungle Planks — Minecraft block

Overview

Jungle Planks is one of the 12 variants of this shape in the game. What changes between them is the material, and with it the hardness, the drops, the durability and the recipe — so every figure on this page is this variant's own. Oak Planks is the same shape in a different material.

Jungle Planks counts as a wooden block in Minecraft 1.21.4. A crafting table turns its ingredients into Jungle Planks. Its hardness of 2 makes it a normal, unhurried block to mine.

Mining it returns the block itself, so it is safe to relocate. A full stack holds 64. It is crafted from Jungle Log.

Its main value is as a crafting ingredient: 49 recipes need it, Barrel, Beehive, Black Bed and 46 more among them.

About the jungle set

How long it takes to break

Jungle Planks sits at hardness 2: 3 seconds per block with your fists, 0.35 with the correct netherite tool.

Iron takes 0.5 seconds against diamond's 0.4, so the upgrade worth making for this block is the one to iron.

No particular tool tier is required: any tool, or none at all, still yields the drop, so the table below is about speed rather than about whether you get anything.

Each Efficiency level adds level² + 1 to the tool's speed, so a level V tool clears this about 3.5 times faster than an unenchanted one.

Tool	No enchantment	Efficiency III	Efficiency V
Hand	3 s	3 s	3 s
Wooden	1.5 s	0.25 s	0.15 s
Stone	0.75 s	0.25 s	0.1 s
Iron	0.5 s	0.2 s	0.1 s
Diamond	0.4 s	0.2 s	0.1 s
Netherite	0.35 s	0.2 s	0.1 s
Golden	0.25 s	0.15 s	0.1 s

Properties

With 3 blast resistance Jungle Planks usually goes down to a nearby explosion. It is fully opaque and produces no light. 64 fit in a slot — a full stack. It is renewable, so one world can supply as much of it as you want. Flammable, at encouragement 5 and burn 20: build with it away from lava, and do not use it as a wall you care about. The block is tagged for axes, and only that class gets the speed bonus; everything else mines at bare-hand rate. As furnace fuel it burns for 15 seconds — one and a half smelting operations.

Transparent: No
Required tool: Any
Flammable: Yes (5/20)
Renewable: Yes
Fuel value: 15 s
