Medicinal Leek
Medicinal Leek is a versatile crop found in Cobblemon, holding significant value for both crafting and boosting Pokémon performance. Here's a detailed guide to understanding all aspects related to Medicinal Leeks.
Obtaining
Natural Generation
Medicinal Leeks naturally spawn in clusters of about four near the shores of freshwater biomes such as rivers and swamps. You can identify these useful plants in any environment tagged as freshwater by mods.
Drops
When you break a fully grown medicinal leek, it yields 2-3 leeks. If you use a tool with the Fortune enchantment, you might get up to five leeks from a fully matured plant. Non-fully grown plants will drop only one. As an added bonus, acquiring a medicinal leek for the first time triggers a delightful advancement named "There's a Leek in the Boat!"
Farming
Planting medicinal leeks atop water or waterlogged blocks will spur a growth process involving four stages. Environmental factors do not influence this growth rate, and using bone meal will boost growth by one stage instantly.
Usage
Crafting Ingredient
Medicinal Leeks can be employed to create items like Magenta Dye or cooked delicacies in the game.
Smelting Ingredient
You can use leeks as a fuel source in smelting, being transformed into Roasted Leeks in the process.
Brewing Ingredient
Combine medicinal leeks with water bottles to concoct medicinal brews, enhancing healing properties within the game world.
Food
Eating a medicinal leek restores a single hunger point and provides 0.2 saturation. Its consumption is rapid, like that of dried kelp, making it handy in dire hunger situations.
Composting
Composting medicinal leeks shows a 65% success rate in raising the compost level by one, making them efficient for those aiming for sustainability.
Related Items
Various consumables derive from medicinal leeks, enhancing their utility:
- Roasted Leek: Offers fast consumption with an increase of 3 hunger points and 0.3 saturation.
- Leek and Potato Stew: Although it eats slower than roasted, it significantly restores 8 hunger points and 0.6 saturation, with the bowl being returned post-consumption.
Gathering Medicinal Leeks not only aids players in diverse ways but also flavors gameplay strategy around crafting, cooking, and directing that boost to Pokémon critical hits.
