This Minecraft guide explains what Pitcher Pods do in Minecraft.

Minecraft players have the random opportunity to collect a Pitcher Pod if a Sniffer has been digging Dirt, Grass Block, Podzol, Coarse Dirt, Rooted Dirt, Moss Block, Mud, and Muddy Mangrove Roots.

However, once players have collected a Pitcher Pod, they may be unsure what to do with it.

A Pitcher Pod is the seed used to grow Pitcher Plants. Although, it’s worth noting that Pitcher Pods are actually more useful to players than the plant they grow into.

Let’s get into exactly what a Pitcher Pod does in Minecraft and what they can be used for.

What do Pitcher Pods do in Minecraft?

Pitcher Pods have three primary uses. They are:

  • Growing Pitcher Plants
  • Breeding chickens and giving chicks a 10% reduction in growth duration
  • Taming parrots

To grow a Pitcher Plant, a Pitcher Pod must be placed on farmland. There are four total phases of growth, with the final phase being a full-grown Pitcher Plant.

To collect the Pitcher Plant, simply break it and it will drop as an item.

Pitcher Plants only have one use. They can be crafted into 2 cyan dye.
