Nether wart is a type of fungus in Minecraft, which is used to make Awkward potions. Without an Awkward potion, you can’t brew most of the useful potions in the game.

Even in the Nether dimension, the Nether wart only generates in the following locations: Nether Fortress and Piglin Remnant. Learn more about the Nether Wart in Minecraft using the linked guide.

Before creating a nether wart farm, it is important to prepare in advance. Make sure to choose the right location and materials before setting up.

Nether wart does not need light to grow, but the farm should be built in a lit and enclosed area to prevent creepers from damaging growth. Additionally, putting the farm in a place where it will be often loaded will help the farm to continuously grow.

Depending on the design of a nether wart farm, extra room may be required for the redstone. Make sure to know the size of the farm in advance so that the proper amount of space can be cleared in one go.

Before making a nether wart farm, it is necessary to have one soul sand per nether wart which can be grown. At least one nether wart is also needed to begin producing. It is recommended to have more than one, however, to decrease the initial amount of time spent waiting for it to grow.

The rest of the required materials depends on the design. The following are some common materials which may be required to build certain farms:

Because nether wart must be planted manually and farmer villagers don't plant nether wart, fully automatic designs for nether wart farms are not possible. However, the collection system can still be automated, making semi-automatic farms possible.
