Melon



The Melon is a Vanilla Minecraft crop which is a block and an item. When eaten it restores two hunger points (1 Shank). Melons grow in Jungle Biomes which when broken and placed in a crafting grid will provide seeds. Melon Seeds can be found in Abandoned Mineshafts and Strongholds and can be purchased through the Market.

1.8 or newer - Melons are NOT found in Gardens.

1.7 or older - Melons were found in Tropical Gardens.

Farming
When a Melon seed is placed, it becomes a melon vine block. You do not harvest the melon vine. Once the melon vine is full grown, every 1-30 minutes (real time), a melon block will spawn next to the vine. Breaking the melon block will give the melon item. Silk Touch is needed to pick up the whole melon block.
