Get Minecraft Make Dirt Grow Grass PNG. While it may not seem it, grass blocks can actually be a bit of a rare thing to find in your inventory in minecraft. 4 minecraft days later still no grass not even on you need to remember that grass doesn't grow it spreads.
If you plant them outdoors, they will grow during the day, but if you add additional light they will grow at night too. Grass grows ontop of dirt if it has sunlight falling on it and a grass block next to it. Any patch of dirt with no opaque block above it (so only air, leaves etc) will grow grass after a while.
I made this island three real life days ago, and not a speck of grass.
In my world, i'm building a tower on an island (for the dragon age fans, just like lake calenhad) but unfortunatley, my dirt wont grow any grass! The hand also works, but much slower. Grass will grow on dirt if it is exposed to sunlight or bright light after some time. Grass, poppies and dandelions will be spawned on top of random empty grass blocks.
