How to get Sugar Canes in Survival Mode

You can add sugar canes to your inventory in Survival mode by finding sugar cane plants growing near water and gathering them. So, let's get started!

1. Find a Sugar Cane Plant

First, you need to find a sugar cane plant in your Minecraft world. Sugar cane plants can be found growing near water.

2. Break the Sugar Cane Plant

The game control to break the sugar canes from the sugar cane plants depends on the version of Minecraft:

• For Java Edition (PC/Mac), left click and hold on the plants.
• For Pocket Edition (PE), you tap and hold on the plants.
• For Xbox 360 and Xbox One, press and hold the RT button on the Xbox controller.
• For PS3 and PS4, press and hold the R2 button on the PS controller.
• For Wii U, press and hold the ZR button on the gamepad.
• For Nintendo Switch, press and hold the ZR button on the controller.
• For Windows 10 Edition, left click and hold on the plants.
• For Education Edition, left click and hold on the plants.

The sugar cane plant will break and smaller sugar canes will float on the ground.

3. Pick up the Sugar Canes

Make sure you pick up the sugar canes before they disappear.

Once you pick up the sugar canes, they will appear in your hotbar.

Sugar Canes are useful items and should be kept in your inventory to be used later.
