Green Bed
Green Bed skips the night, sets a respawn point (where you reappear after dying), and crafts from three green wool plus three planks.
Description
Using Green Bed works only in the Overworld: in the Nether and the End, Green Bed explodes with power 5 — above TNT's 4 — and sets fire to surrounding blocks. Sleeping becomes possible at night or during a thunderstorm, lasts 101 game ticks (5.05 seconds), and moves the world to sunrise while rainy weather resets. Clicking Green Bed during the daytime still sets the respawn point without sleeping, and several players can bind one Green Bed. Sleeping does not accelerate crop growth or furnace smelting. Green Bed has hardness 0.2 and blast resistance 0.2, and no tool speeds up breaking.

Guide
How to craft and use a Green Bed in Minecraft
-
1
Collect the materials
Gather three green wool and three planks. The planks can mix wood species, but all three wool blocks must be green.
-
2
Open a 3x3 crafting grid
Place the three green wool across the top row of the grid and the three planks across the bottom row. The output is one Green Bed.
-
3
Place the Green Bed on two floor blocks
Set the crafted Green Bed on two free floor blocks. The head and the foot of Green Bed each occupy one block.
-
4
Set the respawn point
Use Green Bed once — the daytime counts too — to set the respawn point. Multiple players can bind the same Green Bed.
-
5
Sleep to skip the night
Use Green Bed at night or during a thunderstorm. Sleep lasts 5.05 seconds, and the world wakes at sunrise.
Green Bed explodes there with power 5 — stronger than TNT — and sets fire to nearby blocks.

Frequently asked questions
How do you craft a Green Bed in Minecraft?
Place three green wool across the top row of a crafting grid and three planks across the bottom row. The wool color must match across all three slots, while the planks can mix wood species.
Can you turn an existing bed green?
Yes, combining a bed of any color with green dye in a crafting grid produces a Green Bed.
Why does a bed explode in the Nether?
Beds only function in the Overworld. Using Green Bed in the Nether or the End triggers an explosion of power 5 — stronger than TNT (4) — and sets fire to surrounding blocks.
Does clicking a bed during the day set the spawn point?
Yes, using Green Bed in daytime sets the respawn point without starting sleep. Multiple players can bind the same Green Bed.
Where does Green Bed generate naturally?
Desert village houses generate cyan, green, and lime beds. Java Edition trial chamber intersection rooms can also contain beds of any color.
Does sleeping speed up crops or smelting?
No. Sleeping changes the time of day to sunrise and does not accelerate crop growth, furnace smelting, or other time-based processes.
