Description

Pale Oak Planks are the pale grayish-white wooden planks made from pale oak wood, the tree added with the Pale Garden biome in Minecraft 1.21.4. Place one pale oak log, wood block, or stripped variant in a crafting grid to get four planks at once, so a single log goes a long way. Planks are the core building material for the whole pale oak set: stairs, slabs, doors, trapdoors, fences, fence gates, buttons, pressure plates, signs, and boats all start from them. They double as a decorative block with a bright, washed-out grain that suits modern and snowy builds. Pale oak planks also work as furnace fuel, smelting roughly 1.5 items each, and they are flammable, so keep them away from lava and fire. They work in both Java 1.21.4 and Bedrock Edition.
