Coarse Dirt

Coarse dirt is a variation of dirt on which grass blocks cannot spread.

Natural generation
Coarse dirt can be found as large patches in all Giant Tree Taiga variants, Wooded Badlands Plateau, Modified Wooded Badlands Plateau, Shattered Savanna and Shattered Savanna Plateau biomes.

Usage
Coarse dirt has the ability to grow saplings, sugar canes, mushrooms, bamboo, and sweet berries which can be planted directly under appropriate conditions.

Neither mycelium nor grass can spread onto coarse dirt.

Coarse dirt can be tilled to become dirt and tilled again to become farmland.

Grassless dirt
Originally, in Bedrock Edition, and Java Edition, the corresponding block, formerly known as "grassless dirt", was simply a dirt, with a data value of 1. It had most of the same properties as coarse dirt, except that it had the texture of regular dirt, it dropped a regular dirt block when broken, even with Silk Touch, it wasn't able to be crafted, and when it was tilled, it turned to farmland rather than regular dirt. This is history information.
