A Big Root is a crop that can be found growing from the ceilings of caves near the surface. It also functions as a held item that increases the HP recovered from the holder's draining moves by 30%.

An Energy Root is a crop that sometimes grows in place of a Big Root. It can be used to heal a Pokémon at the cost of friendship.

Obtaining

Roots in the wild.

Breaking either type of root will always yield a single Big Root or a single Energy Root.

Both types of root can be instantly mined with any tool.

Obtaining a Big Root triggers the advancement The Root of Basic Healing.

Farming

When planted below any earthen block at low light levels, Big Roots have a chance to spread to the bottom side of adjacent earthen blocks. These new roots can be harvested, and a newly spawned root has a 1/4th chance to be an Energy Root.

When bone meal is used on a root, it will force a root to propagate onto an adjacent block.

By default, the earthen blocks that can support roots are the following:

Dirt	Grass Block	Podzol
Coarse Dirt	Mycelium	Rooted Dirt
Moss Block	Mud	Muddy Mangrove Roots
Stone	Infested Stone	Andesite
Diorite	Granite	Deepslate
Infested Deepslate	Tuff	Cobblestone
Mossy Cobblestone	Infested Cobblestone	Cobbled Deepslate

Natural Generation

Big Roots generate in small clusters hanging from cave ceilings in all biomes above the Deepslate layer, most commonly at Y=62.

25% of generated roots will instead be Energy Roots.
