Trivia

• Dirt is one of the four basic blocks with a rarity of 1 that can be found in normal worlds, along with Rock, Cave Background, and Lava.
• In December, the green layer of Dirt turns white, as if snow has covered the grass. This in only a visual effect; the item still has the same properties as usual. The sprite is reverted back once December is over.
• Sand, Martian Soil, Deep Sand, Monochromatic Dirt, and Digital Dirt have sprites which are based on the Dirt's Sprite.
• Breaking Dirt and harvesting Dirt Trees have a small chance to drop a Wiggly Worm.
• Dirt can only be found in newly created worlds, Bountiful Blasted Worlds, or from Harvest Moon-blasted worlds. Other blasted worlds don't spawn any when they are created.
• A Digger's Spade will allow the player to break Dirt and Cave Background in one hit.
• The sprite of the Water Bucket is a blue recolor of the Dirt, except without the top part.
• In December 2012, a unique gray dirt sprite was used instead of the usual white one. It was replaced with the current one in 2013.
