How to mine Cherry Fence

Cherry Fence can be broken with any tool, or even by hand.

Break times (unenchanted, no Haste or Mining Fatigue):

• With the correct tool: approximately 3 seconds
• By hand (no tool): approximately 10 seconds

Using an Efficiency-enchanted tool, Haste beacons, or a Diamond/Netherite tier drastically reduces these times. Water and being airborne slow mining by 5×.
