Materials Required to Make a Green Dye
You will need only two items to make a green dye, the first thing that you need is the cactus plant and the second one is the furnace block.
Finding a cactus
You can find a cactus naturally in the desert village biome and for that, you need to find a village inside a desert biome. After that, you need to start wandering around and try to find a cactus that is green in color and is not hard to find as displayed in the image below.
You can either get the cactus by directly breaking it with any tool or with your bare hands or you can also break the sand block below the cactus which will drop cactus on the ground.
Making a Furnace
The next item that you need is a furnace in which you need to place these wooden logs and a fuel source and in return, this will give you charcoal. To make a furnace if you do not already own one, you can place eight cobblestones in the same sequence on the crafting table.
Getting cobblestones is another mystery that requires at least a pickaxe as it can’t be mined using your bare hands like you did with chopping trees before.
Making a Wooden Pickaxe: So, let’s start making one of the basic pickaxes which is the wooden pickaxe for simplicity. Here you will need 3 wooden planks that you need to place in the first row and 2 sticks that you need to place in the bottom two slots as shown in the image. So 1 wooden log will give you 4 wooden planks and 2 wooden planks will give you 4 sticks that you can utilize to make this recipe.

Making a Green Dye
When you access the furnace, you will notice three slots from which two are on the same side whereas the third one is on the right side. On the top slot you need to place the cactus, and, on the bottom, you need to place the fuel source that will smelt the cactus and in return, you will get the green dye in the third slot.
