Farming Fertilizer II
Farming Fertilizer II raises a garden bed’s growing skill by 3. 4 Peat and a Rich growth elixir make one, with Anatomy 3, after Fertilizers III (60 green, 15 blue). You make it at the Formulation Bench, which uses Anatomy mastery, not Farming; the Compost Chemist perk doubles each batch.
Its bigger use is as a building material: Garden Upgrade II takes 9, along with 8 Iron Details and 4 Oiled Beams, and raises the skill of every garden bed to 8 for good (see Farming).

Notes
- Nine of them for the upgrade is 36 Peat and 9 elixirs, and the upgrade gives every bed +4 over Garden Upgrade I, while one fertilizer gives one bed +3.
- It stays on the bed. A harvest does not use it up; it only goes when you put a different fertilizer in its slot. Unconfirmed: this follows from the game’s code and has not been checked in play.
- Studying one costs 4 Science and gives 60 green and 15 blue.
