Miracle growth elixir

A Miracle growth elixir is the top growth elixir, an alchemy result of 1 red and 5 green runes. Its use is the strongest farming fertilizer: at the Formulation Bench, 8 Peat and one elixir make a Farming Fertilizer III, which adds 5 Farming mastery to a garden bed. That recipe comes with Fertilizers IV (150 green, 30 blue) and needs Anatomy 4.

Five green runes cannot come from one ingredient, so it takes two at least: Coal or Beeswax with a Pumpkin or a Fragrance fits in the two-slot Laboratory I. The town Alchemist sells 10 a week at its third tier, at 15 silver.

Notes

  • The fertilizer’s name does not match its strength. The game calls it Farming Fertilizer III, the third of the three Farming Fertilizers you can make, but it adds 5, not 3.
  • The Vineyard Upgrade needs 6 of that fertilizer, so 6 elixirs.
  • A recipe with this name that uses other ingredients is listed in the game files but no workbench offers it. Alchemy is the only way to make it.
  • Studying one costs 20 Science and gives 50 green and 20 blue.
