Weak growth elixir
Weak growth elixir is an alchemy result with one red and two green runes. Despite its name you cannot pour it on a garden bed: it is an ingredient for fertilizers made at the Formulation Bench, and that bench cannot be built in the demo. So in the demo it is only worth making for what the mix itself gives, 1 red and 2 green tech points and progress toward the Alchemist inspiration.
At the Laboratory I, a single Beeswax makes it. Two-ingredient mixes include Clay with Flour or an Onion, and Flax with a Berry.

- Studying it costs 5 Science and gives 10 green and 10 blue.
