Updated 2026-10-06 · Searched as “graveyard keeper 2 rich growth elixir”

Short answer

Rich Growth Elixir needs ingredients whose runes add up to exactly 1 red and 3 green. It unlocks with Fertilizers III (60 green, 15 blue). Easy mixes include Berry + Beeswax, Leaf + Beeswax or Coal + Berry. Mix it with 4 Peat at the Formulation Bench for Farming Fertilizer II (+3 Farming on a bed) or Headstart Fertilizer II.

Vegetable plots, outdoor workstations and a red-roofed home surround the keeper's garden.

The rune total

Like every alchemy result, the elixir asks for an exact total: 1 red rune, 3 green runes and no blue.

Weak Growth Elixir is 1 red + 2 green, and Miracle Growth Elixir is 1 red + 5 green, so the three are easy to confuse.

Unlock: Fertilizers III

Fertilizers III costs 60 green and 15 blue tech points and needs Fertilizers II (30 green, 10 blue).

It unlocks the elixir formula, Headstart Fertilizer II, Farming Fertilizer II and the Compost Pile upgrade.

The Building tab shows connected wood and stone technology unlocks in the game's tech tree.

The tech tree from the official media kit. Fertilizers III is researched like any other technology; this is not the Farming tab.

Easy two-ingredient mixes

Beeswax is 1 red + 2 green, and Berry or Leaf is 1 green, so Berry + Beeswax or Leaf + Beeswax hits the total.

Coal is also 1 red + 2 green, so Coal + Berry and Coal + Leaf work too.

Rich vs Miracle Growth Elixir

Searching for "miracle growth elixir"? It is a different brew: 1 red + 5 green, unlocked later by Fertilizers IV, and it makes Farming Fertilizer III (+5 Farming).

Rich Growth Elixir (1 red + 3 green) is the one Fertilizers III unlocks. Our Miracle Growth Elixir page has its mixes.
