How Do You Unlock and Craft Fertilised Farm Soil in Enshrouded?
To craft Fertilised Farm Soil in Enshrouded, players must first rescue the Farmer, Emily Fray, and collect Sand at least once to unlock the recipe. Production requires 2 Fossilized Bone Dust, 3 Nitrate, 10 Sand, and 10 regular Farm Soil per batch, according to Prima Games reporting.
What Are the Exact Recipe Requirements and Materials Needed?
Crafting a single batch yields 10 units of Fertilised Farm Soil at the Farmer crafting station. Each cycle consumes specific alchemical and gathered components that players must farm across different biomes in the game world.
- Fossilized Bone Dust: 2 units required per batch, processed from Fossilized Bone at a Mill or Grinding Stones.
- Nitrate: 3 units required per batch, crafted at the Laboratory using 5 Shroud Sand, 1 Wood Acid, 1 Salt, and 5 Sand.
- Sand: 10 units required per batch, mined with a pickaxe from sandy regions. Regular Sand, Fine Sand, Veilwater Basin Sand, and Cinder’s Cradle Sand all function interchangeably.
- Farm Soil: 10 units required per batch, which can be crafted at the Farmer using 7 Springlands Dirt and 3 Bonemeal, or looted directly from early-game settlements such as Harvest Homestead.
Where Can You Find Emily Fray and Unlock the Recipe?
The recipe unlocks automatically after players fulfill two criteria: collecting Sand for the first time and rescuing the Farmer, Emily Fray. Prima Games reported that players can locate her by following the Growing Stronger Together quest line. Alternatively, survivors can fast travel to the Springlands Ancient Spire and glide north toward the Ancient Vault. Once rescued, the Farmer can be summoned to a base provided she has a sheltered bed for her crafting services.
