Potash is a mineral that is used as a fertilizer for potassium (K) crops. It can be purchased or created from sylvite ore, which can be found inside of halite deposits.
Obtaining
Trading
Potash can be purchased from commodities traders at a price of 2.25 - 3.75* gears for 10 potash.
Cooking
Potash is made from sylvite ore, which is found in halite layers. Sylvite can be found as surface bits, or as ore blocks. When mined with a pickaxe made of copper or better, each block of sylvite ore produces 2.25 - 2.75* sylvite. The sylvite must then be ground to create powdered sylvite. Then, 2L of water must be cooked with 2 powdered sylvite to produce 2 potash. As with all non-food cooking pot recipes, this will leave the pot covered in residue and permanently unsuitable for preparing food.
Usage
Potash's only use as of version 1.20.12 is as fertilizer with a 60% K value. The first time potash is used as a fertilizer on a block of farmland, its maximum K fertility will be increased by 15%. As of 1.20.12, potash is the only item in the game with this property.[1] When this occurs, other nutrient levels are unaffected, but the farmland will visually change to the next highest quality farmland (Barren -> Low fertility -> Medium fertility -> High fertility -> Terra preta). For details, see Farming.
