when you have to get 64 rot and wait 20 in game days just for 1 block of terra preta i feel like it's fair to want to get more out of it. how expensive it is entirely depends on how much saltpeter/bony soil you need, also unless someone is immediately trying to get terra preta at the start of the game they probably either have some saltpeter or know where some is, and yes saltpeter is used for other things but the point of this is the choice between looking for high fertility soil and crafting it, so if saltpeter is only used for fertilizing and making better soil then that choice would be boring.

the point of this is to give players a choice between looking for high fertility soil and crafting it, also if the recipe doesn't use anything you need for terra preta then crafting it wouldn't reduce how much terra preta you can make

even if saltpeter isn't the hardest thing to find, with a ratio of 16 per soil you would still need 1024 for a stack.

the reason i'm suggesting another way of getting high fertility soil is for the cheaper terra preta recipe and because i've been having bad luck finding any. the reason i suggesting a crafting recipe of bony soil and saltpeter is because both are easier to find and neither are used for making terra preta.

i think it be nice if High fertility soil had a crafting recipe, maybe bony soil and saltpeter
