Sticky sun tincture ("easy"): BnBnPz = (Cp)Pz!BnBn
Add Cp + Pz, reduce from bottom. If Cp, dump, retry. If Pz, add 2 Bn. Converts 300 fertilizer at a time
More difficult sticky tincture (converts 500 fertilizer per): (Bn)Cp)!Bt!Rd Combine first two, reduce from bottom, add Bt, let combine, then reduce from bottom again. If Bt stays, add Rd, combine. Converts 500 fertilizer at a time.
Get the temp over 3500 to melt the glass, then let drop. Rods, jars, pipes, sheet glass = 1600 to 2400 temp. (add cc when drops below 1800)
