Level 2 of Botanical Identification allows production of three different solvents at a Toxin Kitchen. These solvents are produced similarly to Nut's Essence, and allow research of DNA sequences.
Everything that can currently be crossbred can be tested with these Solvents. Flax seeds, Roses of Ra, Sea Bulbs and Vine Cuts has been researched.
Stock your toxin kitchen with charcoal, cactus sap, cabbage juice, water in jugs, and the appropriate mushroom for the solvent variant desired.
You need 3 water in jugs to start the recipe. Start a batch by selecting the desired solvent from the menu. This starts a con timer, which is quite long (>500s). Con food is cheap an recommended :)
The kitchen needs a temperature between 360 and 400 degrees and the acidity needs to be between 3.0 and 3.4 (Currently the message box displays 300 and 340). Make sure you keep the volume of the mixture above 0 by adding water. If the volume drops to 0, the recipe is ruined. The higher the temperature, the faster the volume drops.
Add a mushroom
This way works well for me: Add 6-7 water. Adjust the acidity to be within the range, quickly heat with cc to the correct temp and hit the mushroom buttom. Often, you'll get it in the first go! - Cappu
Allow the acidity to drop to between 1.2 and 1.5. (Message box displays 120 to 150)
Add a mushroom.
Heat the mixture to 650 to 800 degrees.
Add a mushroom.
Wait for the precipitate to reach 1.00 and take the Revelation Solvent. If the mixture won't precipitate, raise the temperature.
Bands appear in the following colors:
Current research data is listed at Solvent Findings.
Current research conclusions: Flax?, SeaLily, [Rose of Ra]?, Grape Vines.
