what if you could recycle plants somehow to make nutrient compounds with a quantity based on the stats of the recycled plant
in other words, you could make a "potency nutrient compound" at some kind of efficiency rating that's like, 1u per 1000 total potency stat recycled
functionally it wouldn't actually be any better than saltpetre at increasing stats, but it could eliminate concerns about giving botanists infinite easy black powder while also letting them target specific genes at an expensive rate of exchange
