- ๐ช Planet + ๐ช๏ธ Sandstorm = ๐ช MarsOne quick craft for Mars: drag Planet onto Sandstorm and keep the result for the chain.
- ๐ Earth + ๐ง Water = ๐ฑ PlantPlant is only needed as an ingredient โ make it once, don't farm extra copies.
- ๐ช Mars + ๐ฑ Plant = ๐ฅ PotatoFinal craft: combine Mars and Plant to make Potato. That's the whole path โ 6 crafts total.

Why this is the cheapest path to Potato
