How to unlock the Golden pumpkin achievement in Graveyard Keeper - Definitive Guide
Equipment needed= hand mixer, alchemy work bench 2, distillation cube 1, church workbench
Recipe= 2 flavor enhancers and 10 peat.
Flavor enhancer= ash + toxic solution + life extract in that order.
Ash= body cremation
Toxic solution= red mushroom or orange jelly
Life extract= maggot,yellow flower or heart
Peat= crop waste at compost in garden
You must study all ingredients first before mixing.
Note: fertilizer 2 will not turn a bronze seed into gold it will make it silver.
You can't buy a gold-star Pumpkin seed from the Farmer, so the only way to get it is:
1) Buy 4 silver-star Pumpkin seeds.
2) Use a Quality fertilizer II on an empty garden bed (increases the chance of getting a gold-star seed).
3) Plant 4 silver-star Pumpkin seeds.
4) Harvest the crop.
5) Repeat 1-4 until you get enough gold-star seeds.
Of course, planting the seeds on several gardens beds at once speeds up the process.
You can buy the pumpkin seeds from the Farmer, but you'll need to get him to open up his second tier of items to you by buying or selling goods to him. You can either buy the bronze or silver quality ones. In order to get higher quality seeds, you’ll need to make some fertilizer. Fertilizer can be made at the Church Workbench.
You can either make Quality Fertilizer I or Quality Fertilizer II. You need Peat and a Growth Enhancer for the lower quality, while you need Peat and Flavor Enhancer for the best one. Peat can be obtained by taking crop waste and using it on the compost heap on your farming land, while the enhancers are made at the alchemy bench.
Put down the fertilizer before you put the seeds in the ground. When you harvest your crops, you get some seeds in return. When you use fertilizer, you get more seeds back and also will get seeds of higher quality. The tier 1 fertilizer will give you silver seeds, while the tier 2 fertilizer will give you some gold quality seeds. Use the fertilizer until you get gold pumpkin seeds and then plant them and harvest the crop when grown.
