Bonemeal Fertilizer — Detailed Guide
Bonemeal Fertilizer and Primitive Plus
Bonemeal Fertilizer is a fertilizer that our database holds for ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. The ARK Wiki files it under the Primitive Plus DLC of ASE, which it also writes as Primitive+. For that ASE version, the wiki records this in-game description: "Bone meal is a mixture of finely and coarsely ground animal bones and slaughter-house waste products. It is mainly used as an organic fertilizer for plants."
How it compares with regular Fertilizer
For the ASE version, the wiki says it does the same job as normal 
Fertilizer while costing much less, and it gives crop plots more units than the regular kind.
Crafting it
The engram unlocks at level 28 for 10 engram points. For ASE, the wiki names the Handmill and the Alchemy Table as the stations that make it and gives a craft time of 5 seconds. One craft yields a single fertilizer, gives 2 XP and uses:
- 5
Hide - 3
Spoiled Meat - 3
Charcoal - 1
Keratin
Filling a Handmill for bulk
For the most efficient run in ASE, the wiki suggests loading a Handmill with these amounts:
- Spoiled Meat: 9 stacks
- Charcoal: 9 stacks
- Hide: 7.5 stacks
- Keratin: 3 stacks
That takes up 29 of the 30 slots and makes 300 Bonemeal Fertilizer. Each fertilizer weighs 0.1, and the stack size is 1.
