Vegetable Garden

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Vegetable Garden is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 1 intermediate — Growth Formula Kappa ×3 — which resolves to 7 distinct raw materials totalling 29 units, plus 77 crystals.

That bill outweighs 10,170 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,354 of the 1,591 Alchemist ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 56 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 21 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 49 Water Crystal and 28 Lightning Crystal.

Every step is Alchemist work, from a Lv 76 intermediate up to the Lv 78 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

4 of the 7 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 3 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Growth Formula Kappa has the widest use: 40 recipes call for it, spanning four of the eight crafting classes.
