[edit] Crafting

Glistering Melons can be crafted with a Gold Nugget and a Melon Slice placed anywhere in a crafting grid. Glistering Melons are relatively easy potion ingredients to get, since a basic melon farm can produce lots of melon slices quickly and Gold Ingots can make nine nuggets apiece.
