About this converter

Gatherer's Garden prices run 20 to 150 ADAM, and later gardens discount early plasmids. Armored Shell and EVE Link open at 20, Enrage, Security Bullseye and Target Dummy at 60, Health and EVE Upgrades at 80, Electro Bolt 3 at 90, Incinerate 1 at 100 and Incinerate 3 from 120 minimum to 150 first list. That makes Incinerate 3 seven and a half Armored Shells. Prices fall as Rapture depths rise, so first list and minimum split. Every figure here is the Garden price from the wiki location tables.

How to use it

Pick two plasmids and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 Incinerate 3 against Armored Shells to see the seven and a half to one fire tax.

Some plasmids come free in story spots, for example Electro Bolt 1 in Welcome and Telekinesis in Medical, and those zero prices stay out. Hypnotize Big Daddy comes only from Tenenbaum rescues with no price and stays out. Challenge room prices match late gardens and stay noted. Sonic Boom at 1 ADAM is the cheapest plasmid and stays noted.
