“Just the miracle of life in sticky, gooey, liquid form, baby. Heat that gunk up over a Campfire, and just watch it congeal into all kind of plants.”— Biological Research Station

- Can be created via the Biological Research Station located in the Sink. Each unit of Salient Green requires one unit of plant material.
- Two are carried by The Custodian.
- Three in the X-13 stealth testing lab.
Notes[edit]
Salient Green's value is considerably higher (50) than the typical value of plant items (6 or less apiece). Thus, if one has many undesired plants to sell, it is far more profitable to first convert the plant material to Salient Green.
Behind the Scenes[edit]
Salient Green's name is a reference to the 1973 film Soylent Green.
