I have tried to collect blue & red mushrooms by clicking, click - dragging to inventory open & closed to no avail. Is there a trick to it or what? Anyone care to have a go at this problem?

To make a potion, you need alchemy skill of at least 2. Walk up to a patch
of mushrooms or herbs. Open your inventory up. Drag an empty flask over the
herb/mushroom. ( The "X" will disappear when the flask is over the right spot)
Herbs:
Purple = Healing
White = Stamina
Blue = Magic
Mushrooms:
Red = Healing
Blue = Magic
White = Poison
Orange = Stamina
Flasks:
Small Flask = Minor Potion = Alchemy skill: 2
Flask = Potion = Alchemy skill: 3
Large Flask = Super Potion = Alchemy skill: 4
Also eat to raise health: meat, bread, cheese etc Open inventory and click on the food item, you can do this till you're full which can be before your health is fully restored.

Thanks Stuff, you're a flamin' marvel!
You're welcome, I had the same problem when I started the game, thanks to others in this forum I learned the process, just passing it on. . . . =^ )
Bump to group basic info
Just adding support for a good post. I maxed out my alchemy and never worked out how to do this! Shame I've moved onto Beyond Divinity now...

What does it take to make invisibility potions?

sblack162: What does it take to make invisibility potions?

I don't know how to make shadow potions directly form herbs but you can drop a "Magic" potion on a "Stamina" potion to make "Shadow" potions. Shadow potions make you invisible. Edit: As long as you don't left click, Warriors can do damage with their right click special move without becoming visible.
You can also make "Restoration" by dropping a "Heal" potion on a "Magic" potion, an "Elixers" potion by dropping a "Stamina" on a "Restoration" potion and a "Strength" potion by dropping a "Stamina" potion on a "Health" potion.
Dropping multiple potions on the same amount or greater of the other will create the number of potions equal to the smallest quantity you drop. i.e. dropping 10 "Magic" potions on 20 "Stamina" potions would give you 10 "Shadow" potions with 10 remaining "Stamina" potions.
So . . . you can make the other potions but you need to have or make the base potions first . . . =)
If anyone knows a mix of herbs to make shadow potions please post the ingredients.

You're welcome . . .=)

I should have mentioned that when dropping the potions on each other in your inventory, the potions must be of the same size.bumpbump
