Chapter 126: The flow of magic power.

It turns out that Leonard was overly worried.

These pumpkins are supplied to the Hogwarts kitchen. How could there be such a large but inedible pumpkin?

In other words, what Harry said was that the potion that made these pumpkins swell did not make the pumpkins grow to such a large size by catalyzing growth, but amplified them proportionally when the plants were growing normally.

This kind of enlargement potion is indeed the kind Leonard needs.

”Mr. Hagrid.”

Leonard came back after inspecting the pumpkins.

”Can I ask you a few questions?”

”It’s okay, just ask.”

Hagrid said generously.

”Harry told me that these pumpkins were enlarged with a potion. When was that potion used?”

Leonard asked

”Of course, it is used when the pumpkin is about to mature. Only in this way can the pumpkin grow. Otherwise, the pumpkin vine will grow and the size of the pumpkin itself will not change. Hagrid said.

In other words, this potion is not added during the growth process, but after the plant matures. It not only affects the fruit, but also affects the plant itself.

”What about nutrition? Pumpkins must need a lot of fertilizer to grow so big, right?”

”Yes, I specifically asked Professor Sprout for a lot of fertilizer. This is a Halloween pumpkin, so there can be no accidents. Hagrid said seriously

”Why not sprinkle more potion? Since the expansion potion can make pumpkins grow, wouldn’t a huge pumpkin be enough?”

”That’s not possible. The flesh of the pumpkin grown this way has a medicinal smell, and eating too much will make your head bigger.”

Hagrid, who has had various experiences, replied without any hesitation.

”Is there still any medicine left? Are enlargement potions also effective on humans?”

”Effective but difficult to control. I remember someone tried to turn himself into a giant, but only his limbs became larger and his body was almost torn apart.”

”That sounds serious, Hagrid, where did you get your enlargement potion from? What is the dosage? how often to use”】?”

”Professor Sprout gave it, two drops at a time, for three consecutive days.”…

Hagrid and Leonard were talking to each other about enlargement potions and pumpkin planting. Most of the time, Leonard was asking and Hagrid was answering.

Leonard mixed his concerns about the effects of plants and enlargement potions with other questions, making it impossible to guess what he wanted to do from his questions.

Harry and Neville were very interested in some interesting questions at the beginning, but gradually became unable to understand them as the questions became more and more professional, and then became expressionless.

A bit boring

”Harry, has Leonard always been like this? Neville asked in disbelief.

”He has so many problems”

”Yes, he is very easy to learn.”

Harry said with a yawn.

”Then why didn’t he go to Ravenclaw? He looked nothing like a Hufflepuff now. Neville said quietly

”It’s not the same at all. Maybe he wants to use the enlarging potion to make the food bigger and more durable?”

Harry guessed

”It seems to make sense.”

Neville nodded and labeled Leonard a foodie. It’s better for them Gryffindors. Although they are a little reckless, they won’t study potions and magic just to eat…….

Soon, Leonard had exhausted all the knowledge in Hagrid’s belly, and he also successfully learned the various effects of the enlargement potion and the precautions for its use.

Then Leonard naturally abandoned Harry an

d Neville and found Professor Sprout

”oh? Are you interested in those big pumpkins?”

When Leonard found Professor Sprout, she was inspecting the mandrakes in the greenhouse.

In addition to being used as teaching tools for students to take care of magical plants, these expensive potion materials will also be used to make magic plants when mature. Teaching tools for medicinal materials.

In order to ensure that each student has enough plants to use, Professor Sprout must carefully care for these magical plants.

”No, I am very interested in that magic potion.”

Leonard said

”I have a question, Professor Sprout”

”Say, kid, what’s your problem?”

Professor Sprout said in a very cheerful tone.

”I’m thinking the enlargement potion can make pumpkins bigger and supply enough pumpkins for the school, so why not use it on magical plants? Leonard asked”

”Wouldn’t this effectively reduce costs?”

”Of course not, child, the enlarging potion cannot affect the magic power. The most important thing about a magical plant material is not its nutrients, but its special magic power.”

Professor Sprout patiently explained

”This is why Muggles can’t brew potions. Although they can piece it together according to the formula, they can’t channel the magic power of the potion materials.”

Is it the magic in the material?”······

Leonard recalled what he had seen while strengthening the plants that could be used as potion materials. There was no special manifestation. His strengthening seemed to be a very comprehensive strengthening. No matter which branch, the strengthening of magic power seemed to be indispensable.

”ISo potions actually sort out the messy magic power into the direction we want? Like using magic?”

Leonard drew inferences from one example.

”Are we actually assisting the flow of magic by stirring the cauldron and adding materials at the right time, just like waving a wand and chanting a spell?”

”Wonderful answer.”

Professor Sprout praised

”You are absolutely right. This is magic potion. In fact, the same is true for alchemy. Any magic is ultimately the flow of magic.”

”In fact, this is all the inspiration given to me by professors. Both you and Professor Flitwick have given me a lot of help.”

Leonard said modestly

”The knowledge we teach our students is the same, but few can see through the essence of magic.”

Professor Sprout smiled.

”But regarding potions, it would be more appropriate for you to ask Professor Snape.”

”The same goes for you. I think your knowledge of potions is even better than Professor Snape’s.”

Leonard said.

Professor Sprout is also very good at brewing potions, but she prefers taking care of plants than facing the crucible. Working alone does not mean that her potion ability is inferior.

”Oh, don’t say that, everyone has something they are good at, and Professor Snape is very good at potions and magic.”

Professor Sprout complained to Snape.

”Maybe, but it would be better if he treated the students equally, then I would be happy to ask him questions.”

Leonard shrugged.

”Well······”

Professor Sprout was speechless.

After all, Snape was the culprit who deducted points from Hufflepuff House. She didn’t believe that Leonard, who was studious, could do anything bad, but Snape kept using Leonard as an excuse to deduct points.

This was the target, but the kind-hearted Professor Sprout did not want to have a conflict with this young professor, otherwise he would definitely ask Dumbledore for comment..
