An interactive room grid for potting tables, T-shaped potion stations, Hopping Pots, Chopping Stations, Composters and Material Refiners.
Quick Answer
For unmodded Hogwarts Legacy, Potting Tables and Potion Stations each cap at 7, while Hopping Pots, Chopping Stations, Dung Composters and Material Refiners generally cap at 3 each. A layout with 5 two-large-pot tables + 2 three-medium-pot tables = 16 growing plants fits the seven-table allowance.

Why the mechanic works
The grid is a planning abstraction: in the real Room of Requirement, objects have different footprints and must fit the physical available space. Separate budget caps control station counts. Use this planner to check station limits, not to claim a one-cell machine matches in-game floor dimensions.Easy step-by-step guide
- Purchase needed recipes from Tomes and Scrolls in Hogsmeade.
- Reserve the rear wall for 5 two-large-pot tables and 2 three-medium-pot tables.
- Set several T-shaped Potion Stations in one line so you can collect potions in a single run.
- Place Hopping Pots and Chopping Stations near your route rather than across the room.
- Use Dung Composters and Material Refiners off to the side, with room for collection.
- Leave walking space and keep an eye on your Moonstone budget.
Mistakes & extra tips
- Seven potting tables is a total across different table types, not seven of each.
- Five tables × two large pots = 10 plants; two tables × three medium pots = 6 plants; total = 16 plants.
- The baseline Dung Composter and Material Refiner caps are three each, not four composters and one refiner.
