Thanx! No. The only way to get dirt once you've run out of the starting biome supply, without resorting to cooking materials in magma, is from polluted dirt that have gassed off completely, ie. lost half it's initial mass as PO2. Polluted dirt is generated by rot piles, outhouses, and water sieves.

Cheers. It's 0.1% IIRC or 1g per 1kg boiled so not really interesting compared to the other solutions mentioned above but it's a possibility at least.

By the time you get far enough in the game you're running out of dirt, you're probably going to want to start thinking about boiling polluted water anyway, so not an awful idea.
