The Elder Scrolls IV: Shivering Isles Hints
Potion-Making Notes
1 of 3: In order to make potions out of Hearts of Order, you'll have to have an Alchemy skill of 100, or you'll have to use a second special ingredient that has a scripted effect on it (like felldew, poisoned apples, or greenmote).
2 of 3: Even if your Alchemy skill is 100, you should use poisoned apples with the Hearts of Order when you're making the potions so they'll each weigh only 0.5 pounds instead of a full pound. (Or use a poisoned apple for the first potion, then just use Hearts of Order, since the new potions will stack with the starting potion.)
3 of 3: Remember that you can keep going back to Fort Farragut every few days to get ten more poisoned apples from the barrel in Lucien Lachance's sanctuary room. (See Lachance's Dark Brotherhood quest info in the main Oblivion hint file.)
