I know you supposedly quit the thread, but in case you're reading, AttacKat is exactly right. Apples and plums work directly opposite each other. It even says so in that calculator you're using. Apples are (on average) +5 red, -5 blue & green. Plums are -5 red, +5 blue & green. Add those together and you get 0,0,0. No change.

If you get a recipe where you're using 2 opposing fruits in the same feed (apples & plums, pears & valfruit, berry & pineapple) then you need to subtract them from each other for the final recipe.

In the example you stated

Berry 7
Apple 7
Pear 9
Plum 2

you need to remove the apples & plums that cancel each other out, IE:

Berry 7
Apply 5
Pear 9

should give you the same result on the calculator.
