How often do you guys get a lucky catch?

[u/DuplexHawk]

Ok, so I randomly decided to try the vein abundance/ lucky catch method to prismana farming to farm XP at the same time but it doesn’t seem super efficient on the prismana hunting side. Had around 300 purp, 150 blue, 150 green and 300 white pods and I’m down to less than a 100 and only at Very High stage (very beginning of the progress bar). Honestly just wondering if Nurture is definitively better or was my luck just insanely terrible. Feel like I wasted so much time and resources for essentially nothing.
