Elder secrets says that Aldryami can grow plants to do
almost anything, and specifically mentions plants that
produce spearheads. I thought I'd seen a reference to
plants deep in the Pavis Garden that grow copper leaves,
but I can't find it - it doesn't seem to be in Big Rubble.
That writeup does mention plants that grow jewels.
There have been real-world proposals to take advantage
of plants that concentrate metals from the earth, so I have
no problem believing Aldryami can do it.
I think the problem with Aldryami forges isn't the use of fire,
but that forges are tools of Maker rather than Grower.
