Luck does not help carrion growth, AFAK. While taking added growth does indeed add slightly to your carrion growth rate, it also kills pop faster and you pay points for it, so I would not recommend it. One thing that I forgot to mention that does help a a lot: high dominion. There is a massive difference in carrion growth rate between a dom 3 province and a dom 10 one.
Why should higher growth kill pop faster?
It's quite the contrary: higher growth makes pop last longer, as pop kill is dependant on dominion.
So with DOM10, you'll have no pop in no time ...
