I am no modder but I think PTF is some sort of new script that makes mods more compatible with one another. E.g. two mods make modifications to the same file that edits merchant listings -> both mods will work but if there are things that they both change, the one that loads last will have the effect.
Like dahakalt said, PTF mods only edit exactly what they intend and not like my mod the entire item_alchemy.xml table. I would like to make mine PTF, sadly I don't know how to do that. But unless you have a mod that edits the item_alchemy table you should be fine.
I've made mods for the first game, so it's probably similar. You basically have a file that only includes the changes you made to the xml files. All the lines of code that you don't change are not included in the file. Seems like this guy, has made a similar mod as yours but has made it in PTF format. Although they made some additional changes about the potion, making it further than the vanilla game.
I'd suggest looking at their file and seeing how they format it. I think your mods are different enough, that both mods have a use for different types of people! Cheers!
