Seeds are items used to grow crops in the Farming skill. Seeds are planted in corresponding farming patches around Gielinor (or, in the case of trees, planted in a Plant pot first).

Each plant, as it grows, has several times it can grant experience. All of them grant experience when planting the seed, many grant per-item experience when harvesting, and some types have a check-health stage which grants experience once per plant.

Most plants can be protected by a nearby farmer for a cost; allotments can also be protected by a growing flower. Herbs cannot be protected by a farmer, instead requiring herb protectors.

Plants have a number of growth ticks they go through between being planted and fully grown. These are displayed as a number of growth ticks of a specific length. See Farming#Growth cycles for details.

Allotments[edit | edit source]

Allotment seeds can be planted in one of the allotment patches located around Gielinor, requiring three seeds to plant in the patch. Allotment plants generally have multiple harvests from a patch with a variable number of harvests, but once depleted, the patch is completely empty. Allotment seeds are the only seeds that the amulet of bountiful harvest applies to.

Flowers[edit | edit source]

Flower seeds can be planted in flower patches, which are generally found alongside allotment patches. Flowers have one harvest and the patch is emptied afterwards. Flowers cannot be protected.

  2. ^ Yield is doubled by reaching the Practiced farmer rank at the Manor Farm.

Herbs[edit | edit source]

Herb seeds can be planted in herb patches, which are found with allotment patches along with several herb patches elsewhere. Herbs have a variable number of harvests and the patch is emptied when depleted. Herb patches can only be protected with the Pharm Ecology relic power or with a herb protector, with the exception of the Wilderness herb patch, which becomes immune to disease upon completion of the Wilderness hard achievements. A minimum of one seed is required per patch, but the Plant power upgrades from Sydekix's Shop of Balance allow planting multiple seeds at once for an increase in yield.

  1. ^ Per seed, if not the daily herb
  2. ^ Assume one seed is planted.

Hops[edit | edit source]

Hop seeds can be planted in hops patches. Hop plants have multiple harvests and the patch is emptied when depleted. Each patch requires four seeds to plant, unless planting jute seeds, which require only three seeds.

Bushes[edit | edit source]

Bushes can be planted in bush patches. Bush patches generally have a check-health stage when fully grown and then the berries can be harvested a specific number of times for harvest experience. Most bushes remains when empty of berries, which will grow back over time and can be harvested again.

Trees[edit | edit source]

Tree seeds are first planted in plant pots and watered, where they grow into saplings shortly after. Saplings are then planted in tree patches. When fully grown trees have a check-health stage. Trees can then be chopped down for the usual logs, and once depleted into a stump, they will eventually regrow (or instantly regrown with a hydra familiar) and can be chopped for logs again or removed from the patch to empty it and allow another tree to be planted.

Fruit trees[edit | edit source]

Fruit trees function similarly to trees - they must first be planted in a plant pot, grow into a sapling, and then planted in fruit tree patches. Like bushes, once fully grown they have a check-health stage, and can then the fruit can be harvested a specific number of times until empty. From there, the tree can be left to regrow the fruit and harvested again later or chopped down and cleared to empty the patch for another tree.

Cacti[edit | edit source]

Cactus seeds can be planted in cactus patches. They otherwise function the same as bushes - they have a check health stage and can be repeatedly harvested if the produce is left to regrow.

Mushrooms[edit | edit source]

Mushrooms can be planted in mushroom patches. They function much like herbs - once fully grown, they are harvested multiple times, emptying the patch once depleted. Mushrooms have a fixed number of produce when harvested, unlike herbs. Mushroom harvests are doubled by completing elite Morytania achievements.

Herblore Habitat[edit | edit source]

Plants in Herblore Habitat are similar to normal patches but can only be planted within the juju patches in the habitat. They otherwise function just like the non-juju patches. With the exception of the flower seeds, all Herblore Habitat seeds are untradeable, and all produce is untradeable.

The Arc[edit | edit source]

Berries of the Arc is an activity in the Arc where players find and breed berries of various types. Berry bushes can be grown from seed in the planters on Tuai Leit. Players can check the status of these seeds on the first page of the Arc Journal, under the heading "Planters".

Eating berries provides temporary +2 boosts in one skill, drains 1 Defence level, and heals 1 life point, which can be used as a stackable food source if combined with expensive spices, increasing their healing to 51 life points each. All berries can be sold at Terri's Merry Berry Bar, found in the gnome colony in south-western Tuai Leit, or at Sweet Goods on Cyclosis. Players can sell berry seeds to Ani's Seed Store by the Sea Shore, found in the gnome colony on Tuai Leit, or to Sinuman (food merchant) on Cyclosis for an extra chime on some seeds.

Berry Bushes[edit | edit source]

Players do not require 86 Farming to plant or forage berry bushes, only to obtain the rumberry and exuberry seeds initially from bushes. However, foraging berries without 86 Farming awards no Farming experience. Players may alternatively receive them from a foraging bakami, but catching one requires 90 Hunter.
