Farming Guide

Farming converts seeds into crops, herbs, trees, XP, and useful supplies over real time. Planting starts a timer; return after the displayed grow time to harvest.

A farming cycle

1. Obtain a seed from its listed source.
2. Choose an unlocked compatible plot or tree patch.
3. Plant the seed and note its grow time.
4. Harvest when ready, then immediately replant if supplies allow.

Plots and patches unlock through progression. Seed requirements, grow times, yields, and sources vary, so use the current Farming reference rather than memorizing old values.

• Grow herbs around your potion needs and food crops around Cooking or combat needs.
• Keep a reserve of scarce seeds until you can use their output efficiently.
• Farming timers run independently of your normal action.
• Check every patch before a long offline period and again when you return.
• Ironmen should plan ahead because Farming supports Herblore and food supply chains.
