Farming is a skill in which players plant seeds and harvest crops. The crops grown range from vegetables, herbs and hops, to wood-bearing trees, cacti, and mushrooms. The harvested items have a wide variety of uses, and are popular for training Herblore and Cooking.

Useful things and info

  • No farming patches will ever become diseased or die on Zeah
  • Everything in Zeah takes half the time to grow as it does on OSRS
    • Allotments vary from 20 minutes to 40 minutes
    • All flowers are 10 minutes
    • All herbs are 40 minutes
    • Most bushes are around 80 minutes for growth time, they also regrow the berries, which can be picked again every 40 minutes
    • All fruit trees are 8 hours
    • Mushrooms are 2 hours
    • Tree growth times are;
      • Oak: 1 hour and 40 minutes
      • Willow: 2 hours
      • Maple: 2 hours and 40 minutes
      • Yew: 3 hours and 20 minutes
      • Magic: 4 hours
  • The Magic Secateurs can be purchased from the Vote Shop (located at the Kourend House via ;;shops)
  • Composting patches has no effect on yields or minimum yields on Zeah
  • All farming patches can be accessed easily via the Nexus, they have been ordered so that similar patches are next to each other in the list
  • The Botanist silver relic should be purchased and activated before you start doing a lot of herb runs, as this will automatically clean the herbs
  • The Weedwhacker silver relic is less useful, but prevents weeds from ever growing in your farming patches (patches must still be weeded the first time)

Obtaining Seeds

  • Perry in the Hosidius House sells starter seeds, as does the Master farmer north of the Taverley Lodestone
  • Master Farmers (located in Draynor Village) will be the best place to get herb seeds.
    • The Master Farmer has a loot table of 27 seeds, all of which are equal weight to steal
    • This means you will not need to empty your inventory of trash seeds, and can just pickpocket until your mouse dies
  • Tree seeds can be obtained most commonly from birdhouse runs, and then searching the nests
    • The Giant Mole can also be killed for mole claws and hides, and then given to Wyson in Falador Park for bird's nests
    • The Brimstone chest also rewards tree and fruit tree seeds uncommonly

Farm Run

  • A typical farm run for normal players will be an herb run and a fruit and tree run combo
    • It is easy to get into the rhythm of doing an herb run after every (or every other) slayer task, as this will get you many of the herbs you'll need for herblore training
    • As trees takes considerably longer to grow, it's recommended to do a tree and fruit tree run soon after you login the first time of the day, and then another later in the day
