I currently have 51 farming, what are some good things to plant in the allotments, herbs, fruit and regular tree patches? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance

If you're going to do some hardcore farming, a setup like this;

 

 

 

Watermelons

 

Marigolds

 

Ranarrs / Kwuarms(?)

 

Maple trees

 

Pineapples

 

 

 

This is kinda expensive, D Jay would probably post here soon.

 

Herbs and marigolds cover the stuff though :P

yup.. whats up there is kinda expensive. really depends on how much you wanna spend on it.

 

 

 

>cheaper but slower version<

 

cabbage

 

marigolds

 

irit leaf (kwuarm once u get 56) - sell the herbs

 

jangerberries - just pick them if u dont have enough seeds

 

oak trees

 

pineapples - just pick the fruits

Well if you are "power" training farming, forget all about allotments. They fill up your inventory to much and make trips longer than needed. As well as giving back to little exp to make the extra banking worth while..

 

 

 

Your herb plots should be:

 

 

Toadflax

 

Ranarr

 

Snapdragon

 

 

Any of those 3 will give you a good return (I personally like toadflaxes, other people are infatuated with snaps) I would say go with toadflaxes though. Then snaps once you get a bigger pile of cash.

 

 

 

Your Flower plots should be:

 

 

Marigolds

 

 

 

Thats pretty much the only thing to plant there, nothing else is really good. If you have some spare limp seeds in your bank then you could do them, but other than that stick with Marigolds.

 

 

 

Your Regular Tree plots should be:

 

 

 

Willows

 

Maples

 

 

Willows are the cheap way (best exp/gp some would say). Maples are more exp however they are significantly (or at least were before the price skyrockets) higher priced than willows. I personally do willows.

 

 

 

Your Fruit Tree plots should be:

 

 

 

Pineapples

 

 

 

Hands down, pretty much your best choice for a fruit tree. Nothing else really compares and this is where a bulk of your exp should and will come from.

 

 

 

 

 

Once you hit 72 farming you can also plant a Calquat seed for extra experience. I do not know in terms of cost/exp how but this is what people have told me to do to maximize exp.

 

 

 

 

 

You should TRY to do 4-5 herb runs a day and 1 run of each tree (It is possible to do 2 regular tree runs in a day)

 

 

 

Always pay your tree farmers (1 basket of apples for willow trees/1 basket of oranges for maple trees and 10 watermelons for pineapple trees) and always supercompost your herb and flower patches.

Why, why, why do you always have to post before me on farming topics and say everything that I was about to type? Farming questions are one of the few topics I actually bother replying to nowadays :P.

 

 

 

Anyway. To make my post a bit more relevant; if you ever have to do a quest to gain a certain advantage in farming, do it. It's so worth it.

Thanks that seems really helpful and it also give me stuff to do between slayer tasks :)
