Herb Farming questions

Featured Replies

(long time lurker, first time poster)

Okay, so the talk about herb farming being 4.5m/hour, what herbs do i need to farm to reach that and what average harvest? (i assume it also includes the use of the dungeoneering farm scroll thingy)

Thanks!

magic secateurs boost herb yield by 10% according to knowledge base.

dunno how accurate that is though.

 

but including magic secateurs i get about 6.6 on average.

 

even more with juju farming potions, which you should most definitely use.

I don't know about per hour, but on torstol I average a little under 400k per 5 patch run at current market prices.

 

That's assuming a 9.5 herb per patch yield (about accurate with juju pots- it's 33% extra herbs and the Trollheim patch has a higher average yield due to no deaths). I also assume that scroll of life makes up for all dead patches exactly, which ends up being approximately correct.

4m per hour ? I don't think so. I'd say max 2m per day.

Farm runs take 5 minutes.You can do 12 farm runs/hour.Depending on the average profit you can beat 4m.

 

About the 4m/hr.People mean scroll of life+juju pots+secatures->torstols.

 

I prefer snapdragon as it's easier to buy the seeds in bulk.

Farm runs take 5 minutes.You can do 12 farm runs/hour.

Seeds take over an hour to grow, that doesn't make any sense.

 

EDIT: On further reading, Yes it is possible to do 12 farm runs in the period of an hour. BUT that hour takes place over 13 hours.

 

About the 4m/hr.People mean scroll of life+juju pots+secatures->torstols.

And yes, it is possible to yield 4mil profit from all of the above, using farming juju pots the average per patch can raise to around 11 herbs, Thus yielding a hefty gross.

Luck be a Lady

If you're good you could probably do a farming run (without the two Herby Habitat patches) in 4-4.5 minutes. I typically get somewhere a little over 4 minutes.

 

If we take 4.5, that/s 13.3 runs per hour of time. You'd have to profit 300k per run to achieve 4m per hour. With scroll of life and juju farm pots, I'd say that's probably possible, but likely not any sort of average. I could be wrong though, I really haven't used juju pots much.

 

Worth remembering that making the pots themselves takes a little time, though.

11 with juju is way too high. I usually get 8-9 per patch with juju/scroll/secateurs/supercompost.

I think torstol can do 350k/run, at an average of 9 herbs and half a seed.

Ofcourse, this is including the double herbs, the occasional seed back thanks to the scroll of life and torstols.

 

I used to do snapdragon (which you can already do, so I suggest it), which yielded me about 300k profit per run.

Going to try snapdragons,im already farming snaps on trollheim and toadflax on the other patches. I guess the juju potions wouldnt be worth it for snapdragons?

Hamstie.png

I use them for snaps.Pots aren't hard to get + the pot itself works on ugune.I have enough time at the end of a farm run to harvest the ugune herb aswell.

Personally averaging 10.4/patch with juju pots and everything

You're only averaging that if you're ignoring dead patches and slow runs. Or you've only had juju pots for like a day lol.

Eh, check his farm rank green.

Thats over a total of 300 seeds, could get lower yeah but I rather like juju pots so far

 

Or wait you do have a point, thats over 300 seeds bought not per patch. Meaning 333 seeds farmed or something, which is close to your 9.5

I've done like 500 seeds since juju pots came out, so I'm pretty sure about my ~9.5.
