Farming Torstols

[borrring]

I've been farming herbs for a while now, and am 99 farming. I'd never farmed Torstol before, and came back after a break and noticed everyone was saying that they're good profit. Before i left juju potions had just been introduced and, using them, i was normally getting over 50 snapdragons per run, but since i've begun farming Torstols it seems that they're dying a lot more than snapdragons ever did? I'm barely making a profit from Torstol, and am thinking of doing snaps for all the patches except for My arms.

 

The last herb run I did, 3 of my 5 plants were dead. My question is: Is this normal? Do snapdragons die this often now? Or have i just hit an unlucky streak and things will turn around soon?

 

Thanks!

What's your sample size?

Sorry meant to put that in there, i've only farmed about 50 Torstol seeds.

Its just a string of bad luck. Whether or not it will change is anyones guess. Don't expect it to average itself out in the short term but given that that's worse than usual (to give you an idea I averaged ~10.5 herbs / seed in my last 1k seeds (with juju, after allowing for seeds gotten back which is where a large part of profit comes from)), chances are next runs won't be as bad.

 

If your herbs keep dieing, another solution might be to get the Remote Farm spell from Livid Farm - by casting that every 20-30 mins after planting you can stop deaths altogether (assuming you're still online after planting).
