Herblore is often overlooked as a Gold-making skill in OSRS, but it can be a great way to earn some extra coins if you know what you're doing. In this guide, LOLTANK will walk you through the basics of Herblore and how to make OSRS Gold with it efficiently.

 

• Herblore level up to at least level 12
• Unlock the various herb patches
• Farming herbs and trees
• Buying Bagged Plants from the Grand Exchange
• Planting your herb patches
• Profits from herb farming

 

 

Herblore level up to at least level 12

First things first, you'll need to get your Herblore level up to at least level 12 to make the most Gold. Level 12 allows you to craft Garden Pies, which will boost your Herblore level to 15. This will allow you to plant Oak Trees, which are the most profitable tree to plant.

 

Unlock the various herb patches

Once you hit level 15, you'll want to unlock the various herb patches in the game. This can be done by completing certain quests such as Priest in Peril, which will give you access to the Mortanyia herb patch. It's also important to unlock the various tree patches, as this is where you'll be able to plant your Oak Trees.

 

Farming herbs and trees

Once you have your herb and tree patches unlocked, you'll want to start farming herbs and trees. The most efficient way to do this is to plant Toadflax Seeds, which require a Herblore level of 38. Toadflax Seeds are the most profitable herb to farm, as they can yield up to 20k per herb patch.

 

Buying Bagged Plants from the Grand Exchange

If you're looking to make even more Gold with Herblore, you can also look into buying Bagged Plants from the Grand Exchange. These can be planted in your Player Owned House for instant Herblore and Construction experience. This is a great way to quickly level up your Herblore and Construction skills, so you can start farming more expensive herbs and trees.

 

Planting your herb patches

First and foremost, you need to make sure that you have the required level and items to begin herb farming. The lowest-level tree is the willow tree, which requires level 30 farming. You should also make sure you have ultra-compost, as this will increase the yield of your herb patches. Additionally, the magic secateurs aren’t necessary for herb farming, but they do provide a slight boost in yield. Once you have the items and the required level, you can begin planting your herb patches. 

 

Profits from herb farming

When it comes to maximizing profits from herb farming, there are a few things to keep in mind. Firstly, you should make sure you are planting the right type of herbs. Renar weeds are the most efficient and profitable herbs to plant, as they provide the highest yield per patch. Additionally, you should make sure you are selling your herbs on the Grand Exchange. Prices can fluctuate, so it is important to keep an eye on the market to make sure you are getting the best deal. Lastly, you should also consider investing in limestone. Recently, limestone has shot up in price due to its use in the new Forestry blog, so mining it can be a great way to make some extra cash.

 

Final Thought

Now that you know the basics of Herblore, you can start making Gold with it efficiently. The key is to unlock the various herb and tree patches and then plant Toadflax Seeds in order to maximize your profits. Herb farming can be a great way to make some extra Gold in OSRS. With the right preparation and strategy, you can easily turn a profit in no time. Good luck, and happy herb farming!
