== Introduction ==
== Training ==
Plant the highest level seed in each plot. Unlocking extra plots when available will increase the amount of experience gained drastically.


This page goes through the general method and tips of training the {{Skill|Farming}} skill.
{{Skill|Farming}} gains experience based on the number of items harvested for [[Farming#Allotments_2|allotment]] and [[Farming#Herbs_2|herb]] patches, while [[Farming#Trees_2|trees]] grant a fixed amount of experience. Therefore, using items like {{ItemIcon|Compost}} will increase gains by reducing the amount of crop failures. {{ItemIcon|Weird Gloop}} further increases the harvest per crop, yielding even more experience from allotment and herb patches.


== Equipment ==
The large amount of experience gained when harvesting trees is quite useful in the earlier levels. However, as the experience from trees does not scale with the number of logs harvested they become increasingly irrelevant in the later levels.


* {{ItemIcon|Bob's Rake}} - Drops from {{Icon|Master Farmer|type=monster}} and provides a 50% chance to preserve {{ItemIcon|Compost}} or {{ItemIcon|Weird Gloop}} during harvesting
{{ItemIcon|Generous Harvest Potion|Generous Harvest Potions|img=Generous Harvest Potion IV}} can be used to increase the size of the harvest, but cannot be created until later as it will require planting both {{ItemIcon|Snape Grass Seeds}} and {{ItemIcon|Carrot Seeds}}, as well as {{SkillReq|Herblore|74}} [[Herblore]].
* {{ItemIcon|Bob's Gloves}} - Stolen from {{Icon|type=thieving|Bob the Farmer}} in {{Skill|Thieving}} and when combined with {{ItemIcon|Bob's Rake}} increases the preservation of {{ItemIcon|Compost}} or {{ItemIcon|Weird Gloop}} during harvesting to 75%, while also increasing harvest sizes.
* {{ItemIcon|Seed Pouch}} - Made from {{Skill|Crafting}} {{ItemIcon|Basic Bag}}, provides increased harvesting and reduced seed requirements for allotments.


== Training ==
There are a number of methods that can be used to gain a large amount of seeds: {{Skill|Thieving}} with {{Icon|type=thieving|Bob the Farmer}}, {{Skill|Woodcutting}} with {{ItemIcon|Bird Nest Potion|img=Bird Nest Potion I}}, or {{Icon|Combat}} with {{MonsterIcon|Junior Farmer}}, {{MonsterIcon|Adult Farmer}}, and {{MonsterIcon|Master Farmer}}. Other monsters may drop individual seeds at higher rates than these options, but at the start the goal is to collect a wide variety of seeds as fast as possible.


Train by planting the highest level seed in each plot style. Unlocking extra plots when available will increase the amount of experience gained drastically. Specifically the Tree plots will provide the greatest amount of experience per unit time.


{{Skill|Farming}} gains experience based on the number of items harvested, so using items like {{ItemIcon|Compost}} will increase gains by reducing the amount of crop failures. {{ItemIcon|Weird Gloop}} will also do that, with the added benefit of increasing harvest sizes which will increase the amount of experience gained further.

If {{TotH}} [[Throne of the Herald Expansion]] is owned, one can get [[Farming#Allotments_2|allotment]] and [[Farming#Trees_2|Tree]] {{TotH}} Seeds from {{ItemIcon|Raven Nest|Raven Nests}} by chopping down {{TotH}} Trees with {{Skill|Woodcutting}} level 100 or above. Alternatively {{ItemIcon|Grove Tree Seeds}}, {{ItemIcon|Banana Tree Seeds}} and {{ItemIcon|Elderwood Tree Seeds}} can be obtained by thieving {{Icon|Madremonte|type=thieving}} requiring {{Skill|Thieving}} Level 116.


{{ItemIcon|Generous Harvest Potion I|Generous Harvest Potion}} can be used as well to increase the size of the harvest, but can not be created until later as it will require planting both {{ItemIcon|Snape Grass Seeds}} and {{ItemIcon|Carrot Seeds}}.
{{TotH}} [[Farming#Herbs_2|Herb]] seeds can obtained from opening {{ItemIcon|Exotic Herb Sack}} (thieved from {{Icon|Sage|type=thieving}}({{SkillReq|Thieving|110}}) or {{Icon|Madremonte|type=thieving}}({{SkillReq|Thieving|116}})). <br> {{TotH}} [[Farming#Herbs_2|Herb]] seeds can also obtained from  killing {{TotH}} {{Skill|Slayer}} Monsters.

gains experience based on the number of items harvested for allotment and herb patches, while trees grant a fixed amount of experience. Therefore, using items like Compost will increase gains by reducing the amount of crop failures. Weird Gloop further increases the harvest per crop, yielding even more experience from allotment and herb patches.

The large amount of experience gained when harvesting trees is quite useful in the earlier levels. However, as the experience from trees does not scale with the number of logs harvested they become increasingly irrelevant in the later levels.

Generous Harvest Potions can be used to increase the size of the harvest, but cannot be created until later as it will require planting both Snape Grass Seeds and Carrot Seeds, as well as
