Dwarf Weed Patch: What Does It Mean in OSRS?

The Dwarf weed patch is a farming location in Old School RuneScape where players can cultivate dwarf weed, a key ingredient used in high-level Herblore potions.

Location and Requirements

The Dwarf weed patch can be found in several herb farming spots throughout Gielinor. To successfully grow dwarf weed, players must have a Farming level of at least 79. Accessing some patches may require the completion of specific quests or providing certain payments to protect the crops from disease.

  • Catherby: Requires no additional quests and is accessible to all players.
  • Farming Guild: Requires 45% Hosidius favor and at least level 60 in Farming to access.
  • Troll Stronghold: Requires completion of My Arm's Big Adventure quest.

Growing and Harvesting Dwarf Weed

Once players have planted dwarf weed seeds in a patch, they must wait approximately 80 minutes for the herb to fully grow. During this time, it is crucial to monitor the patch for potential diseases. Applying plant cure or paying a nearby farmer can prevent these issues.

  1. Plant dwarf weed seeds in a suitable patch.
  2. Use supercompost to boost the yield and reduce disease chance.
  3. Check the health of the patch periodically.
  4. Harvest the mature dwarf weed to use in Herblore potions.

Strategies for Efficient Farming

To maximize efficiency when farming dwarf weed, players can use the following strategies:

  • Utilize teleportation methods to quickly travel between patches.
  • Maintain a stock of supercompost or ultracompost for enhanced yields.
  • Complete the Hard Falador Diary to gain increased yields from the Catherby patch.
