But there are other options, which include:
Killing slayer monsters Pickpocketing master farmers Ppening reward chests at Wintertodt Doing bird houses Managing the Kingdom of Miscellania
We’ll look into each of these methods below and share some extra tips on how to stack up seeds.
Farming Contracts
When a player picks up a Farming Contract by talking to Guildmaster Jane in the Farming Guild, they are told to grow a specific plant or crop. Once the specific crop has been fully yielded (or if the health of the crop has been checked), the player can go to Guildmaster Jane to receive a seed pack as a reward. At level 45 Farming, players can complete easy contracts. At level 65 Farming, players can complete medium contracts. At level 85 Farming, players can complete hard contracts. The rewards scale with the level of the contract unlocked, so you get rarer and more valuable seeds for completing hard contracts than for completing medium or Easy contracts.
Getting Seeds from Monsters (PvM)
While level 96 Aberrant Spectres are great to kill for herb drops at level 60 Slayer, they’re also a great source of seeds. At level 80 Slayer, players can also kill level 115 Nechryaels in the Morytania Slayer Tower for a nice haul of seeds. Both Aberrant Spectres and Nechryaels are particularly good for a variety of herb seeds, bush seeds, and snape grass seeds. Level 74 and 92 Dagannoth have similar seed drops to Aberrant Spectres and Nechryaels – but they tend to drop the lower-tier ones rather than mid or high tier. A great place to kill Dagannoths is with a dwarf cannon under the lighthouse west of the Fremennik province.
Pickpocketing Master Farmers (Variety Seeds)
Master Farmers can be pickpocketed (at level 38 Thieving) for the widest variety of seeds in the game—almost every kind of seed can be pickpocketed. Ironmen usually pickpocket Master Farmers as an efficient source of herb seeds especially. And after 85 Farming, ranarr seeds, snapdragon seeds, and torstol seeds have an increased drop rate. Master Farmers can be found at or near various farms in OSRS at the following locations:
Draynor Village the Farming Guild Hosidius North of East Ardougne South of Varrock
Master farmers offer all kinds of seeds too. For example:
Allotment seeds can be pickpocketed, with potato and onion seeds being the most common, and snape grass and watermelon seeds being the rarest Hops seeds can be pickpocketed, with barley and hammerstone seeds being the most common, and wildblood seeds are the rarest Flower seeds can be pickpocketed, with marigold and nasturtium seeds being the most common, and limpwurt seeds being the rarest Bush seeds can be pickpocketed with redberry and cadavaberry seeds being the most common, and poison ivy seeds being the rarest Herb seeds can be pickpocketed with guam and marrentil seeds being the most common, and dwarf weed and torstol seeds being the rarest Special seeds can be pickpocketed, with mushroom spores being uncommon and seaweed spores and potato cactus seeds being the rarest
Wintertodt (Tree Seeds)
The basic (non-unique) rewards from Wintertodt include logs, gems, ore, herbs, fish, and seeds. Wintertodt is a great source of tree seeds for ironmen in general. In order to take part in the skilling boss, 50 Firemaking is required. Remember that Wintertodt is a dangerous skilling boss, and dying here is unsafe (it will be treated as a normal death, not a minigame death). Hardcore Ironmen will lose their Hardcore status upon death at Wintertodt.
Bird Houses For Seeds
Bird house trapping is a Hunter activity on Fossil Island where players can set up bird houses, fill them with seeds, then wait around 50 minutes for them to passively fill before collecting. While seeds are not a guaranteed reward for collecting bird house loot, players have a chance of getting a maximum of 1 seed bird nest (as well as potentially ring nests, clue nests, etc.) per bird house. Interestingly, the drop rate of bird nests doesn’t scale with the bird house tier, but with the player’s Hunter level. For example, at level 30 Hunter there’s a 23.44% chance of a bird nest. And at 85 Hunter there’s a 67.19% chance of a bird nest.
Miscellania
After completing the quest “Throne of Miscellania”, the player can manage the Kingdom of Miscellania. The player must speak to Advisor Ghrim to manage their kingdom, and also must keep a high approval level from citizens by doing various jobs around the kingdom, such as chopping maple trees, mining coal, and raking weeds. If the player focuses a full bar on “Wood” and half a bar on “Hardwood”, they’ll passively accumulate bird nests (most of which include seeds), which they can collect later on.
OSRS Seed Vault Trivia
The members-only Farming Guild was added to the game on January 10th, 2019. On March 28th, 2019, a very convenient seed vault was added just west of the bank chest in the Farming Guild, allowing players to save lots of bank space by storing their seeds in the vault.
