Allotment
Discuss4on this wiki
Allotments are farming patches that players can grow vegetables and fruits in. Most allotment patches also have a compost bin near tool leprechaun, a herb patch and a flower patch very near by. There are allotment patches south of Falador, in Port Phasmatys, north of Catherby, in Hemenster (north of East Ardougne). There is an allotment patch on Harmony Island, however there are no flower or herb patches and no farmer to watch your crops. Many allotment patches begin to grow weeds if not maintained after roughly 5 minutes.
The following items can be grown in any allotment:
- Raw potatoes at level 1,
- Onions at level 5,
- Cabbages at level 7,
- Tomatoes at level 12,
- Sweetcorn at level 20,
- Strawberries at level 31,
- Watermelons at level 47.
- Snape grass at level 80.
- Sunchoke at level 87.
- Fly trap at level 93.
Each patch requires three seeds of the same type to begin growing that fruit or vegetable type.
Potatoes are used as an ingredient in stew and baked into a baked potato, which with added ingredients creates high health-restoring foods. Onions are used in making yellow dye and as an ingredient in certain other cooked foods; they also only heal a maximum of 200 life points when raw. Cabbages are used in the Black Knights' Fortress quest, and only heal a maximum of 200 life points when eaten; they are also used as an ingredient to make garden pies. Tomatoes are used in making pizza and other baked foods, and they can also be eaten to restore a maximum of 200 life points. Strawberries can be eaten and heal a good number of life points and are also one ingredient of summer pie. Watermelons are used in making supercompost or scarecrows and are another ingredient of summer pie; they can also be cut into watermelon slices and then eaten.
Travel
Edit
- The fastest ways to get to the Hemenster allotment are by casting the Ardougne Teleport spell or by using a combat bracelet to go to the Ranging Guild, as well as using the Lodestone Network to Ardougne and running north-east. (Plague City required for teleport.) Players on the Lunar spellbook could also use the Fishing Guild Teleport (85 Magic required). The fastest way is to teleport there using the Ardougne cloak; however this requires the player to complete all of the medium Ardougne Tasks for a teleport once per day, or all the elite tasks for unlimited teleports. A skills necklace will take the player to the Fishing Guild, and from there it is only a short run to the east to reach the allotment.
- The fastest way to get to the Catherby allotment is through the Catherby lodestone, and then walking west to get there. Another fast way is the Catherby Teleport (87 Magic required) on the Lunar spellbook. Players can also use the Camelot Teleport on the normal spellbook, and walk east to get there.
- The teleports that get you near the Falador allotment are the Port Sarim/Draynor Village lodestones (run north from Port Sarim or west from Draynor), Falador Teleport, amulet of glory to Draynor, or Teleport to House (provided it is in Rimmington). The explorer's ring 3 or 4 provides a cabbage-patch teleport, designed for access to this allotment.
- The fastest way to get to the Port Phasmatys allotment is by the ectophial, and then walking west to get there (Ghosts Ahoy required for teleport). An alternative is to use the fairy ring network to the Haunted Woods (code ALQ), a short walk south of the allotment.
- The fastest way to get to the Harmony allotment is to use a bottle of Rum from Trouble Brewing, then walk through the jungle to get to the main city and teleport to Harmony by Brother Tranquility.
