Introduction

Planting spirit trees in RuneScape is a great way to increase your farming level and reap the benefits of the fruit that is produced. However, planting and caring for spirit trees may take a bit more effort than other crops in the game.

In addition, you will need a spirit seed, a watering can, and the ability to teleport to the location where you want to plant the tree. This can be done through the use of the Spirit Trees teleport spell, which requires a Magic level of 83.

Planting the Tree

Alternatively, you can pay the nearby gardener to protect the tree for you. This will save you time and effort, but it will cost you money.

Harvesting the Tree

Once the tree has grown to full maturity, it's time to harvest it. This will yield Spirit Tree Fruit which can be used to make various useful potions in the game. To harvest the fruit, simply pick it from the tree. If you have a RoW (Ring of Wealth) equipped, you have a chance to get an additional fruit. In addition, if you have a Tree-shaking scrimshaw you can get up to 10 fruits per harvest.

Caring for the Tree

It's important to note that spirit trees are susceptible to disease and can die without proper care. To prevent this, make sure to water the tree regularly by using the watering can on it. You should also make use of the Compost Bin nearby to create supercompost, which will increase the yield of fruit. Lastly, always make sure to pay the gardener to protect the tree from disease.
