Introduction

Planting fruit trees in Old School RuneScape (OSRS) is a great way for players to earn farming experience and make some extra gold. In this guide, we’ll go over everything you need to know to successfully plant and grow fruit trees in OSRS.

What You’ll Need

Before you start planting fruit trees, you’ll need to make sure you have the following:

Farming level of at least 27

Coins to buy the seeds

Spade

Watering can

Compost (optional, but recommended)

Choosing Your Fruit Tree

Choose the fruit tree that aligns with your farming level and goals. For example, if you want to make apple pies, you’ll want to plant apple trees.

Planting the Fruit Tree

To plant your fruit tree, follow these steps:

Visit any of the four garden patches in OSRS with your spade and seeds in your inventory.

Use your spade on the patch to rake the weeds and prepare the soil.

Use your seeds on the patch to plant the fruit tree.

Water the fruit tree with your watering can.

Optionally, use compost on the fruit tree to increase its yield and disease resistance.

Caring for the Fruit Tree

After you’ve planted your fruit tree, you’ll need to care for it to ensure it grows healthy and strong. Here are some tips:

Check on your fruit tree periodically to make sure it’s healthy and growing. If you notice any issues, fix them promptly.

Water your fruit tree regularly. The frequency will depend on the tree’s growth stage and the weather.

Optionally, use compost on the fruit tree every time it falls off some fruit to increase its yield and disease resistance.

Protect your fruit tree from disease by using the appropriate plant cure. If you ignore a diseased tree, it may die, and you’ll lose the investment you made in it.

Harvest your fruit tree when it’s fully grown to earn farming experience and sell the fruit for gold. You’ll need to keep checking on the tree to see if it’s ready to harvest.

Conclusion

Planting fruit trees in OSRS can be a fun and profitable activity. By following the tips in this guide, you’ll be well on your way to growing healthy fruit trees and earning valuable farming experience and gold. Good luck!
