Introduction
Maple trees are a popular type of tree in the game Runescape, known for their high demand among players for their maple logs, used for a variety of purposes, such as firemaking or fletching. In this guide, we will cover everything you need to know about planting maple trees in Runescape.
Getting Started
Before you can plant maple trees, you must have the proper farming level. To plant maple trees, you must have a farming level of at least 45. You will also need to have a maple seed, which you can obtain in various ways, such as from bird nests, or from pickingpocketing master farmers in Draynor Village.
Preparing the Patch
Once you have the proper farming level and a maple seed, you will need to prepare a planting patch. To do this, go to any farming patch in Runescape and select "Rake" from the farming options. This will clear the weeds and rocks from the patch, making it suitable for planting.
Planting the Maple Seed
Once the patch is cleared, select the maple seed from your inventory and use it on the patch. This will plant the maple seed and allow it to grow into a maple tree.
Growing the Maple Tree
Now that the maple tree is planted, it will take some time to grow. It will take about 5 hours for the tree to fully grow, during which time you can perform various tasks to help it reach maturity faster, such as using compost on the patch or checking the tree's health.
Harvesting the Maple Logs
Once the maple tree has reached maturity, you can proceed to harvest the maple logs from it. To do this, use an axe on the tree, which will automatically cut it down and yield maple logs. Each maple log can be sold for a profit or used for various skills, such as firemaking, fletching, or construction.
Conclusion
Planting maple trees in Runescape is a great way to earn money and level up your farming skill. By following these simple steps, you can plant and grow your own maple trees, providing you with a reliable source of maple logs. With some patience and dedication, you can become a successful maple tree farmer in Runescape.
