OSRS Farming Calculator
Turn your Farming grind into an exact number of nights - and a date. Members skill.
Tap a method to plan your goal with it. Rates are realistic averages, not tick-perfect world records.
| Method | Lvl | XP/hr | GP/XP | To goal | Hours |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bagged plants fastest Pot bagged plants in a POH garden for instant XP; the fastest 1-15 route but pricey (~16-20 gp/xp), and it doubles as Construction XP. ยท 31 xp/plant | 1 | 80,000 | -20 | โ | โ |
| Oak & willow tree runs The daily habit that carries you for levels: plant oaks (481.3 xp) then willows (1,481.5 at 30), leave, return to check health. ยท 481.3 xp/tree | 15 | 180,000 | -1 | โ | โ |
| Herb runs (ranarr) profit Mainly for gp: little XP but ~160k a run; snapdragon (62, 142.5 xp) and torstol (85, 224.5 xp) give far more XP per herb. ยท 30.5 xp/herb | 32 | 25,000 | +100 | โ | โ |
| Tithe Farm The only continuous grind in Farming; ~90k/hr at 74+ with Logavano seeds, far less below. No gp, but rewards seeds and unlocks. ยท 253 xp/plant | 34 | 90,000 | โ | โ | โ |
| Mahogany hardwood runs Fossil Island hardwoods: huge XP per tree but only two patches and ~4-day growth, so it's a small daily topper, not a grind. ยท 15783 xp/tree | 55 | 300,000 | -1 | โ | โ |
| Hespori afk Plant once, forget for a day, then kill the demi-boss for a 12,600 XP lump plus valuable seed drops. Near-zero effort. ยท 12600 xp/kill | 65 | 15,000 | +15 | โ | โ |
| Magic tree runs fastest The 2026 meta backbone; add redwood (90, 22,680 xp) and celastrus (85). ~1M XP per active hour but capped near 6 trees per 8h. ยท 13913.8 xp/tree | 75 | 1,000,000 | -9 | โ | โ |
| Dragonfruit tree runs Highest-XP fruit tree and part of the meta circuit; plant alongside magic and hardwood trees on the same daily run. ยท 17475 xp/tree | 81 | 850,000 | -2 | โ | โ |
Farming is trained almost entirely through short daily runs: plant seeds, teleport away while they grow over several hours, then return to harvest and immediately replant. Tree, fruit-tree and hardwood runs supply the vast majority of XP for only a few minutes of clicks a day, while herb runs quietly fund the whole thing. Because growth is locked to real time, reaching 99 is a months-long routine rather than a sit-down grind, and Tithe Farm is the one method you can actually grind continuously.
How long does 99 Farming take in OSRS?
Roughly 13 hours of focused training from level 1 using Magic tree runs at about 1,000,000 XP/hr. At two hours a night that is around 7 evenings. Enter your current level above and the calculator turns it into an exact date.
How many trees do you need for 99 Farming?
From level 1 you would need about 937 trees via Magic tree runs (13913.8 XP each). Your personal count from your current XP appears in the results panel above.
Can you make money training Farming?
Yes - Herb runs (ranarr) earns roughly 100 gp per XP, and Hespori earns roughly 15 gp per XP. Slower than the fastest methods, but the grind pays you.
