Overview of the Filled Plant Pot
The Filled plant pot is a valuable item in Old School RuneScape (OSRS), primarily used in the Farming skill. It is created by filling an empty plant pot with soil and then planting a seed. Players often use this item as a means of growing various crops, which can be used for cooking, potion-making, or selling for profit.
How to Obtain a Filled Plant Pot
To obtain a filled plant pot, players must first acquire an empty plant pot, which can be found in various locations, such as:
- Purchase from various general stores.
- Looted from certain monsters.
- Received as rewards from quests.
After obtaining an empty plant pot, players need soil, which can be gathered from any patch of earth or through the use of a spade. Once players have both items, they can fill the pot using the following steps:
- Use the empty plant pot on the soil.
- Then, plant a seed into the filled plant pot.
Planting Seeds in the Filled Plant Pot
Once you have a filled plant pot, you can plant various seeds. The types of seeds you can plant include:
- Allotment seeds: such as potatoes, onions, and carrots.
- Flower seeds: including marigolds, roses, and other decorative plants.
- Herb seeds: like guam leaf and tarromin.
Each type of seed requires different care and has different grow times. Players should be aware of the specific requirements for each seed, such as sunlight and watering, to ensure successful growth.
Farming with Filled Plant Pots
The filled plant pot is an essential item for players aiming to level up their Farming skill. Growing plants in filled pots is beneficial because:
- You can grow plants indoors, making it a space-efficient method.
- It allows for easier management of plant growth times.
- Increased chance to gain experience points (XP) due to quicker harvest cycles.
To maximize efficiency, players often use multiple filled plant pots to grow various crops simultaneously, turning their farming plot into a mini greenhouse.
Experience Points (XP) and Farming Levels
Gaining experience points is crucial to advancing in Farming. Each successful planting and harvesting of a filled plant pot grants XP based on the type of seed used:
| Seed Type | XP Gained |
|---|---|
| Allotment Seeds | 20 XP |
| Flower Seeds | 30 XP |
| Herb Seeds | 50 XP |
Players should prioritize planting herb seeds in filled plant pots for the highest XP gains, as herbs are not only useful for potions but also yield more XP compared to other seeds.
Using the Filled Plant Pot in Quests
The filled plant pot is also used in various quests throughout OSRS. Some notable quests that require the filled plant pot include:
- Garden of Tranquility: where players must grow specific plants.
- A Fairy Tale Part I: requiring players to plant items in filled pots.
Completing these quests often provides rewards such as unique items, XP boosts, and access to new areas, making the filled plant pot an essential tool for questing as well.

To make the most out of using filled plant pots, players should consider these tips:
- Use a watering can to ensure plants stay hydrated, enhancing growth rates.
