Toadflax is a Farming plant that grows after planting a Toadflax seed in a herb patch, requiring level 38 Farming. It takes 80 minutes to grow, in 4 stages of 20 minutes each, and when fully grown can be harvested for grimy toadflax.

Toadflax can become diseased while growing, and can be cured using plant cure. If not cured, it will eventually become dead herbs.

As with all herb patch crops, nearby gardeners will not watch over growing toadflax.

The yield is variable, using the "harvest lives" mechanic with a minimum of 3 lives. The number of lives can be increased by 1 using compost, 2 using supercompost, or 3 with ultracompost. The chance to save harvest lives is improved with higher Farming level, and can be further improved using magic secateurs, the Farming cape, or having a growing Attas plant. Additionally, completing the Kandarin Diary will improve the yield in the Catherby herb patch, and the Kourend & Kebos Diary will improve the yield in Hosidius and the Farming Guild.

Average harvest yield

Toadflax has a minimum of 3 harvest lives, increasing by 1 for each tier of compost used (for a maximum of 6 when using ultracompost). While harvesting toadflax, there is a chance to not consume a harvest life dependent on the player's Farming level. This chance scales from 17.2% at level 1 to 31.6% at level 99, interpolating linearly in between.
