Why train Farming?
Farming is unlike every other skill: it's trained in short daily runs on a timer, not by the hour, and a few minutes of herb and tree runs can bank enormous XP.
Because Farming is measured per run rather than per hour, ScapePath treats it as a recurring habit and links its herb patches to the herb-run money method — the same activity funds your Herblore.
38 starts ranarr herb runs, 45 is your first fruit trees, 65 adds snapdragon, 75 opens magic and palm trees, and 83 is torstol. Set the runs as a daily loop and the levels accumulate almost passively.
