Bittercap mushroom spores can be grown into bittercap mushrooms in the Canifis and Isafdar mushroom patches. This requires level 53 Farming, giving 67 experience for planting the seed and 57.7 experience per mushroom harvested. Harvesting from a mushroom patch with bittercap mushrooms grants 6 mushrooms. Bittercap mushrooms take 4 hours to grow, and cannot be watered. These mushrooms have various uses, some of which are involved with the Cooking skill, or as part of the fairy ring network.

A nearby gardener will not watch over your growing bittercap mushrooms. Upon completing the medium Morytania achievements, however, the Canifis patch becomes permanently immunised against disease. The Isafdar patch requires completion of the medium Tirannwn achievements.

Bittercap mushroom spores may be bought at 800 Vinesweeper points each with Mrs. Winkin. However, it is much cheaper to get it at the Grand Exchange.
