Dwarf weed seeds can be planted in a herb patch in order to produce grimy dwarf weeds. This requires a Farming level of 79.

A nearby gardener will not watch over your growing dwarf weed.

Dwarf weed seeds can be obtained as a monster drop, by pickpocketing Master Farmers or bought from the Vinesweeper minigame for 9000 points each.

Planting dwarf weed seeds are very profitable, so therefore players are advised to make sure that the herb does not die. Ultracompost is strongly recommended, as this is the best way of preventing your herbs from getting disease and increasing yield per patch. If you have completed My Arm's Big Adventure, the herb patch on top of the Troll Stronghold becomes disease-free, ensuring that your seed won't die. Even if you plant it there however, you should still use ultracompost to increase your yield and profit.
