Herb patches are a type of Farming patch which require 1 seed to plant starting at level 9. Fully grown herb patches can be harvested by clicking on the fully grown herb; harvests vary between 3 and 18 grimy herbs and leave a patch cleared for re-planting. Using supercompost and magic secateurs a player will gain an average of 7.81 grimy herbs when harvesting a herb patch, with a minimum of 5 grimy herbs. The juju farming potion gives players a 1/3 chance to harvest two herbs in one action, and the greenfingers aura gives additional chance, up to 15% for legendary greenfingers aura. Using both a juju farming potion and legendary greenfingers aura, a player can expect 11.59 herbs per patch. All herb patches start with 3 harvest lives, increased to 4 with compost, 5 with supercompost, and 6 with ultracompost.

The herb patch at Trollheim, available after completing My Arm's Big Adventure never becomes diseased. In addition the Wilderness herb patch becomes immune to disease after completion of the Hard Wilderness achievements and is the only patch where bloodweed seeds can be planted.

Players with level 81 Archaeology can activate the Pharm Ecology relic power at the mysterious monolith to prevent all herb patches from becoming diseased.

Herbs take 80 minutes to grow, in four 20 minute growth cycles.
