#* Open any {{ItemIcon|Bird Nest|Bird Nests}}, plant the seeds you're able to in {{Skill|Farming}}, and sell any seeds you're not able to plant. If able, always use {{ItemIcon|Weird Gloop}} (by combining 2 {{ItemIcon|Compost}} with 10 {{ItemIcon|Rune Essence}} in the {{Icon|Shop}}) when planting seeds as this guarantees their growth.

#* We will use these Tablets in {{Skill|Woodcutting}} to further level {{Skill|Summoning}} to unlock the Ent/Octopus [[Ent#Synergies|Synergy]] for Fishing later in the guide. You can see all possible {{Skill|Summoning|Synergies}} here.

#* Summoning can be fairly expensive and unintuitive at first, however, as you collect higher level resources, you will use less of each to make each batch of Tablets, making them significantly easier over time.
#* Summoning is a very {{GP}} expensive skill, especially in the early game. It may not be possible to complete this step immediately. This is a great time to explore some other skills and see what their basic requirements are while you grind up a bit of cash.
# Train {{Skill|Woodcutting}} with your {{ItemIcon|Ent}} Tablets equipped, until 5 more {{Icon|Ent|type=mark|Marks of the Ent}} have been discovered, making your {{Icon|Ent|type=mark|Mark of the Ent}} level 2, enabling one half of the {{ItemIcon|Ent}}/{{ItemIcon|Octopus}} synergy.

#* No matter what you're doing, try to ensure you always have Tablets equipped, even if this means temporarily stopping whatever skill you are doing to create some more. Having a {{Skill|Summoning|Tablet}} equipped that works in the skill you're training increases the amount of {{Skill|Summoning}} XP you gain per action.
