When deciding which herbs to plant, aim to plant the highest level herb you can use in a potion that only requires one of that herb. For instance, although {{ItemIcon|Lemontyle Herb}} can be used starting from {{SkillReq|Herblore|40}} to make {{ItemIcon|Fishermans Potion I|Fishermans Potion}} for 36 XP, the {{ItemIcon|Seeing Gold Potion I|Seeing Gold Potion}} is better until {{SkillReq|Herblore|45}} because it uses one herb instead of two and thus will give more XP per herb.
