'''Weeds''' will grow in any patch that does not have anything else growing in it, even if the soil has been treated with [[compost]] or [[supercompost]].

Players can harvest them by using a [[rake]] on a [[Farming]] patch that has weeds growing in it. Doing so will yield up to three weeds per patch, giving 4 Farming [[experience]] each.

A fast way to obtain weeds is by raking the flax patch in [[Miscellania]]. However, you can only do this until the player's popularity reaches 100% (You can kill citizens to lower it again).

Weeds are generally used to make compost. Players can put up to 15 weeds at a time into a [[Compost Bin]], close the lid, and leave the contents to rot. This will take around an hour, after which they can open the lid and retrieve their compost. Weeds are the fastest item to make compost with, because when you use a weed on the compost bin, it will put all 15 weeds at once. '''Note''': this doesn't change the time it takes for it to turn into compost.

Weeds are also needed in the Ratcatchers quest.

==No weeds option==
Upon completion of the [[Fairytale III - Orks Rift]] quest, patches may no longer need to be weeded. Talk to any farmer or gardener to activate this effect.

*No weeds
**Can you keep my farming patches weeded please?
**That shouldn't be a problem, Martin said I should give you special attention for your help with the fairies! Be sure to clear your allotment though as I don't want to interrupt their growth!

*Restart weeds
**Can you stop weeding my farming patches please.
**Sure, I'll stop weeding them now.

==Trivia==
*The price of weeds increased dramatically from [[24 March]] [[2010]] up until [[19 July]] [[2010]] when they were no longer able to be bought or sold on the [[Grand Exchange]].
*If you start to rake weeds away from your farming patch with a full inventory, the weed itself will not appear in your inventory (due to no space) and will drop on the ground. You still get the XP though.
