Ironman verdict
At least 9 monsters drop it. The easiest is Hobgoblin (level 18, 1/390.1); the best rate is Ghast (level 28), at 10/128, about one every 4 kills. Other sources include Martin the Master Gardener, Master Farmer, Managing Miscellania and Power Flower Basket, plus 4 more listed below. Bittercap mushroom spore is members-only. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 51 coins, which is 35 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
