Potato seed

Potato seed is a free-to-play item, with a high alchemy value of 4 coins. The simplest way for an Ironman to get Potato seed is to buy it: Draynor Seed Market in Draynor Village sells it for 8 coins, and 2 other shops stock it too.

“A potato seed - plant in an allotment. Used in Farming (1).”

Ironman verdict

At least 7 monsters drop it. The easiest is Gelatinous abomination (level 2, 1/38.8); the best rate is Troll chucker (level 7), at 1/6.1, about one every 2 kills. Other sources include Farmer, Wise Old Man/Tasks, Managing Miscellania and Troll brute, plus 4 more listed below. One recipe uses Potato seed: Seedy mush. Potato seed is available on free-to-play worlds too. 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 4 coins, which is 4 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
