Herblore

Herblore is a skill that allows players to make their own potions that serve various uses. It is one of the most expensive skills for players who buy all or most of the needed ingredients.

Getting Started
All the secondary supplies you'll need will either be in the Grand Exchange, or Bob Barter's shop.

Grimy Herbs
Grimy herbs are herbs that have not yet been cleaned. They can be cleaned by clicking on the herb, which provides a small amount of herblore experience. Herbs are almost always obtained in their grimy state. To save money, players can collect their own ingredients to reduce training costs. However, this comes at the cost of being extremely time-consuming. Most players can choose to purchase herbs from the Grand Exchange.

Potions
The potion-making process in Herblore takes two steps, each combining separate items. The first step involves adding a primary ingredient (usually a herb) to a vial of water, to produce an unfinished potion.

The second step involves adding a secondary ingredient to make a complete potion. This is the main method of gaining Herblore experience. The choice of herb and secondary ingredient dictate which potion is made.
