A Plant Cure is an essential tool in Old School RuneScape (OSRS) used to cure diseased plants during Farming. You can purchase it from various Farming shops for 40 coins or from GAG farmers near patches for 25 coins. This item cannot revive dead plants. To prevent crops from dying, players can monitor their crops with an Amulet of Nature or pay gardeners for automatic protection (this excludes herbs and flowers).
