The Herb Bag allows players to hold collected *grimy* herbs and avoid wasting inventory slots. However, for players with the Master Farming Outfit, the bonus it provides auto-cleans collected herbs, preventing them from being held by the Herb Bag.

The Master Farming Outfit is such an amazing set and milestone achievement that being forced to pick between it and another highly useful item is frustrating.

There are several ways this idea could be implemented, such as changing the priority these items activate in when both are present(Herb Bag storing the herbs *before* the set cleans them), but the simplest solution, I'd argue, is to just give player's the option to disable the auto-clean function of the MFO, perhaps by talking to Granny Potterington or some other NPC.

I can't envision any negative impacts this idea might have, only allowing players the option both items as they please. Thank for any consideration this idea receives.

You're right. It's a small inconvenience, but when you're using a juju farming potion to properly optimize your herb run, those extra seconds spent going to the leprechaun each time actually matter. That, and it's just an extra step that feels unnecessary when both items should be working together, not competing.

That, and it's just an extra step that feels unnecessary when both items should be working together, not competing. most of the time ur still not gonna have enough time to hit all 8 patches im lucky to hit all 8 maybe a quarter of the time before my juju pot runs out the issue isnt the herbs being cleaned or not its the fact the pot doesnt last long enough anymore like it did before

doing 10 herbs per patch with 8 patches being used with greenfingers aura and juju farming pot master farming outfit and 120 cape it comes down to luck that if my cape prokes and i harvest all at once theres still a slim chance i can get all of them in 5 minutes so juju pots need to be extended

Why not just make the bag able to hold both grimy and clean?

Spaghetti code most likely all over again.

By that point I'd rather get rid of grimy herbs entirely and just include the xp for cleaning into making unfinished potions - and give the herb cape something more useful in the same step.

I mean... herb is basically the sole skill, that needs its raw material to be processed twice in order to be used. Improvements: Tooltip / (F2P) QoL v2

I remember back when grimy were unids. Tbh, she's right. You can do away with grimy and add to the partial potions made. After all, you're doing herblore. why aren't you making experience for doing it? It's half the steps to making the potion. Makes no sense.

I have thousands of GRIMY herbs due to Managing Miscellanea. I have been doing herb runs to earn Crux Eqal favours for the Farmer's outfit. Point is that I have all the fragments for the Master Farmer Outfit but if I make it and due the herb runs, the CLEAN herbs will take up more bank space. As simple 'turn off cleaning herbs' would be a small feat and it would not upset the economy. Come up with an invention that auto cleans herbs just like the 'Auto Sifter' in Archaeology.

Having the option to turn off auto clean would be nice. My bank is set up to hold grimy herbs in the potion queue, and clean herbs in my incense stix queue. When I do herb runs, all my herbs are auto cleaned, and I would prefer more grimy herbs for potions. Adding the option to turn off auto clean with Granny is a great suggestion.
