The seeds are 288K, 5x288 = 1440K.
Lets say I get an average of 8 herbs per patch, so 8 x 5 = 40. Clean Torstols are 35.4K. 40 x 35.4K = 1416K
1440-1416= -24K
Maybe at 99 farming you get a lot more herbs idk. I use Jujus, magic secateurs and all that, so of course I have runs that I get like 50-60 herbs, but i also have runs that get like ~30 herbs. Also I can earn like 150-200K I think doing toadflax, which is nice because I do not have to sell the herbs/buy the seeds back right away because they cost so much (which is REALLY) annoying for me.
Also I can get a ton of xp with fellstalks. Considering I do not plant other trees, that is how I get my farm xp.
Your farming level dont make you harvest more herbs.
I already said something about farming torstols x farming other seeds when asked about best profit.
As you already stated, you barely make a profit, but each herb of torstol are 35k, so everything above the 8 herbs your profit gets bigger and bigger while doing toadflax that each herb is only 4k, you need a lot more herbs to profit more.
A good way to see which herb has better profit is doing this simple math
herb seed price / clean herb price, higher the number, harder to make profit. Atleast it is what I do
