Gathering Herbs
Sometimes, it can be difficult to gather new herbs when you really need them. There are 2 methods (besides looting monsters and trading other members) which you can use to increase your Herb stock.
Exchanging Goutweed
If you've completed the Eadgar's Ruse Quest (in which you had to get a Goutweed for Sanfew), you can use this method. Head to the Troll Stronghold (of course, you'll probably need some food and equipment!) and make your way to the Storeroom. You'll need the Storeroom Key to get in, which is in the southeast Kitchen Drawer (near Burntmeat the troll).
Once you're inside, you'll need to get through the "maze" of boxes to the southern part of the room. Don't let the Troll guard see you! Once you get to the south side of the room near the sleeping troll, search the nearby crate for a Goutweed.
Repeat this as many times as you wish. Once you're all set, head over to Sanfew, located upstairs in the Taverley Herblore Shop. He'll trade you as many unidentified herbs as you give him Goutweed. So if you bring him 10, he'll give you 10 unidentified herbs.
Sinister Chest
You will find Salarin the Twisted in the Yanille Agility Dungeon, and he can only be killed with the use of Strike magic spells. Each time you kill him, there's a chance that he will drop a Sinister Key, used to open the sinister Chest in the Skeleton room.
Once you have a Sinister Key, leave the dungeon and head to the old (practically dilapidated) house found north of Yanille. You'll need a knife or other sharp object to slice through the web, and you'll probably want an anti-poison potion as well.
Go down the stairs, walk across the Balance Ledge (you'll see an area where the floor has apparently caved in), and then enter the room to the west to find the chest. Open it with the Sinister Key, and you'll be poisoned. But you'll also find several herbs, including:
3 Ranarr Weed
2 Harralander
1 Irit Leaf
1 Avantoe
1 Torstol
1 Kwuarm
Hunter

The hunter skill is a very interesting skill in RuneScape, giving you the ability to track, set traps, and catch all sorts of creatures that you would otherwise be unable to interact with. It takes patience though, and you'll need to start small and work your way up to the tougher creatures - but it's worth it!
