Watering cans are used in the Farming skill to water allotment, flower, and hops patches, as well as to water seedlings to grow saplings. Watering reduces the risk of disease occurring at the end of that growth cycle by varying amounts.[1] During the next growth cycle, the plant moves from being watered back to normal and returns to the standard rate of disease once more, unless it is watered again.
A watering can holds eight doses. It can be refilled at any water supply, by using a bucket of water, bowl of water, or jug of water on it, or by casting Humidify. Vials of water can be used to fill them indirectly, by first using it to fill one of the aforementioned containers. Gricoller's can, an untradeable reward from Tithe Farm, holds 1,000 charges.
Watering cans can be bought from farming shops, obtained as a drop from farmers, or withdrawn from a tool store 5.
Watering cans with water inside can be used to extinguish the flame walls in the Chambers of Xeric.

"There isn't a formula as far as I know - the dev who made the skill just set different numbers. And I'm afraid the nature of how he encoded his data makes it rather hard to go look them all up on request."
