Herbalism - Mulch is useless!

I have crafted at least 20 of the rare quality mulch that you learn from the Botany specialisation that is supposed to give you “a large amount of finesse”. Yet not one of them proc’d on any of the herbs I gathered. 200 Mycobloom and 40 Leyline Residue wasted for no reason whatsoever!

Blizz really needs to change these to either be consumed only on the next Finesse proc or increase the yield based on quality. (ie: Uncommon = 100%. Rare = 200%. Epic = 300%). I see no justified reason to use these in their current state and now I feel intense buyers remorse for wasting my precious knowledge points on this useless ability.

Yeah gathering is abysmal right now.

I came here looking for this. I have also had the same issue where the mulch does absolutely nothing. I have tried it on regular herbs, the ones that I planted in the dirt, and enhanced ones. I don’t get any extra.

Yikes, I was planning to spend some points on this. I’m sorry, that sounds awful.

So you don’t get any text that indicates your finesse produced more herbs when you harvest?

Green Thumb sounds good at first. But it only doubles the yield of a single node and has a 1 hour cooldown. It’s only really useful if you can find a Lush herb AND get a Finesse proc at the same time.
