for alchemist: i collect herbs by myself till 300 or 350, here it s impossible levelling multiple alchemists at same time, for simple reason there arent herbs avaible in ah.
i spent my time on my 3 herbalists, playing them in rotation on 3 different locations at one time.
for me, key-herbs are:
at low level
- briarthorn -> i farm in silverpine(my server has low horde population, so its a great place, a short path) and hillsbrad
- bruiseweed -> hillsbrad and (better) wetlands
- stranglekept -> STV and coast of wetlands
at medium/high level
- goldthorn (a real issue)-> STV , Arathi, hinterlands, swamp of sorrows
- sungrass (same)-> hinterlands, WPL, blasted lands
- arthas tear -> WPL 100%, tour is medium
- buy if cheap Wildvine potion/wildvine herb, the purple lotus is in STV tour, hintelands tour, you need 10/15 per char.
- Blindweed -> swamp of sorrows
- plaguebloom (really a key herb) WPL 100%
- gromsblood (10 x char at least) Blasted land 100%
- 290->300 i alwasy buy Greater Protection Potion recipes in ah (usually 1-30g max for 1) and the relative elemental items (fire, water usually cheap, 10g max for 10). unvaluable method for go 290 to 300 with 10 dreamfoil (WPL and Hellsfire)
300+ depends by prices and avaibility: if there are herbs i buy, otherwize fast farm in outland(there we can fly). i buy all herbs 350->450.
who of my herbalists stay in a certain area ofc get all the herbs are useful for the whole alchemist levelling.
its long: can take a week, or more, if you start from zero herbs saved. ofc speaking about level 3 or more alchemists at same time.
i dont sell herbs. i store it. can be useful in future.
i use this guide, with some personal modifications, really adaptive to my personal situation/avaibility of herbs:

The basic plan is to purchase as much as possible, over the course of 2-3 days.
And since I'll be doing 21 additional alchemists, if there are more then I need, there's no harm in buying extra when its available.
And to do the daily route (15 dailies, across one team) at least 3 times total over my 2-3 day cycle.

Which theoretically means, dailies pay for the alchemy leveling.
And a large portion of the herbs will be purchased and not farmed.
And it will be a two month process, give or take, to get all 22 Alchemists to 450.

It's going to suck yeah. But assuming most herbs do not cost you more than 1.5g each you can do it all for about 25k gold (35 alchemists in my case) It also helps to post on your realm forums or any outsourced realm forums saying you are looking for people to either help with your task or buy the herbs necessary. I've had a few people willing to help me farm herbs just because they know the potential money that will be made per week and know if they need help with something it will be given to them. Most of the items past 400 are under 20g per stack including lichbloom and icethorn on my server, so i'm not worried about those at all. The only potential sucky thing is the fact that you will need over 300 frost lotus... which on my server are 60g each. But that's not a really big deal if you are going to go the skyflare diamond way, which will end up reducing the amount of frost lotus required by 10 per character.

Im just looking to start alch/tailor on 3 people in my team. I saw the wow guide online thing and if you follow it too the letter you wont get to 300 they have a couple of points where they have you going into yellow and green without saying you need more then 1 per level. So I sat down yesterday and worked it out myself(Only 1-300 at this point), there is only 1 point where you go into yellow (85-95) and I doubled the mats required for those 10 points so if should be fine (I find you get about 4/5 for the first 5 into yellow and then it starts dropping) Also I tried to spread out what mats you use a little otherwise I would have needed well over 100 briarthorn if i went with the first one I started.
Also this is for Horde. Here it is if anyone is interested.

I'm curious, what's your plan for 22 alchemists? The reason I ask is, if you are planning to make a killing I think you will be disappointed. My server (fairly average server I think) cannot sustain 5 alchemists a day, much less 22. Not unless you want to live on the AH while you are dealing with people undercutting you.

You might be able to corner the market I guess, but again, lots of time monitoring AH.

So what is you long term goal out of curiosity?

I'm doing the same, and i already have buyers for all my gems if i were to sell them on horde. If i were to x-fer them to alliance i'd be making atleast 30g more uncut, and 50g more cut (thats after both .05 and .15 auctionhouse taxes) there are many servers which can sustain someone with large amounts of gems. High pop pvp servers seem to be the case with high X faction to low Y faction ratios (example, illidan is 6 to 1 horde to alliance and is a full server)

[Whowantstoknow]

Sideways I think the timing was just bad - im in the process of levelling 10x alchemists and bought up all the low level herbs on Grim Batol :P

[Ualaa]

This is the resources I've used, having now leveled two alchemists.
Most of the recipes were Orange, but turned Yellow while using them.
One recipe was Green, for three skill points; took 4 and 18 combines.

I'd rather AH purchase everything, and use Dailies to fund it.
But if you want to farm something, or there isn't anything on the AH for a segment.
