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.
