It is just me, or does this seem absolutely ridiculous for non-SoF, lower-level members?

I mean, I used to play this a ton as a kid, and a month or so before this event started I decided to start playing again.  I just chopped 368 Yew logs and got lush blossoms to drop 7 blossoms one time.  Once.  And hearing that the xp gained defines the rate of drop just tells me that they wanted to make this near impossible for anyone even moderately low.  I only have one headgear done and a total of 317 blossoms, while I have been playing RS an absolutely ridiculous amount of time since this event began.  I even found a way to play it on my phone while I was at community college for a Dual Enrollment class.  And the event ends tommorrow?  Seriously?

To top it off, the vast majority of all of my crown-componants are from my free spins on the SoF.  I did almost every short & novice member's quest (I was not previously a member, so almost none were completed by the time the event started) for the free spins, and I am still quite a bit off.  Is anyone else as annoyed as I am?
