Learn how to buy essential equipment like grow tents, soil bags, and watering cans in Schedule I. This guide covers the hardware store, ATMs, and initial purchases.

This section of the Schedule I walkthrough covers the process of buying equipment, which is part of the "Gearing Up" questline. You will need to visit the hardware store to purchase several items necessary for growing.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Head to the hardware store. You can find it by opening your map ('M') and looking for the yellow star, or by walking forward from your motel room until the road ends, turning left, and finding it at the end of that road.
  2. 2
    Upon arrival, you'll receive a quest to deposit your cash at an ATM. It's recommended to use the "MAX" button to deposit all your money for safety against fines or medical bills.
  3. 3
    Next, you'll need to purchase a grow tent, a soil bag, and a watering can from the hardware store. Speak to Dan and use the shop interface to add items to your cart. You can adjust quantities by clicking the small arrow next to the "Add to Cart" button. Items that don't fit in your inventory will be placed on pallets outside.
  4. 4
    It is also recommended to buy "Plant Trimmers", a "Packaging Station", and 10 "Baggies" as these are needed for the next quest.
  5. 5
    Optional purchases include a trash grabber (to collect trash for recycling) and a "Trash bag" (to dispose of the trash can in your motel room).
  6. 6
    If you tell Dan you are a drug dealer, he may gift you "Speed Grow", which speeds up plant growth.
  7. 7
    After your first purchase, return to your motel room. Place the grow tent by holding it and facing it towards you. Then, hold the soil bag and press "E" on the pot when the indicator appears to add soil.
  8. 8
    Finally, you will be instructed to talk to Uncle Nelson at the payphone again.
Tips
  • Holding 'Shift' while grabbing items from storage allows you to take the entire stack with one click.
  • Right-clicking an item and scrolling allows you to select a custom amount to grab.
  • If you die or get caught by police, you won't lose cash if it's in your bank account.
  • The trash bag is useful for clearing space in your motel room, as the trash can takes up a 2x2 tile area.
