Complete the initial quests in the Shadowfell Area of Schedule I, from character creation and receiving your first cash to setting up your grow tent and planting your first seeds.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After the initial cutscene and character customization, you spawn in front of the bus station.
  2. 2
    Open your phone ('Tab' key) to find a message from 'Unknown' directing you to a payphone.
  3. 3
    Talk to 'U.N.' (Uncle Nelson) at the payphone, who instructs you to retrieve his stash near the skatepark.
  4. 4
    Collect $375 from the dead drop located on the ledge near the road to the motel.
  5. 5
    Speak to the motel manager, Donna, in the adjacent house to accept the 'Rent a motel room' quest.

    Enter motel room 1 to complete the quest objective.
  8. 8

  9. 9
    Accept the 'Gearing Up' questline, which directs you to the hardware store.
  10. 10
    Locate the hardware store (marked by a yellow star on the map, or by following the road from your motel).
  11. 11
    At the hardware store, deposit your cash at the ATM and purchase a grow tent, soil bag, and watering can. It's also recommended to buy 'Plant Trimmers', a 'Packaging Station', and 10 'Baggies'.
  12. 12
    Optional purchases include a trash grabber and a 'Trash bag' to manage waste.
  13. 13
    If you tell Dan you're a drug dealer, he may gift you 'Speed Grow'.

    Return to your motel room, place the grow tent, and fill it with soil.
  15. 15
    Go back to the payphone to speak with Uncle Nelson, who introduces Albert Hoover.
  16. 16
    Open your phone and message Albert Hoover to order seeds. Select 'I need to order a dead drop' and purchase 'OG Kush' seeds.
  17. 17
    Retrieve the delivered seeds from the highlighted dead drop.
  18. 18
    Return the seeds to Albert by placing the required cash in the dead drop behind the hardware store.
  19. 19
    Sow the weed seed in the grow tent by holding the seed and pressing 'E' near the tent.
  20. 20
    Fill your watering can at the sink and water the plant.
  21. 21
    Sleep to advance plant growth (plants grow ~15% per in-game hour).
  22. 22
    Once the plant is fully grown, harvest the buds using the 'Plant Trimmers'.
  23. 23
    Place the 'Packaging Station' and use it to package the harvested buds into baggies.
Tips
  • Speed-runners can open the motel room door and step inside, then immediately leave to complete the objective quickly.
  • Depositing all cash at the ATM is safer as it prevents fines or medical bill payments if you get caught or die.
  • Holding 'Shift' while grabbing items from storage allows you to collect entire stacks with one click.
  • Buying OG Kush seeds is recommended for easier and cheaper product mixing later on.
  • Placing cash in the dead drop to pay Albert Hoover will automatically deduct the owed amount, allowing you to put in extra cash.
  • Sleeping after watering plants at 4 AM prevents water and time wastage and maximizes growth.
  • The trash bag is useful for removing the trash can in the motel, which occupies valuable space.
  • $375 from Uncle Nelson's initial stash.
  • Optional cash boost from pickpocketing Donna.
  • 'Speed Grow' from Dan at the hardware store (conditional).
  • Harvested and packaged OG Kush buds.
