Detailed walkthrough for The Temple of Bhaal in Schedule I, covering starting the game, renting a motel room, buying equipment, planting seeds, and packaging your first harvest.
Walkthrough
- 1Character Creation & Spawn: After a short cutscene, customize your character. You spawn across from the motel.
- 2'Getting Started' Quest: Open your phone ('Tab'), read messages from 'Unknown'. Go to the payphone to meet 'Uncle Nelson'.
- 3Fetch Stash: Uncle Nelson directs you to his stash near the skatepark, found on a ledge by the motel road. Collect $375.
- 4Rent Motel Room: Speak to Donna, the motel manager. The quest updates to 'Rent a motel room'. After dialogue, you can pickpocket Donna to steal back the $75 for the room. Enter room 1 to complete the objective.
- 5Return to Payphone: Speak to Uncle Nelson again at the payphone.
- 6'Gearing Up' Quest - Hardware Store: Head to the hardware store (marked by a yellow star on the map, or by following the road left from your room).
- 7ATM & Purchases: Deposit your cash at the ATM. Speak to Dan at the hardware store to purchase a grow tent, soil bag, and watering can. It's recommended to also buy 'Plant Trimmers', 'Packaging Station', and 10 'Baggies'. A trash grabber and 'Trash bag' are optional but useful. If you mention being a drug dealer, Dan may gift you 'Speed Grow'.
- 8Set Up Grow Tent: Return to your motel room, place the grow tent, and fill it with soil.
- 9Order Seeds: Talk to Uncle Nelson, who introduces Albert Hoover. Check your phone for a message from Albert. Order seeds via the message interface (initially only 'OG Kush' is available). The first order takes 30 in-game minutes (30 seconds) to arrive at a dead drop. Subsequent orders take ~4 in-game hours (4 minutes). Your debt is put on a tab, payable at the dead drop behind the hardware store.
- 10Plant and Water: Pick up the seed from the dead drop. Sow the seed in the grow tent by pressing 'E' when prompted. Fill your watering can at the sink and water the plant.
- 11Growth & Harvest: Sleeping after watering speeds up growth and conserves water. Plants grow ~15% per in-game hour. Once grown, use the 'Plant Trimmers' on the grow tent to harvest the buds.
- 12Packaging: Place down the 'Packaging Station'. Interact with it to package the harvested buds into baggies. You can also unpackaged weed if needed. Jars can be purchased at the hardware store for storage.
