Complete walkthrough for 'The Trial of the Gith' quest in Schedule I. Learn how to start the game, rent a motel room, buy equipment, plant seeds, and package your first harvest.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After the initial cutscene and character customization, you spawn in front of the bus station.
  2. 2
    Open your phone ('Tab') and read the message from 'Unknown' to start the 'Getting Started' quest.
  3. 3
    Go to the payphone and talk to 'U.N.' (Uncle Nelson).
  4. 4
    He instructs you to find his stash near the skatepark, located on a ledge by the motel road. You will find $375.
  5. 5
    Speak to the motel manager, Donna, by knocking on her door.
  6. 6
    The quest updates to 'Rent a motel room'. After the dialogue, you can pickpocket Donna to steal back the $75 needed for the room.
  7. 7
    Go to room 1 and step inside to complete the quest objective.
  8. 8
    Return to the payphone to speak with Uncle Nelson again.
  9. 9
    A new questline, 'Gearing Up', begins. Go to the hardware store (marked by a yellow star on the map, or by following the road left from your room).
  10. 10
    At the hardware store, deposit your cash at the ATM (use 'MAX' for safety).
  11. 11
    Purchase a grow tent, soil bag, and watering can from Dan. It's also recommended to buy 'Plant Trimmers', a 'Packaging Station', and 10 'Baggies'. Consider buying a trash grabber and 'Trash bag' for optional quests and inventory management.
  12. 12
    If you tell Dan you're a drug dealer, he may gift you 'Speed Grow'.
  13. 13
    Return to your motel room, place the grow tent, and fill it with soil using the watering can.
  14. 14
    Go back to the payphone to speak with Uncle Nelson, who introduces you to Albert Hoover.
  15. 15
    Open your phone and send a message to Albert Hoover to order seeds. Select 'I need to order a [dead drop]' and purchase one 'OG Kush' seed.
  16. 16
    Albert will deliver the seed to a highlighted 'dead drop' location within 30 in-game minutes (or longer for subsequent orders). Your debt is placed on a tab.
  17. 17
    Pick up the seed from the 'dead drop'.
  18. 18
    Return to your motel room, sow the seed in the grow tent by pressing 'E' when prompted.
  19. 19
    Water the plant using the watering can (fill it at the sink first).
  20. 20
    Sleep to advance plant growth (plants grow about 15% per in-game hour).
  21. 21
    Once the plant is fully grown, use the 'Plant Trimmers' on the grow tent to harvest the buds.
  22. 22
    Place down the 'Packaging Station' in your room.
  23. 23
    Interact with the 'Packaging Station' to package the buds into baggies. Drag baggies to the 'Packaging' spot and buds to the 'Input' spot. Press 'Pack' and then drag each bud into a baggie, then drag the baggie into the hopper. Packaged weed will appear in the output.
Tips
  • Speed-runners can open the motel room door and step inside, then immediately leave to trigger the quest completion.
  • Pickpocketing Donna after the motel room dialogue can provide an early cash boost.
  • Depositing all cash in the ATM protects it from fines or medical bills if you get caught or die.
  • Holding Shift while grabbing items from storage allows you to collect entire stacks with one click.
  • Right-clicking and scrolling allows for custom item amounts when grabbing from storage.
  • Buying the trash bag helps clear the 2x2 trash can from your motel room.
  • Sleeping after watering plants conserves water and time, and significantly advances growth.
  • OG Kush is recommended for its ease and cost-effectiveness in creating other products.
  • Albert Hoover's deliveries are placed in highlighted 'dead drops'. Pay off your tab by placing cash in the dead drop behind the hardware store.
  • $375 from Uncle Nelson's stash.
  • $75 (potentially stolen back from Donna).
  • 'Speed Grow' (optional, if you tell Dan you're a drug dealer).
  • Harvested and packaged OG Kush buds.
