A comprehensive walkthrough for 'The Owlbear' quest in Schedule I, covering character customization, starting quests, renting a motel room, buying equipment, planting seeds, and packaging your first harvest.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Character Creation & Spawn: After a brief cutscene, customize your character. You will spawn near the bus station across from the motel.
  2. 2
    'Getting Started' Quest: Open your phone ('Tab'), read the message from 'Unknown', and go to the payphone to speak with 'Uncle Nelson'.
  3. 3
    Fetch Stash: Uncle Nelson instructs you to retrieve his stash near the skatepark, located on a ledge by the motel road. You will find $375.
  4. 4
    Rent Motel Room: Speak to Donna, the motel manager. After the dialogue, you can pickpocket her to steal back the $75 needed for the room. Enter room labeled '1' to complete the quest objective.
  5. 5
    'Gearing Up' Questline: Head to the hardware store (marked by a yellow star on the map, or by walking down the road and turning left).
  6. 6
    ATM & Purchases: Deposit your cash at the ATM. 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 a 'Trash bag' for optional tasks. If you tell Dan you're a drug dealer, he may give you 'Speed Grow'.
  7. 7
    Set Up Grow Tent: Return to your motel room, place the grow tent, and add soil to the pot using the watering can.
  8. 8
    Order Seeds: Talk to Uncle Nelson again. Open your phone and message Albert Hoover to order seeds. Purchase one 'OG Kush' seed.
  9. 9
    Retrieve Seeds: Albert will deliver the seed to a highlighted 'dead drop' location within 30 in-game minutes (30 seconds). Your tab with Albert can be paid off at the dead drop behind the hardware store.
  10. 10
    Plant & Water: Sow the OG Kush seed in the grow tent. Fill your watering can at the sink and water the plant. Sleeping after watering helps plants grow faster and conserves water.
  11. 11
    Harvest: Once the plant is fully grown, use the 'Plant Trimmers' on the grow tent to harvest the buds.
  12. 12
    Packaging: Place the 'Packaging Station' and use it to package the harvested buds into baggies. Unpackaged weed can be found in the output. Jars can also be purchased at the hardware store.
Tips
  • Speed-runners can open the motel room door and step inside to quickly complete the objective.
  • Depositing cash at the ATM is safer as you won't lose money if caught by police or if you die.
  • Holding 'Shift' while grabbing items from storage allows you to collect entire stacks at once.
  • OG Kush is recommended for its ease and cost-effectiveness in creating better products.
  • Sleeping after watering plants helps them grow faster and prevents water wastage.
  • The trash bag is useful for removing the trash can in the motel room.
  • $375 from Uncle Nelson's stash.
  • Potential early cash boost by pickpocketing Donna.
  • 'Speed Grow' if you tell Dan you are a drug dealer.
