Complete walkthrough for 'The Shadow Cursed Leader' in Schedule I. Learn how to start the game, rent a motel room, buy equipment, plant seeds, and package your first harvest.
Walkthrough
- 1Character Creation & Start: After a short cutscene, customize your character. You'll spawn in front of the bus station. Open your phone ('Tab') and read messages to receive the 'Getting Started' quest. Follow the instructions to find a payphone and meet 'U.N.' (Uncle Nelson).
- 2Fetch Uncle Nelson's Stash: Uncle Nelson will instruct you to retrieve his stash near the skatepark, located on a ledge by the motel road. You'll find $375.
- 3Rent a Motel Room: Speak to the motel manager, Donna, in the house next to the motel. The quest updates to 'Rent a motel room'. After the dialogue, you can pickpocket Donna to steal back the $75 needed for the room. Enter room 1 to complete the objective.
- 4Gearing Up - Hardware Store: A new questline, 'Gearing Up', begins. Head to the hardware store (marked by a yellow star on the map, or by following the road left from your room).
- 5ATM & Purchases: Deposit your cash at the ATM. Purchase a grow tent, soil bag, and watering can from Dan at the hardware store. It's recommended to also buy 'Plant Trimmers', a 'Packaging Station', and 10 'Baggies'. Consider a trash grabber and a 'Trash bag' for recycling and managing trash. If you tell Dan you're a drug dealer, he may gift you 'Speed Grow'.
- 6Setting up the Grow Tent: Return to your motel room, place the grow tent, and fill the pot with soil using the soil bag.
- 7Order Seeds: Talk to Uncle Nelson at the payphone again. He introduces Albert Hoover. Open your phone and message Albert to order seeds. Select 'OG Kush' and place your order. The seed will be delivered to a nearby dead drop. Pay off your tab at the dead drop behind the hardware store.
- 8Planting and Watering: Pick up the seed from the dead drop. Sow the seed in the grow tent by holding the seed and pressing 'E' near the tent. Fill the watering can at the sink and water the plant. Sleeping after watering helps plants grow faster and conserves water.
- 9Harvesting: Once the plant is fully grown, use the plant trimmers on the grow tent to harvest the buds.
- 10Packaging: Place down the 'Packaging Station'. Interact with it to package the harvested 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, and the baggie into the hopper. Packaged weed will appear in the output.
