Complete walkthrough for Schedule I's 'The Raven's Gate' quest. Learn how to start the game, rent a motel room, buy equipment, plant seeds, and package your first harvest.
Walkthrough
- 1After the initial cutscene and character customization, you spawn in front of the bus station.
- 2Open your phone ('Tab') and read the message from 'Unknown' to start the 'Getting Started' quest.
- 3Go to the payphone and talk to 'U.N.' (Uncle Nelson).
- 4He instructs you to retrieve his stash near the skatepark, located on a ledge by the motel road. You will find $375.
- 5Speak to the motel manager, Donna, in the house next to the motel to get the 'Rent a motel room' quest.
- 6Pickpocket Donna to steal back the $75 needed for the room.
- 7Enter room 1 of the motel to complete the quest objective.
- 8Return to the payphone to speak with Uncle Nelson again.
- 9A new questline, 'Gearing Up', begins. Go to the hardware store (marked by a yellow star on the map, or by walking down the road from your room and turning left).
- 10At the hardware store, deposit your cash at the ATM (use the 'MAX' button).
- 11Purchase a grow tent, a soil bag, and a 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 quests and convenience.
- 12If you tell Dan you are a drug dealer, he may gift you 'Speed Grow'.
- 13Return to your motel room, place the grow tent, and fill the pot with soil using the watering can.
- 14Go back to the payphone and talk to Uncle Nelson, who introduces you to Albert Hoover.
- 15Open your phone and send a message to Albert Hoover to order seeds. Select 'I need to order a dead drop' and purchase 'OG Kush' seeds.
- 16Retrieve the seeds from the delivered 'dead drop' (a small metal drawer with a cross). Your first delivery is quick; subsequent ones take longer.
- 17Pay off your tab by placing cash in the dead drop behind the hardware store.
- 18Sow the weed seed in the grow tent by holding the seed and pressing 'E' near the tent.
- 19Fill the watering can at the sink and water the plant in the grow tent.
- 20Sleep to advance plant growth and conserve water. Plants grow approximately 15% per in-game hour.
- 21Once the plant is fully grown, use the 'Plant Trimmers' on the grow tent to harvest the buds.
- 22Place down the 'Packaging Station'.
- 23Interact with the packaging station, place baggies in the 'Packaging' slot and buds in the 'Input' slot. Press 'Pack' and drag buds into baggies, then drag the baggies into the hopper. Packaged weed will appear in the output.
Tips
- Speed-runners often open the motel room door and immediately step out to trigger the next quest objective.
- Depositing cash in the ATM is safer as you won't lose it if caught by police or if you die.
- Holding Shift while grabbing items from storage allows you to collect the entire stack with one click. Right-clicking and scrolling adjusts the amount.
- Watering the plant before sowing the seed is possible.
- Sleeping right after watering plants conserves water and time, and significantly advances growth.
- You can unpackage weed by reversing the packaging process.
- Jars can also be purchased at the hardware store to store buds.
- $375 from Uncle Nelson's stash.
- $75 stolen from Donna (optional).
- 'Speed Grow' from Dan (optional).
- Harvested OG Kush buds.
