Here’s a list of our beginner tips for Schedule 1. Learn how to grow your drug operations and make huge profits in the game.
Note: This article focuses on Schedule 1 and its content, which is a video game set in a fictional world. Items, recipes, etc, mentioned in the article are exclusively from the game and don’t refer to anything in real life.
Schedule 1 puts you in the shoes of a small-time drug dealer, allowing you to control your rags-to-riches journey. You’ll make drugs, bag them, and sell them to customers. You’ll buy ingredients and tools from dealers all over town. And you’ll even need to evade law enforcement if you’re not careful.
All of this can be a bit overwhelming, especially for new players not well-versed with the game’s different mechanics. So, in this guide, we’ll offer some of the most useful beginner tips for Schedule 1. This should make your initial time with the game much smoother.
Top Beginner Tips for Schedule 1
Here are some tips and tricks that will surely help you get through the first few hours of the game before you can master the more advanced mechanics on your own.
- Visit the Hardware Store to buy ingredients for making w*ed
- Only take orders that you can fulfill
- Marketing is an important part of growing the business
- Don’t charge too much for your product
- Buy the skateboard as soon as you can
Now, let’s understand these tips in greater detail.
Visit the Hardware Store To Buy Ingredients For Making W*ed
The Hardware Store is an essential part of Schedule 1. You will get access to several important tools and items from this particular store. In fact, to start growing m*rijuana, you’ll need to visit the store and buy some supplies. Namely, you have to buy a tent, a watering can, and a bag of soil.
Later on, you’ll get your hands on the fourth and last ingredient for growing m*rijuana plants, which is the seed. Also, whenever you’re planning to buy something from the Hardware Store, make sure you have a credit card with you, as the store doesn’t accept cash payment.
Only Take Orders That You Can Fulfill
The next one in our list of beginner tips for Schedule 1 is to be careful when accepting orders from customers. Early on in the game, you might think that you should accept every order that comes in. However, the game penalizes you if you fail to deliver any of the orders you accept on time. That’s why it’s best to only accept orders after determining whether you’ll be able to deliver the product on time. Take stock of how much product you have on hand. If you need to make a fresh batch, take into consideration the time that preparing and bagging will take.
We suggest scheduling your orders in a way that lets you have plenty of time in between if you need to prepare more. Keep in mind that when you’re playing alone, you will also need to run to the store or meet with suppliers to fetch ingredients. And you’ll need to do all of this while honoring your commitment to customers.
Marketing Is an Important Part of Growing the Business
Early on in the game, you’ll have a very limited customer base. If you want to expand and grow your drug peddling business, you’ll need to market your product to new and potential customers. Open the game’s map to check out where these potential customers are. Then, head to their location and offer them a free sample.
If they like what you have to offer, they’ll become a part of your customer base. However, if they’re unimpressed, you can try again the next day. Every potential customer will have certain likes and dislikes regarding the product, which you must cater to if you want them as loyal customers.

Don’t Charge Too Much for Your Product
It can be very easy and tempting to overcharge your customers in Schedule 1. When they make an offer, you can place a counteroffer, demanding more money for your product. However, if you’re not careful and you charge too much, it may scare off your buyer.
To get an idea of the fair price for any deal, look to the bottom of the screen. You can charge a price that’s slightly higher than the fair price without facing any penalties. However, go overboard, and your customers will reject the deal, and your relationship with them will suffer.
Buy the Skateboard As Soon as You Can
Our last suggestion in this list of beginner tips for Schedule 1 would be to get a skateboard as soon as you can in the game. Since you start off broke, you won’t be able to afford a decent vehicle for quite some time. That means, initially, you’ll have to traverse the town on foot. While running to places might seem fun at first, it quickly becomes a chore. So, the next best thing to a vehicle is a skateboard.
While the game doesn’t expressly tell you, you can get one from Shred Shack. The cheapest skateboard in the game costs just $75 and will significantly improve your speed while moving from one point to the next.
