Anyone who’s been playing Schedule 1 for a while may be tired of working with the same recipes. It seems the developers felt the fatigue coming and have now released the brand new Mushroom update. This new update brings new recipes around mushrooms, so obviously, these recipes are your ticket to the next level of profits in Schedule I.
Mushrooms (aka shrooms) are a high-margin cash cow; each bed nets around ~20 shrooms at $65 a pop raw, with mixes pushing prices way higher. But unlocking and scaling them takes some legwork.
How to Get Mushrooms in Schedule 1
Shrooms are locked behind Downtown access and key relationships. The very first thing you need to do is grind through the Meth Quests in Westville to unlock the Downtown area. Once the Downtown area is opened up, get “Friendly” with either Elizabeth Homley OR Kevin Oakley. Sell them product consistently and nail their orders on time. One of them will hook you up with Fungal Phil via text.
Phil texts you the “Vibin’ on the ‘Cybin'” quest. Follow it for a free intro batch. Fungal Phill is our guy who will get us going.
How to Grow Mushrooms in Schedule 1
To grow Shrooms in Schedule 1 you need to have a dedicated cool room (temp <15°C or crops die). You need the following list of items to set up a cool room for Shrooms:
| Item | Where to Buy | Cost | Why You Need It |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mushroom Spawn Station | Oscar’s Illegal Warehouse (6 PM) | $1,500 | Inoculate grain with spores |
| Mushroom Bed/Box | Oscar’s Illegal Warehouse (6 PM) | $200 | Where shrooms actually grow |
| AC Unit | Dan’s Hardware (Downtown) | $1,800 | Keeps temp below 15°C |
| Spray Bottle | Dan’s Hardware | $15 | Maintains moisture |
| Electric Plant Trimmers | Dan’s Hardware | $50 | Harvests mature shrooms |
| Packaging Station | Dan’s or Oscar’s | $750 | Bags and mixes for sales |
| Baggies | Dan’s, Oscar’s, Gas Stations | $1 each | Packaging basics |
| Storage Shelves | Dan’s Hardware | $30-60 | Organizes your setup |
Once you have all the items to grow mushrooms, it is time to set up the Shrooms maker in Schedule 1. Place the Mushroom Spawn Station and Mushroom box near each other.
Place the Gain Bag and Spore Syringe in the Mushroom Station to kick start the process. Inject the Grain Bag with the Spore Syringe. Do this through the black square but make sure to tilt the Syringe by pressing “A” and “D” buttons.
Push the plunger to spawn the Shroom Spawn. Go and interact with the Mushroom Bed to apply Mushroom Substrate (like filling soil). Drop Shroom Spawn in the bed. Break into 16 chunks and bury under substrate.
Fill the Spray bottle at the tap and mist the bed 2x (each spray = 56% growth boost; full moisture = success).
Wait for maturity and then snip with the Trimmers. Each bed yields 20 shrooms.
