The Schedule 1 Mixing Process: Step-by-Step
Creating the perfect Schedule 1 mix follows specific rules that determine how substances interact and final effects are calculated. Understanding this step-by-step process is key to crafting profitable combinations and recipes that satisfy your customers' preferences.
Key Concepts
Production Cost
Total expense to create one unit: base cost (seed price / yield) + all substance costs. Example: $3 base + $11 substances = $14 total cost.
Selling Price
What customers pay: base price x (1 + effect modifiers). Example: $35 x 2.5 = $87.50 with +150% from effects.
Markup
Percentage return: (profit / production cost) x 100. Example: ($73.50 profit / $14 cost) x 100 = 525% markup.
Tip: Lower production costs dramatically increase markup. A $3/bud base vs $4.50/bud base can mean 200%+ difference in markup.

Base Selection Strategy
- Maximum Profit: Choose low-cost bases like OG Kush (1067% markup)
- Specific Effects: Select bases with desired starting effects to build upon
- Complex Mixes: Higher-cost bases may unlock unique transformation chains
- Customer Preferences: Match base effects to target demographics
2.Add Your First Substance
Substances transform and enhance your base effects
Flu Medicine
First Additive
Starting with:
Calming
Transforms to:
Bright-EyedSedating
+1 new effects, 2 transformed
Effect Transformation Rules
When you add a substance to your base, several things can happen:
- Effect Transformation: The substance may transform existing effects into new ones based on its rules.
- Add Base Effect: The substance adds its own base effect if there's room (up to 8 total effects).
Example Transformation:
When Flu Medicine is added to OG Kush, it transforms the Calming effect into Bright-Eyed and also adds its own base effect Sedating.
This transformation works because Flu Medicine contains a rule that specifically targets the Calming effect.
3.Add Additional Substances
Sequence matters -- each addition builds on the current state
Energy Drink
Second Additive
Current mix has:

Adding Sequence Guidelines
The sequence of adding substances matters significantly. Each substance interacts with the mix in its current state, which changes with every addition.
Example Sequence Impact:
Sequence A
OG Kush → Flu Medicine → Energy Drink
Results:
Bright-EyedMunchiesAthletic
Value:+84% modifier
Sequence B
OG Kush → Energy Drink → Flu Medicine
Results:
Bright-EyedMunchiesSedating
Value:+78% modifier
Important sequence considerations:
- Substances can only transform effects that are present when they're added
- Some transformations unlock valuable effect chains
- Maximum of 10 effects total in any mix
- Different sequences can lead to dramatically different values

Sell Price Formula
Base Price x (1 + Sum of Effect Modifiers)
- Bright-Eyed: +40%
- Munchies: +12%
- Athletic: +32%
$35 x (1 + 0.84) = $64.40
Profit Calculation
Production Cost = Base Cost + Additive Costs
$3.00 + $5.00 + $6.00 = $14.00
Profit = Sell Price - Production Cost
$64.40 - $14.00 = $50.40
Markup = (Profit / Cost) x 100%
($50.40 / $14.00) x 100% = 360%
