TL;DR - OG Kush Money Printing, No Mercy Edition

  • Grow OG Kush in pots only. Grow tents are decorative lies for people who enjoy poverty.

  • One pot-grown OG Kush plant makes $416 profit raw. That’s before you start being clever.

  • Add PGR and yield jumps to 16 buds, pushing profit to $522 per plant. Yes, quality drops. No, money doesn’t care.

  • Always mix OG Kush once unlocked. Plain selling is leaving cash on the table like a charity worker.

  • Use the $164 OG Kush recipe (Paracetamol, Cuke, Paracetamol, Gasoline, Cuke, Mega Bean, Battery). It’s the current money meta.

  • Mixing turns each bud into ~$133 profit after costs. That’s not balance, that’s comedy.

  • One mixed OG Kush plant makes ~$1,556 without PGR or ~$2,058 with PGR. From one plant.

  • Ignore quality early game. Volume beats perfection every single time.

  • Use fertilizer or drying only when customer bonuses start nagging you.

  • Stop overpaying for baggies. Dealers split jars and bricks into baggies for free. Let them work.

  • Solo players should rush pots → mixing → PGR → nonstop production.

  • Multiplayer should split roles like a factory line and abuse per-player money limits.

  • Hire handlers once scale kicks in. If you’re rich and still carrying boxes, you’ve failed spiritually.

  • Final rule: Pots + OG Kush + Mixing + PGR = money hose. Anything else is roleplay.


There is no mystery here.


If your goal is money:

  • Use pots

  • Grow OG Kush

  • Add PGR

  • Mix every single bud

  • Use the $164 recipe

  • Let dealers handle packaging

  • Scale with helpers when needed


Anything else is roleplay.

Fun roleplay. But still roleplay.


OG Kush isn’t the best strain because it’s exciting. It’s the best strain because it’s boringly, brutally, embarrassingly profitable.


And if the in-game cops look heroic while you’re doing this?

Good. They’ll need something to feel proud of while you’re busy buying the city.

The Weed That Funds Empires

in Schedule I

OG Kush is not “your starter strain.”OG Kush is the free industrial lathe the game hands you, just to see whether you’re smart enough to use it… or dumb enough to decorate your RV with grow tents like it’s an IKEA showroom.


This guide exists for one reason: money. Fun, vibes, roleplay, immersion - all lovely. Secondary. If your balance sheet doesn’t look like a stolen Swiss bank statement, you’re doing it wrong.



The Golden Rule: Pots or Poverty

Let’s get this out of the way.

Grow tents are decorative furniture. They exist to trick optimistic beginners into thinking they’re “upgrading.”


They are not upgrades. They are yield-throttling, light-ignoring, productivity-killing fabric coffins.

  • Pots give you more buds

  • Pots benefit from better lights

  • Pots grow faster

  • Pots make money


Grow tents are what you use when you enjoy losing quietly.

If it’s not in a pot, it’s not part of a serious operation.



Base OG Kush Math (a.k.a. Why This Works at All)

Let’s talk cold numbers, because feelings don’t pay bribes.


A single OG Kush plant in a pot gives you:

  • 12 buds

  • Each bud sells for $38

  • Seed costs $30

  • Soil costs $10


That means one humble plant quietly coughs up:

$456 revenue− $40 costs= $416 profit


That’s already better than most “advanced” nonsense people rush toward later.

And that’s before we start committing financial war crimes.



PGR: Because Subtlety Is for Amateurs

Add PGR and suddenly the plant stops being polite.

  • Yield jumps from 12 buds to 16

  • Yes, quality drops

  • No, the raw value doesn’t care


So now the math becomes:

16 buds × $38 = $608 revenueCosts:

  • Seed $30

  • Soil $10

  • PGR $30

Total costs: $70


Packaging (because nothing is free):

  • 16 baggies × $1 = $16


Final profit:

$608 − $86 = $522 per plant


At this point, OG Kush isn’t a plant. It’s a coin-operated ATM with leaves.



The Moment Everything Breaks: Mixing

This is where most guides start whispering, hedging, and “letting players decide.”

We’re not doing that.


You are going to mix. You are going to use the most expensive OG Kush recipe. And you are never going to look back.


The Recipe That Should Be Illegal (In-Game)

One OG Kush unit plus a shopping list that looks like a chemist fell down the stairs:

Paracetamol

Cuke

Paracetamol

Gasoline

Cuke

Mega Bean

Battery


Out comes a product worth $164.


Ingredient cost is laughably low. Packaging is still $1.


Which means each single bud turns into roughly:

$133 profit per unit


Now remember our plant yields.


Per Plant Madness
  • No PGR (12 buds): ~$1,556 profit

  • With PGR (16 buds): ~$2,058 profit


From one plant.

At this stage, the economy isn’t “balanced.”It’s lying on the floor asking for mercy.


At this point, you’re juggling numbers like a deranged accountant with soil under their nails. Time to measure things properly. 👉 Weigh Gram Digital Pocket Scale (0.01g accuracy) - because “that looks like a gram” is how amateurs get poor. This thing judges you silently and accurately.

👉 While it calibrates your conscience, read our Best Money Routes in Schedule I and stop making financial decisions based on vibes.

Time Efficiency: Because Time Is Literally Money

OG Kush grows in roughly 5 to 7 in-game hours.


That means:

  • Plain selling: decent pocket money

  • Mixed OG Kush: absurd hourly profit

  • Mixed + PGR: financial obscenity


If you’re not mixing OG Kush once you can, you’re basically choosing to work overtime for free. Which is brave. And stupid.



Quality: When to Care and When to Laugh

Quality does not magically increase base price.

What it does is charm picky customers into tipping you extra.

If you exceed their expectations, you can squeeze bonus percentages out of them. Up to a point.


Here’s the real advice:

  • Early game: Ignore quality entirely. Volume wins.

  • Mid game: Use fertilizer selectively when bonuses matter.

  • Drying racks: Only worth it if you’re deliberately farming high-end customers.


Drying racks take ages. They’re slow, needy, and emotionally high-maintenance.


If you’re chasing raw profit, they’re optional. If you’re chasing perfection, that’s between you and your therapist.



Packaging: Stop Paying for Baggies Like a Fool

Baggies cost $1 each.That adds up.


Here’s the trick the game quietly lets you exploit:

If you hand jars or bricks to a dealer, they break them down into baggies for free.


Free.


As in “why are you still buying baggies” free.


So:

  • Selling yourself? Fine, bag it.

  • Using dealers? Hand over bulk and let them do the grunt work.


Congratulations, you just fired Packaging Expenses from your organization.



Solo Play: The Fastest Road to “Rich”

If you’re alone, do this:

  1. Pots only

  2. OG Kush only

  3. Rush mixing

  4. Run the $164 recipe nonstop

  5. Add PGR

  6. Ignore quality until customers force your hand


You are not building a brand. You are building a cash conveyor belt.



Multiplayer: Turn Chaos into a Factory

Multiplayer doesn’t change the strategy. It multiplies it.


Because each player has their own money handling limits, co-op effectively increases how much clean cash you can process.


The smart setup:

  • One player grows and harvests

  • One player mixes nonstop

  • One player handles sales and routes

  • One player restocks and manages flow


This turns your operation from “friends tripping over each other” into something disturbingly efficient.



When to Hire Help (and Stop Being a Martyr)

Once you’re running serious volume, your time becomes more valuable than wages.


Handlers exist to:

  • Package

  • Move product

  • Keep stations flowing


If you’re still personally hauling boxes while printing thousands per cycle, you’re not frugal.

You’re cosplaying as a warehouse worker in your own empire.


You’ve printed enough cash to start stacking it like a dragon with a spreadsheet. Storage matters now.

👉 Glass Herb Jars with Airtight Lids (12-pack) - keeps your stash fresh, legal-looking, and far more professional than sandwich bags stolen from the kitchen.

👉 Then finish strong with our Schedule I Dealer & Distribution Guide, where we explain how to let other people do the work while you do the counting.



FAQ

Is OG Kush actually worth sticking with long term, or should I switch strains later? OG Kush is worth sticking with for one brutally simple reason: consistency. It’s cheap to grow, fast, predictable, and scales obscenely well once mixing is unlocked. Other strains flirt with higher peaks, but OG Kush delivers reliable profit without drama. It’s the strain equivalent of a diesel engine that refuses to die while everything else is still revving itself to bits.
Why does everyone say grow tents are bad if they look more “professional”? Because they’re lying to you with fabric and vibes. Grow tents produce fewer buds and don’t benefit properly from lighting bonuses. They exist to make beginners feel like they’re upgrading while quietly kneecapping their income. Pots look humble, but they outperform tents the way a bulldozer outperforms a shopping cart.
Does quality really not matter at all when selling OG Kush? Quality doesn’t affect base price, which is why chasing it early is a waste of time. It only matters when customers start expecting higher standards and you want bonus payouts. Until then, volume wins every argument. Perfect weed is nice. Mountains of profitable weed are nicer.
Is PGR always worth using even though it lowers quality? Yes, if your priority is money. PGR increases yield dramatically, and yield is what gets multiplied by mixing profits. Quality loss only becomes a problem later when you’re deliberately farming bonuses. Early and mid game, PGR is less a moral dilemma and more a financial accelerator.
Why is mixing so important compared to selling OG Kush raw? Because mixing turns OG Kush from a decent earner into an outright economy breaker. Selling raw is like selling crude oil by the bucket. Mixing is refining it into jet fuel and charging accordingly. Once mixing is unlocked, selling raw weed is no longer “simple”, it’s negligent.
Is this strategy still good in multiplayer, or does it fall apart with more players? It gets better. Multiplayer doesn’t dilute the strategy, it industrializes it. Splitting roles keeps production nonstop, and per-player money limits mean more clean cash can flow at once. Solo play makes you rich. Multiplayer turns you into infrastructure.

I’m Niels Gys. Writer, gamer, and professional defender of fictional criminals. On screen only. Relax. I front JETBLACK SMILE, a rock ’n’ roll band from Belgium that sounds like bad decisions set to loud guitars. Turns out the mindset for writing about crime, chaos, and villain energy translates surprisingly well to music.

Here I run CRIMENET GAZETTE, a site dedicated to crime, heist, and villain-protagonist games, movies, and series. Not the wholesome kind. Not the heroic kind. The kind where you rob banks, make bad decisions, and enjoy every second of it.

CRIMENET exists because too much coverage is polite, bloodless, and terrified of having an opinion. Here, villains matter. Criminal fantasies are taken seriously. And mediocrity gets mocked without mercy.

I don’t do safe scores or corporate enthusiasm. I do sharp analysis, savage humor, and verdicts that feel like charge sheets. If something nails the fantasy of being dangerous, clever, or morally questionable, I’ll praise it. If it wastes your time, I’ll bury it.

CRIMENET isn’t neutral. It sides with chaos, competence, and fun.
Think less “trusted reviewer,” more “your inside man in the digital underworld.”

I’m not here to save the world.


I’m here to tell you which crimes are worth committing. 🤘
