Fix for Stuck on “Mix a Strain Worth $60+” Schedule 1 (Mixing Mania)

So you’ve mixed something worth $60+, maybe even as high as $80 or $100, and the mission still won’t update? Congrats—you’ve met one of Schedule 1’s most persistent bugs. The good news? You’re not alone. The better news? It’s probably not the end of your save file. Probably.

Here’s every fix that has worked for players thus far.

Quick Fixes to Try First

Restart the game completely.
Not just going to the menu—quit to desktop and reload your save. Some players needed to do this 2–3 times before the quest updated.
Try mixing again, with a new combo.
Even if your last strain hit $60+, the game might only count new strains created after the quest was triggered. So go again. Try different flower or mixer items.
Put the mixer in storage and get caught.
Weird one, but apparently putting your mixing gear in storage (like the cupboard), then getting arrested, then mixing again triggered the quest properly for at least one player.

Advanced Workarounds (When the Game Refuses to Cooperate)

Make a worse strain.
No, seriously. Some players said their $60+ strain didn’t count, but a random $50 strain did. Mix something dumb. See if it clicks.
Quit the game, reload, mix again.
Try this in loops. One player said they quit and reloaded three times, and then—finally—the quest updated on the fourth mix.
Sell it.
Some folks think the quest doesn’t trigger until you actually sell the mix. Try bagging it and handing it off to a customer.
Check your profit, not sale price.
This is a fun one: if your strain sells for $60+, but cost you $14 to make, then its real value is $50. Try trimming production costs or using simpler ingredients.

Last Resort Options

Use a totally different flower.
Some users fixed it by switching from Green C. to OG K. It’s unclear if specific ingredients are tied to progress triggers or if it’s just randomness, but it's worth trying.
Start a new save file.
Ugh, yeah. It happens. But before going nuclear, make sure you’ve tried every weird workaround above. Multiple people fixed the issue without needing to restart from scratch.

Final Blurb

This quest is apparently less about mixing genius and more about testing your patience. The game’s a little flaky when it comes to mission checks, and sometimes it needs a few slaps (or a few shutdowns) to get back in line. Keep mixing, keep reloading, and maybe say a prayer to the save file gods. Eventually, something should click—and no, your save probably isn’t doomed. Just bugged.
