Early Game: A Solid Yes
In the beginning, you’re working with tiny setups—usually a grow tent or two, limited cash, and high hopes. This is when Fertilizer and Speed Boosters can give you the upper hand.
Fertilizer (PGR) gives you more product per plant, even if the quality dips.
Speed Grow cuts grow time by half but does lower quality a bit.
The combo? Faster cycles, more bags, quicker profits. Even if you're selling mid-tier stuff, you'll have enough of it to flood the streets. That’s what matters early on.
Late Game: Still Useful, Especially for Premium Product
Later in the game, customers get picky, and dealers demand volume. If you’ve unlocked high-tier soil, pots, and lights—but your turnaround is still slow—fertilizer becomes more than optional.
Higher-tier customers want quality, so balance your booster use: use PGR on mid-range strains, and keep premium stuff clean if you’re selling it to snobs.
You can also assign one dealer to handle “low quality” budget product using full booster cycles, while another sells the good stuff.
Is It a Pain to Use?
Yes, kind of. It adds an extra step, and you need to remember to apply it manually. But once you’ve got your grow zone streamlined, the payoff outweighs the mild annoyance—especially if you’re selling multiple strains to different dealers.
Final Blurb
Fertilizer and Speed Boosters are absolutely worth it, as long as you use them with purpose. Early on, they keep your shelves full. Later on, they help meet the insane demand from higher-tier customers. It’s a little extra effort—but in the world of Schedule 1, more bags means more money, and more money means… well, you get it.
