Water is one of the most important resources to find in Schedule 1, as your drug empire isn’t going to kick off without it.
While the game’s introductory set of quests highlights the watering can, it doesn’t tell you how to use it and collect water in the first place. This guide will help you get access to water, use it to grow your very first Kush, and kickstart your journey of becoming the next Pablo Escobar.
How to collect water in Schedule 1
The first step is to complete the tutorial and get access to your motel room. The introductory set of quests requires you to go to the Hardware Store and buy three different items. One of those items includes a watering can (which is pretty cheap as well).
Once you have the water, you can come back to your motel. First, place the growth pod. Once you’ve potted the seed, it will show that the plant needs water. Equip your watering can from the hot bar and go to the wash basin. Press the E button, and you’ll be able to place the can under the tap.

Interact with the tap to turn it on. You can increase/decrease its flow to fill the can. Fill your can to the brim (as there’s no harm in filling it more). Once done, you’ll be able to use the can to water your plant. To do so, press E to activate the can, and then rotate it to pour the water.
That’s pretty much all there is to collecting water in Schedule 1. There’s a chance that we’ll see a more advanced process of collecting water later in the game. When you start your empire, manually filling your can is the only way to get water.
