Schedule 1: Best Apartment Setup Guide | Sweatshop

In Schedule 1, the Chinese Shop Apartment represents your first substantial real estate acquisition, marking a notable improvement over the modest confines of the Motel room.

Despite its compact size, managing space efficiently is crucial in this apartment. Rest assured, by following our handy guide, you’ll maximize every square inch and find that the value exceeds your expectations!

Read on and we’ll tell you the best setup we know of for the Chinese Shop Apartment sweatshop.

Best Sweatshop Apartment Setup Guide | Schedule 1

As a dedicated fan, you’d aim to elevate your status in the China Shop Apartment to the Hustler V Rank. This achievement unlocks a warehouse situated south of your Motel Room. This area is essential for hiring a Botanist and utilizing Oscar’s Store, which offers equipment crucial for optimizing your setup. However, it’s not absolutely necessary as we’ll also provide you with an alternative at lower levels.

However, I’ve prepared a shopping list detailing all the necessary items for the ideal configuration of this setup, along with suggested places to purchase them:

1. Item 1: [Description] – [Where to Buy]
2. Item 2: [Description] – [Where to Buy]
3. Item 3: [Description] – [Where to Buy]
4. …and so on…

Please find the complete list below:

[Your List Goes Here]

  • Moisture Preserving Pot x8 – Oscar’s Store ($400 Total)
  • Suspension Rack x8 – Oscar’s Store ($320 Total)
  • Full Spectrum Grow Light x8 – Oscar’s Store ($1600 Total)
  • Large Storage Rack x7 – Dan’s Hardware Store ($480 Total)
  • Packaging Station Mk2 x1 – Dan’s Hardware Store ($750)
  • Mixing Station Mk2 x1 – Oscar’s Store ($2000)

The total expense, considering all factors such as hiring a botanist and purchasing necessary items including PGR, soil, seeds, packaging, and so forth, will likely amount to approximately $6000 or more.

Alternatively, though, you can cut down costs by using this lower-budget alternative:

  • Grow Tent x8 – Dan’s Hardware Store ($800 Total)
  • Large Storage Rack x7 – Dan’s Hardware Store ($480 Total)
  • Packaging Station Mk2 x1 – Dan’s Hardware Store ($750)
  • Mixing Station x1 – Oscar’s Store ($500)

The less expensive arrangement will cost approximately $2530, not counting the Botanist and other items. Therefore, if you plan to begin, we suggest having a budget of at least $3000. This setup can be used without Oscar’s Store, but for now, you’ll have to hold off on the Mixing Station. Keep in mind that without the Mixing Station, you won’t be able to employ a Botanist.

Setting Up the China Shop Apartment Sweatshop | Schedule 1

After gathering all essential items, it’s now time to begin the setup process! To start with, consider hiring a botanist for initial arrangements. Unlike placing a bed within the apartment, you will designate a bed for them in the motel room instead, to maximize available space.

Fundamentally, you should engage a Botanist for your apartment living duties, yet provide them with lodging at the Motel. Additionally, ensure that a stack of $200 is provided as their remuneration to enable them to carry out their tasks effectively.

With the Botanist prepared, you intend to arrange your pots in a C-shape within the main room of the apartment. Keep the ends open since those areas are hard to access. Utilize the Standing Racks to position the Full Spectrum Grow Lights above the pots.

The illustration given demonstrates a costlier Suspension Rack configuration, yet it functions identically if you opt for Grow Tents as an alternative.

Afterward, arrange all your storage units against the rear wall of the apartment. They’ll fit snugly together without occupying too much space, so you can access them from their sides. The one nearest the entrance will be situated apart from the others due to the presence of a sink.

Position the Mixing Station at the forefront of the rack next to the door, followed by the Packaging Station. The Packaging Station should be situated in front of the Mixing Station for optimal functionality, although it might appear a bit unconventional. However, this arrangement allows us to make the best use of the limited space available!

Stocking Up and Managing the Botanist

Once that’s taken care of, there are just a few more details left before perfecting the China Shop Apartment sweatshop as outlined in Schedule 1. To begin with, fill your storage racks with essential items. Make sure you have an ample supply of Plant Growth Regulators (PGR), Fertilizer, Soil, and Seeds for the Botanist to utilize. Additionally, ensure there are plenty of Jars and Baggies on hand for when it’s time to package the finished products.

Please designate the Botanist for all eight pots, keeping in mind that you can press and hold Shift while clicking to select multiple items simultaneously.

Ensure each pot is properly labeled with your preferred Seed, PGR, and Fertilizer. Arrange these pots in the designated storage racks. From thereon, your Botanist will autonomously oversee every step of the cultivation and harvesting process.

The main problem with this arrangement is that it becomes quite messy very rapidly due to lack of regular cleaning. Since the spot for hiring an employee is already filled by the Botanist, there’s no Cleaner available to maintain cleanliness. Consequently, you’ll have to perform the tasks of cleaning and packaging products yourself.

Regardless, this concludes our manual on the top choices for a compact factory workspace within Schedule 1’s China Shop Apartment. While it may seem unusual, it effectively maximizes the minimal area at your disposal!
