If you’ve mastered the early stages in Schedule 1, you’re likely on the verge of producing Cocaine in the game. This ultimate endgame item requires significant effort and resources. This guide will walk you through the essential steps to produce Cocaine successfully and prepare it for sale. To begin, ensure you have a substantial amount of cash, as the necessary ingredients can be quite expensive.
Unlocking Cocaine Production in Schedule 1
The journey to crafting Cocaine starts with unlocking the Docks region, the fourth area in the game. You’ll need to level up considerably to access it. The quest initiates after your first successful Meth production. Once you unlock the Docks, you will gain access to a new supplier, Salvador Moreno.

Salvador is the third and final supplier you will encounter, but you must achieve friendly status with either or both Mac Cooper and Javier Perez. To do this, consistently meet their demands and ensure you never fail to fulfill an order.
Mr. Salvador provides a critical item: Coca seeds, available for $80 each (approximately €75). These seeds grow into Coca plants, which take time to mature. It’s advisable to utilize pots and lights that optimize growth rates. Once fully grown, each Coca plant yields six leaves, and you’ll need 20 leaves to produce one batch of Cocaine (more details on this later).
Essential Ingredients for Cocaine Production in Schedule 1
In addition to Coca leaves, you’ll need a few key items and tools:
- Gasoline: Available for purchase from Oscar at the Warehouse, where you can also acquire weapons and employees for your drug empire.
- Cauldron: Also obtainable from Oscar.
- Lab Oven: You guessed it—this, too, is available at Oscar’s.
Once you’ve gathered all the necessary items and have your 20 Coca leaves, you can begin the production process.
Steps to Produce Cocaine in Schedule 1

The first step is to place the 20 Coca leaves into the Cauldron alongside a jar of Gasoline. You can prepare this yourself or delegate it to your Chemist. This initial process will take six real-life minutes to complete, resulting in raw Cocaine. This form isn’t immediately sellable; you’ll need to place it in the Lab Oven.
The next phase takes another six minutes in the Lab Oven. Once the raw product is fully cooked, utilize a hammer to break it down into usable Cocaine bits. Finally, package the bits into sachets or jars, and they’re ready for sale.
As anticipated, Cocaine commands the highest base selling price among available products. You can further elevate its value by utilizing a Drying Rack.
