Unlocking Coca Seeds in Schedule 1 is a major step toward leveling up your operation. Once you start growing coca, you’re no longer playing small—it opens the door to high-profit products, advanced processing, and a whole new layer of strategy. Here’s how to unlock coca seeds and get that next-level money flow going.
To unlock coca seeds in Schedule 1, you’ll need to make significant progress in the main story or reach a specific point in your empire’s development. Typically, this happens once you’ve completed a set of mid-to-late-game objectives, such as:
- Expanding your territory to a specific level
- Establishing a lab or indoor grow facility
- Reaching a high enough respect or heat threshold to trigger new contacts
Once those conditions are met, you’ll be contacted by a new supplier—usually through an encrypted message or underground contact in one of the higher-tier neighborhoods. The message may hint at a “rare new seed” or invite you to a meeting that unlocks the coca strain.
Once unlocked, coca seeds will appear in your seed inventory or purchase menu, but they often come with a steep price tag. Make sure your funds and growing space are ready before you invest.
Keep in mind that coca plants require different care than standard weed strains. They need special lighting, climate controls, and take longer to mature. You’ll also need processing stations to convert raw coca into more valuable end products like paste or powder—depending on your operation’s direction.
Selling coca-based products is highly profitable, but it also comes with increased police attention, surveillance risk, and moral consequences that can affect your reputation or dealer loyalty depending on your choices.
If you’re ready to scale up and dominate the market, unlocking coca seeds is the move—but be prepared for the heat that comes with it.
