Spice — Grow, Pack & Sell

Spice is a grow-and-pack drug worth $500 cash. The field and lab are far apart, so plan a round trip. It's also one of the two drugs sold at Up Hill Selling.

Overview

• Type: Grow → package → sell
• Final product: spice_pouch (optional refine → spice_joint ×5)
• Best sell: $500 cash (Smoke on the Water)

Requirements

What	Why you need it	Where
Skill-check minigame (lv2)	Every process step runs a skill check. Miss it and the craft doesn't complete — you keep the inputs, you lose the time.	At the lab
Supplies	Consumed by the recipe (see the buy list below).	Corner Store -2193.74, -388.87, 12.47
burnerphone	Only if you want to sell to NPCs on the street with /startsell. The static dealer buys without it.	—
A vehicle	Spice Field is on the Paleto coast and the Spice Lab is over in Grapeseed — the two are far apart, so batch your leaves.	Any car — the route is the real cost

The lv1–lv5 tag on each recipe is minigame difficulty, not a character level you have to grind first — lv1 is a single easy skill check, while lv5 stacks an easy, a medium and two hard ones. A brand new character can start this chain today; what actually gates you is travel time and the police.

What You Get & Where to Sell

Product	Spawn code	Sell price
Spice Pouch	spice_pouch	$500 cash (Smoke on the Water)
— via NPC/corner	spice_pouch	$200–400 markedbills/cash (Grove / Up Hill Selling)

Two Ways to Sell

1. Static dealer — fixed price, clean money. Drive to Smoke on the Water -1172.1, -1571.8, 4.7 and sell spice_pouch for $500 cash. The price never moves, there is no minigame, and the sale itself does not generate a police alert. This is the reliable route.

2. Street selling — /startsell, dirty money. Carry a burnerphone, run /startsell, and NPC customers walk up to you. Each sale is 1–3 units at a random $200–$400, paid in markedbills — the drug pack's dirty currency. That is not the same black_money the robbery pack pays out, so the two launder separately. /stopsell ends the session.

Street selling is slower per unit, but it is the only way to generate markedbills:

• Some customers refuse the sale and walk off.
• Some try to rob you instead of paying.
• A sale can alert police and sheriff — dispatch drops a blip on you that stays live for about a minute, so move on after a run of sales.
• Selling works anywhere on the map, not just inside a marked zone, so pick somewhere quiet.

💰 Cost vs Reward

	Amount
Setup (one-time)	lighter $15 — never consumed
Cost per pouch	pouch_bag $5 (+ rolling_paper $5 only if you roll joints)
Time per pouch	10 leaves picked, then a 5s lv2 craft — the fastest pouch craft of the grown drugs
Sell price	$500 cash at Smoke on the Water
Profit per pouch	≈ $495 once the lighter is paid off

Using It — Effects, Addiction & Overdose

Every drug in the pack is also usable, and that side of it matters if you are roleplaying a user rather than a cook:

• Using spice_joint restores health and armour, cuts stress, and buffs run speed, with a screen effect and a changed walk style while it lasts.
• Each use adds addiction and tolerance. As those climb you start losing health, and you risk passing out or vomiting at the worst possible moment.
• Overdose triggers at 10 uses of the same drug, or 5 uses across mixed drugs.
• Cures are sold at the Corner Store: acamprosate $500 (light detox), lofexidine $3,000 (heavy detox), and antidote $3,000 for an overdose.
• Police carry a drugtestkit. Whatever you took stays in your blood for about 5 minutes after use — long enough to fail a roadside test.

Common Mistakes

• Driving field-to-lab with one pouch worth of leaves. That round trip crosses most of the north map.
• Forgetting spice is one of only two drugs on the Up Hill Selling list — if you want markedbills, that zone is built for it.

Tips

• Field (Paleto coast) and Lab (Grapeseed) are far apart — batch your leaves.
• Spice is one of the two drugs sold at Up Hill Selling.

FAQ

How much is a Spice Pouch worth?

$500 clean cash at Smoke on the Water (-1172.1, -1571.8, 4.7), the same as weed and flakka.

Where is the Spice Field?

On the Paleto coast at -2203.2, 5110.2, 10.0. The Spice Lab that packs it is at 2433.6, 4968.8, 42.3 in Grapeseed — a long haul across the north.

How many spice leaves per pouch?

spice_leaf ×10, plus a lighter and a pouch bag. The craft is a 5-second lv2 skill check.

Weed or Spice — which should I farm?

Identical pay and near-identical inputs. Weed has the shorter field-to-lab run; spice has the faster craft and is on the Up Hill street-selling list. Pick by where you already are.
