Introduction
Weed, or Cannabis, is one of the most accessible illegal items to run when you are first becoming financially stable enough to be able to afford armaments to protect yourself and large enough vehicles in order to increase your profits.
Starting the Run
Before starting this run, it is strongly recommended to check the price of marijuana for optimal profits and to follow the list below to make sure you have all the required equipment.
- [Food & Water https://wiki.olympus-entertainment.com/wiki/Virtual_Items]
- Bergen Backpack for space
- A [vehicle https://wiki.olympus-entertainment.com/wiki/Civilian_Vehicles] to store the marijuana/cannabis
- Marijuana processing license ($17,500 at the processor)
- Head to the Weed Field east of Kavala to fill your vehicle and optionally your backpack using left windows key in the weed field area.
Processing Marijuana
- Head southwest of the weed field to the weed processor to turn your goods into marijuana.
- To process, scroll wheel on the NPC inside of the house, you can either process from the vehicle or from your backpack and must remain within 25m of the NPC.
- Before pressing Process, it will give you the time required to process. Canceling processing will process items up to the progress you obtained.
Processing Hash
After you finish processing you will notice that there is an option to “double process” your marijuana into Hash. This will take more time but you will have the same processing bonus bar from any bonus received for processing cannabis into hash. The hash will give you a significant increase in profit upon selling (x1.25 current price) so if you believe yourself prepared to double your processing time it will be well worth it.
Selling
After you are done processing it is best to leave the processor as quickly as possible and begin your way towards the Kavala drug dealer. Going through the city is ill-advised at best so you will want to go North on the MSR to avoid it entirely. Once you are within a reasonable distance it is also recommended that you try to scope the area out from a distance to ensure nobody is camping the dealer or already using it to sell drugs before you arrive. To interact with the drug dealer simply scroll wheel, double click the amount of drugs you have in your inventory to select all of the marijuana/hash in your inventory, and click sell. Once you are done, deposit your money in the nearby ATM at the Turtle Dealer before carrying on.
Payout
The average payout for a weed run using a box truck and a bergen backpack (210 weed) is $231,842 for marijuana and $289,802 for hash. If your gang is in control of the cartel it will allow you to hold onto 15% more of the profits which is otherwise paid as gang tax to the controlling gang (cartel Price $266,618 and $333,272 respectively)
Run Time
Using a tier 4 box truck the run took 25 minutes and 16 seconds. The alternate route posted above will be 23 minutes. If one was to double process it would take 39 minutes.
