Strains 4-8 (the weed-based ones) have the best profit-to-complexity ratio. Grandmaster Kush requires just 4 ingredients and 2 Mixing Stations but nets ~$145 per unit. Compare that to the God Mix which needs 5 stations and expensive cocaine base but only nets ~3x more per unit. For early automation, Grandmaster Kush is the most efficient recipe to start with.

The margin percentages reveal a counter-intuitive truth: weed-based strains (Ocean OG at 1,054% margin) have WAY higher profit margins than cocaine strains (God Mix at 219%). But the absolute profit per unit is much lower. The decision comes down to: do you want high volume with low complexity (weed) or low volume with high per-unit profit (cocaine)? For automated production, weed wins on throughput. For dealer-limited setups, cocaine wins.

Practical Example

You have a Bungalow with 2 Mixing Stations and want to maximize profit with a 4-ingredient recipe.

Option A: Grandmaster Kush (OG Kush + Horse Semen + Mega Bean + Gasoline)

  • 2 stations, 4 ingredients
  • $170 sell price, ~$17 cost
  • $153 profit per unit
  • 8-12 units/day with Bungalow automation
  • Daily profit: ~$1,224-1,836

Option B: Cocaine 2-mix

  • 2 stations, 2 ingredients
  • ~$120 sell price, ~$70 cost (coca seeds are expensive)
  • $50 profit per unit
  • 8-12 units/day
  • Daily profit: ~$400-600

Winner: Grandmaster Kush makes roughly 3x more profit per day with the same setup. Cocaine becomes better only when you have 5+ stations (Barn/Warehouse scale).
