ROB RUN Grow Room Guide: Setup Budget, Bushes, Harvests and Selling

An empty six-table room ties up more money without growing anything. Start by matching table capacity to the bushes you can actually obtain and deliver.

A house and rented plot are needed for the Grow Room. Research the room first, then Grow Table, and buy the equipment through the base laptop. The room has six table positions; each table holds six bushes. A full room therefore has 36 planted bushes.

Research is paid once per equipment unlock, not once for every copy. The room lists $150,000 research and $100,000 purchase; the table lists $30,000 research and $40,000 purchase. Begin with fewer tables if that preserves money for inputs and protection.

Room plus first table requires $180,000 in research and $140,000 in purchases: $320,000 before the house, plot, bushes, upgrades and security. Filling all six table positions adds five more $40,000 table purchases, without repeating the table research.

That makes a fully fitted room $520,000 in these listed research and purchase costs, before those additional expenses. Treat this as a setup budget, not an amount recovered in one harvest.

Growing Bushes are world-found cargo. Put them into the Grow Table and watch the status: a clock means growth, a tick means maturity. Harvesting takes approximately five seconds and leaves the bush planted for the next cycle at the same rarity.

You can sell a growing or mature bush to the Smuggler as cargo instead, but that removes the producer. If table space is available, keeping the bush supports repeat Harvest Package sales. Drawing a weapon drops a carried bush and Police can seize cargo during transport.

Carry the Growing Bush to the prepared Grow Table and place it in an available position. When it is mature, use the table’s Harvest interaction and collect the Harvest Packages. Check the bush’s next growth state; harvesting the output and picking up the producer are different actions.

Use this distinction when planning the buyer: sell packages to the Fence for repeat production, or sell the bush as cargo to the Smuggler if you want to give up that producer. The clip’s elapsed time and output count are not a guaranteed cycle or yield.

Uncommon, epic and legendary Harvest Packages list $4,000, $6,000 and $8,000 base sales. Bush cargo values differ from package values, so do not count a one-time bush sale as recurring production.

Fan, Water Pump and UV Lamp occupy distinct slots and can all be installed. Listed growth-speed bonuses are 12%, 14% and 24%. Some settlement buildings can add a chance of one or two extra packages, but that chance is not quantified. Do not turn an unreported extra yield into a guaranteed hourly income.

If six uncommon bushes each produce one package, six × $4,000 gives $24,000 base package value for that batch. At epic package prices the same six single packages total $36,000; at legendary prices they total $48,000. These are conditional output values, before actual offers and all production costs.

A full room has six times the bush positions, but it only gives six times those single-package totals if every position is filled and completes that assumed batch. Extra-package chance is unquantified. Do not convert capacity or the roughly five-second harvest interaction into an hourly earnings promise.

The Grow Room starts with 5 defence and nine fuse slots. Machinery and bushes are investments worth protecting independently from production-speed upgrades. Choose how you will carry packages to the Fence and return without risking the next batch’s equipment.

A five-second harvest interaction is not the growing cycle. Timing income also needs cycle duration, downtime, transport and actual sale conditions. Start from the known capacity and package values instead of multiplying the interaction time into an hourly-profit claim.
