The Collection Table, the plantation and the lab in depth

Got a base? Then the small stuff in your pockets can turn into a fat crate.

The Collection Table (Collection Table)

• You unlock it in Larry's Tree, buy it on the laptop and place it at your base.
• Items that are good for collections have a magnifying glass in the inventory.
• You put them in the collection tab. The table shows you what's missing.
• When it's complete, press Pack and you get a crate. The crate is cargo and sells at the Smuggler.
• There are 34 collections: 7 basic, 7 additional, 10 special, 10 unique. The last three types unlock with documents.
• A crate is worth more than the items sold separately: from ~$50,000 for the basic ones up to ~$500,000 for the unique ones.

Tip: Many collections ask for 10 pieces of one type: alcohol, car parts, electronics, medications. Collect them early.

The plantation

• The bush is cargo: you find it on heists and put it on the table.
• When the clock turns into a checkmark, you harvest (~5 seconds) and get packages (Harvest Package, ~$4,000 each at the Fence).
• The bush stays on the table and grows again, with the same rarity.

The lab

• The reactor makes concentrate, the freezer turns it into crystals. The crystals go to the Smuggler.
• On the Lab Table you can make powder for the Fence.
• The smoke above gives the lab away. If you interrupt a batch, you lose the reagent.

Tip: With cargo in your arms, don't pull out a weapon: you drop it, and the cops can take it from you.
