Guide to Ghetto Chemistry
 |
George Melons, the Assistant says: "Hey, kid. Wanna buy some Space Drugs? You askin' how I made it? Well, I threw a bunch of random trash an'a dead mouse in a blender and heated it up with a lighter, of course! Easy as that." |
Starting out[edit]
So, you are an average Greytide and you want to be a Walter White. How do you do it? First off, you're gonna wanna get these things to get started with ghetto chem.
A few beakers, soda cans, bottles, etc
A couple of tables to store your beakers, so you don't spill your shit on the floor
Most importantly, without this you dont have ghetto chem:
Optionally:
A ChemMaster 3000 to separate and bottle chemicals.
tl;dr go to the holodeck and boot up the medical program! Remember that you can use matches, lighters, and igniters to heat containers as well.
Grindables[edit]
Not only can you steal things, but you can also shove them into a grinder to retrieve chemicals from them!
If you're stealing from Botany, check out the Guide to hydroponics.
