TRAINING AND KEEPING DATA
Keeping the environment and
all stages of the plant clean is
a big feat. It takes a lot of time
and planning to get it right.
Attention to detail is a must.
Also, being able to act fast and
come up with solutions in a
timely manner is key. Educating
employees on sanitation
procedures and why each is

is trained and understands the
reasons behind a practice, they
have the ability to come up with
their own ideas on how to make
the process better.

is an important part of this
process. Data is key to making
educated decisions and helps
to prevent repeating mistakes.
Tracking chemical efficacy,
predator viability, genetic data,
rooting yields, environmental
controls and fertilizer rates, are
all important in the cultivation
of cannabis.
Cannabis has not had the
long history of research other
commercially produced
plants have. There is still
so much to learn about
cannabis cultivation and that
is what makes it exciting and
interesting to grow. v
