Harvests in BioTrack have 3 steps before the harvest is created with wet weights - Designating plants as a harvest batch, scheduling the harvest batch to be harvested, and harvesting the plants with wet weights. Canix combines these into 1 step, and submits to BioTrack with the requirements needed for each of the 3 steps. Follow these steps to create and manage the harvest through Canix.
