What sources do you get your immature plants from?
Create clones from mother plants in the existing facility
Once initial plant inventory is in your facility, learn how to create new immature plant batches from mother plants.
Supply clones/seeds from my other cultivation licenses
Learn how to complete the process of creating clones or seeds in one license that you own, and finishing the cultivation cycle in another of your licenses.
- Follow these steps to create a package of cuttings taken from mother plants in your nursery license.
Note - this will not remove quantity from the plant batch's immature count. - If cuttings are already in a plant batch of their own, follow these steps to package the immature plants
Note - this will remove quantity from the plant batch's immature count. - Once the package is created, you will create a transfer to your flowering license. Follow these steps to create an outgoing transfer.
- Receive the incoming transfer in the receiving cultivation facility following these steps for non-Metrc facilities
- Once you've received the incoming transfer, you will see the packages received in your Packages table. Follow these steps to unpack these packages into new plant batches in the receiving license to continue the cultivation process.
Additional for Metrc Facilities
As a Metrc facility, you will need to receive the incoming transfer in your Metrc account due to Metrc API limitations. For facilities not connected to a compliance system, you will receive the incoming transfer in Canix to create the packages using these steps.
Purchase clones/seeds from a 3rd party
Learn how to receive incoming transfers in Canix using these steps for non-Metrc facilities.
Once the incoming transfer is received, the packages are available in your Packages table. Follow these steps to unpack these packages into new plant batches to begin the cultivation cycle in Canix.
Additional for Metrc Facilities
As a Metrc facility, you will need to receive the incoming transfer in your Metrc account, due to Metrc API limitations.
Packaging clones for storage or transfers?
If transferring clones between your own facilities, see the previous section for immature plant sources for guidance on the full process.
Packaging clones already in the system as plant batches
Learn more about packaging from plant batches to remove the immature plant count.
Packaging cuttings from mother plants
Learn more about packaging clones from mother plants. This does not reduce the immature count in plant batches.
How do you track cultivation non-cannabis materials?
By recipe, applied to plants on a schedule
Learn how Canix's task management module creates recurring tasks with non-cannabis inventory to be applied to plant, harvest or package inventory.
Automate application of materials and cost at the end of the cultivation cycle
Learn how to create a bill of material (BOM) with materials used during cultivation to automatically apply to packages created from a harvest.
Manually apply materials and cost per plant batch or location
Learn how to apply labor, non-cannabis inventory or bills of material to plant inventory ad hoc.
To assign NCI or BOMs to plant batches and plant inventory, see here.
To assign Labor to plant batches and plant inventory, see here.
Where did your plant waste come from?
Loose waste, not from destroyed plants
Learn how to create waste outside of the destroy plants flow.
Additional for Metrc facilities
For Metrc facilities, waste must be uploaded to Metrc after submitting. A ready-to-go CSV will be emailed to the user who submitted the action in Canix to upload in Metrc without the need to edit anything. Follow these steps to upload the waste in Metrc.
Waste from destroyed plants
Learn how to log waste when processing plant destruction. Metrc facilities do not have an extra step for logging waste when processing with plant destruction.
When is your plant changing locations?
At the same time as changing growth phase
Learn how to change plant locations when changing growth phases.
Outside of growth phase changes
Learn how to change plant and plant batch locations at any time.
What plant phases/stages do you track?
Required compliance phases only (Immature, Vegetative, Flowering)
Learn how to change the compliance growth phase for plants and plant batches.
Some plant phases/stages between the required compliance phases
Learn about custom growth phases in Canix to track plant phases or sizes between the compliance phase, such as pot size or teens.
How do you harvest your plants?
Harvest the entire plant and log individual plant weights
Learn how to enter individual plant weights from the Flowering Plants table.
To bulk upload harvested plants and their weights from a spreadsheet, follow these steps.
Additionally, Canix partners with Stashstock and Outlaw for mobile harvesting options.
Harvest the entire plant and log average plant weight
Learn how to enter average weights on a harvest, or follow these steps to randomize harvest weights.
Manicure part of the plant and log individual plant weight
Learn how to create manicures from the Flowering Plants table.
Manicure part of the plant and log average plant weight
Learn how to enter average weights on a manicure, or follow these steps to randomize harvest weights.
