Purpose
The Split Batch by Plants feature, found on the Cultivation Batch Detail page, allows users to divide plants into one or multiple batches. This process automatically generates a Work Order to record the batch split.
What can you do with it?
With Split Batch by Plants, you can:
Divide a single batch into two new batches
Create an offshoot batch from an existing one
Move plants to another active batch
Track the split process with detailed work orders
This flexibility helps you manage your cultivation workflow more effectively, whether you're expanding your operation or isolating specific plant groups.
How is it done?
Choose your split type:
Select either "Two New Batches" or "Offshoot Batch"
For Two New Batches:
Fill in details for both new batches:
Name (optional, defaults to Batch ID)
Location
Number of Plants
Description
For Offshoot Batch:
Choose to split to a new batch or existing batch
Provide details for the destination batch:
Name (for new batch)
Location
Number of Plants
Description
If splitting to an existing batch:
Select the destination batch
Specify the number of plants to move
Set the move date (defaults to current date/time if left empty)
Add Work Order details:
Description
Equipment used
Records to attach
Review and confirm the split operation
Important Considerations
The total number of plants across all batches must equal the original batch count
Location fields auto-fill with the current batch's location but can be changed
Work Orders are automatically generated to track the split process
Backdating is possible but should be used carefully
Best Practices
Use clear, descriptive names for new batches to easily identify them later
Double-check the number of plants in each batch before confirming the split
Add detailed notes in the Work Order description for future reference
Regularly review and update your batch management process to improve efficiency
