BY COLLECTIVE HERBTissue culture production planning
Connect the lab
to the grow.
Know which plants are needed, when they are needed and what the lab needs to do next.
Clonedock brings the production plan and plant records together, so the grow team and lab can work from the same information.
See how the work connects
01 / Production planning
One plan.
Both sides of the handoff.
The grow sets the need. The lab plans the stages and records the work. When counts or dates change, both teams can review what that means for the next handoff.
- The grow team
Set the need.
Choose the varieties, plant counts and date the grow needs them.
VarietyQuantityNeeded by - The lab team
Plan the work.
Work back through multiplication, rooting and hardening. Compare the plan with plants already in the lab.
MultiplyRootHarden - Both teams
Review the handoff.
Check the latest counts against the target. Review any gap before agreeing on what can move next.
AvailableNeededNext steps
When plans change
The grow needs plants sooner.
Review what is already rooting or hardening, check the work still needed and agree on a realistic handoff. Keep that conversation tied to the latest plant records.
Setup and onboarding included
Start with one
production need.
Bring the records you use today. We review the setup with you, then work through a first plan using your varieties, counts and dates. You do not need a full history in Clonedock to begin.
- 01
Bring the starting records.
Your variety list, counts by stage, media recipes and one upcoming plant request. Bring existing spreadsheets so we can review their structure and what needs preparing for onboarding.
- 02
Set up the lab together.
We help configure your workspace and team access. Review the time each stage takes and label any estimates used in the plan. Agree who updates counts and records transfers.
- 03
Walk through the first handoff.
Review the target against current plants. When a batch moves, record the handoff, record the quantity against the relevant production order and check the next task together.
A useful plan stays current because the team records the work. Review early estimates against completed cycles as that history develops.
02 / Culture tracking
Keep the plant’s
history with the work.
Keep cultivar identity, lineage and stage records together. Track nodal and meristem lines distinctly and record the work that moves cultures forward.
- Record initiation, transfers and output.
- Connect media and observations to the run.
- Prepare vessel labels and review screening history.
In practiceA culture record or screening entry is not a certification that a plant is pathogen-free. Results and observations need the lab’s review.
03 / Media & lab health
See what is working
for each variety.
Compare recorded media performance by cultivar and review contamination and screening records. Use the patterns to decide what deserves a closer look at the bench.
- Keep media recipes and preparation records.
- Review cultivar-specific outcomes across recorded runs.
- Keep contamination observations and screening history visible.
In practicePerformance analytics and the Metrc worksheet serve different purposes. Analytics help you review the lab; the worksheet supports your team’s reporting checks.
04 / Manual Metrc worksheet
Review counts.
Then report in Metrc.
A manual worksheet your team checks against Metrc. Review population counts, batch and tag notes, and reporting confirmations in one place; your team completes the report separately.
- Review the lab’s recorded counts and changes.
- Check and update Metrc separately.
- Record the reporting confirmation in Clonedock.
In practiceNo Metrc API connection. No automatic submission. Your team remains responsible for reviewing and completing its reporting.
Planning in practice
Keep the plan useful.
How do we plan tissue culture production?
Start with the number of plants needed and the handoff date. Review the time needed for multiplying shoots, growing roots and preparing plants to leave the lab. Check your current counts, set the stage schedule and review progress as your team records the work.
What if a variety grows slower than expected?
Update the records and review the plan against the plants available. Check whether counts, stage timing or the target date need to change. A plan helps the team see a gap; it cannot guarantee how plants will grow.
What do we need for our first production plan?
Bring your variety list, plant counts by stage, required plant numbers and dates. Review stage timings and growth assumptions with the lab. You can start with estimates, then review them against recorded results. Setup and onboarding are included.
