During a harvest, Grow Technicians cut down mature, flowering cannabis plants, separate viable material from waste material, and output the total viable weight to a Bulk Lot for processing. Grow Technicians can customize the harvesting workflow to suit the needs of their facility.

Note: Ample Organics recommends this harvest method over the others. In addition to being the most efficient, it only requires Grow Technicians to weigh the cannabis once, which eliminates the possibility of unaccounted weight post-harvest.
To Weigh Individual Plants:

Scan a plant. This opens a weighing page for that individual plant.
Enter the plant's pre-trimming weight in the field provided.
Click Confirm to harvest the plant.
Repeat steps 2-4 until all desired plants from the batch have been harvested.
To Weigh Plants in Aggregate:
Select Weigh Plants in Aggregate from the Harvest Options menu. This returns the Grow Technician to the batch's Harvest page.
Scan a plant to identify it as part of the harvest. This directs the Grow Technician to a page displaying all plants that have been scanned so far.
Stay on this page, and scan every plant that is to be part of the harvest.
Caution: Clicking Back will remove all plants from the harvest.
Once the Grow Technician has scanned all plants, click Weight Plants. This opens a weighing page for the batch plants.

Click Next. This opens a Harvest confirmation page.
Click Confirm to harvest the plants.
Output viable cannabis weight to the Bulk Lot.
Note: Some license holders perform a wet trim during the harvest phase, in which Grow Technicians separate the branches from the stalks, hang the branches up to dry, and discard the waste. Other license holders do not perform a wet trim and instead hang the entire plants to dry. In either case, the weight output to the Bulk Lot should be the weight of all material transferred to drying racks.
Click Output Weight to Fresh Lot. This opens a weighing page.
Enter the total weight, in grams, to transfer to the Bulk Lot in the field provided.
Click Confirm to transfer the weight to the Bulk Lot.
Destroy any harvest waste. This may include material removed during a wet trim, spilled material, or non-viable material like stalks and leaves.
