How to Create a New Batch from Cuttings – Gun App

Last updated on Feb 03, 2026

When propagating cannabis plants, Grow Technicians can preserve desirable traits by taking cuttings from a Mother plant to create a new batch of genetically identical plants.

When a Grow Technician creates a new batch from cuttings, whether it's through the Grow module or the Gun App, the Seed-to-Sale software generates a record of the cutting event and saves the report to the Cutting Reports sub-tab.

Required permission(s): batch_create

  1. In the Grow Room module, click New Batch.

  9. Click Create Batch & Log Cuttings to finalize the new batch. This also saves a record of the cutting event to the Cutting Reports sub-tab in the Grow module.


Logging cuttings through the Gun App is one of four ways to create a new batch. Grow Technicians can also Create a New Batch from Cuttings, Create a Batch from a Seed Lot, or Create a Batch from Wholesale Plants in the Grow module.
