Cultivation SOP
Pre-Harvest Protocols
1. Light Calibration
Objective: Simulate autumnal light conditions to enhance resin production.
Procedure:
Utilize varied lighting sources while decreasing overall intensity.
Configure LED lights to operate at 40% intensity.
Elevate the lights to increase the distance from the plants.
Mimic the lighting characteristics typical of October (autumn).
2. Light Cessation
Objective: Induce stress in the plant to promote resin enhancement.
Procedure:
Deactivate all lighting for a duration of 48-72 hours prior to harvesting.
3. Temperature Optimization
Objective: Create plant stress through temperature reduction.
Procedure:
Lower the ambient temperature to a range of 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit.
4. Final Stress Application
Objective: Activate the plant’s self-defense mechanisms to increase resin output.
Procedure:
Allow the plant to perceive that it is nearing the conclusion of its life cycle.
Diligently monitor for signs of increased resin production in female plants.
