It was useful as part of this flow to insert a short demonstration of how to properly take cuttings from a Mother plant. For that purpose, we have Karl Kulik giving the best approach to select and take a branch cutting. This cutting will root in the AEtrium SmartFarm in 3-5 days and it will be a bushy 12 inch tall rooted Clone in 10-12 days.
This segment covers the RAIR aeroponic Clone & Veg room where they take cuttings from their mother room and grow them into rooted Clones, pinch off the tops, and in a total of 4 weeks deliver a bushy Veg plant to their next available Flower room. Zero soil is used throughout the facility.
Their continuous harvest process has a capacity of more than 300,000 clones per year in four 48-tray SmartFarm systems with the growth and harvest process staged and synchronized for their next available flower room.
